Oh, the “joys” of owning a self-hosted website!
😕
(Well, to be fair, I mostly love being a “webmaster, ” just not when things go wonky. It’s a great learning experience, though!)
Weird happenings at The Doglady’s Den website! 😜
I’ve been having technical difficulties the last couple of days and now, I see my last post got re-published, plus a draft test post. To my subscribers: Sorry for the extra emails! #dogladysden #webmasterwoes pic.twitter.com/8T5hTTnS74— Debbie D. 🇨🇦🇩🇪 (@DebbieDoglady) September 30, 2022
For cryin’ out loud @bluehostsupport @bluehost!
Stop publishing test posts on my site to solve an issue that is now fixed! 😠 You must realize, this triggers an email to subscribers, which is annoying at best and an unsubscribable offence at worse! #dogladysden #knockitoff pic.twitter.com/8Vfz5N1Mik— Debbie D. 🇨🇦🇩🇪 (@DebbieDoglady) October 1, 2022
Hopefully, the issues have been resolved now, but please let me know if you encounter anything unusual.
Thanks for your patience!

Hey Debbie,
Don’t worry about it. These things happen. I do hope all is corrected, though. I know how annoying website problems can be. 🙂 Cheeri-o!…mmm, that makes me want breakfast. How about you? lol
Hi Cathy, my perfectionist self throws a fit when things go wrong, but then I calm down and try to find the solution. All seems okay, now. ? Cheerios! Had those for breakfast this morning. 🙂 Thanks for coming by.
Feel your pain. Hope it sorts out soon.
Seems okay, now. Thanks, Fran! 🙂
There you are! Hang in there, it will get better. At least that’s what I tell myself 😉
Of course, it always does, eventually. Seems okay, now. Thanks for dropping in, diedre. 🙂
I loved having a self-hosted site until I got frequent emails that my site was offline. I hope your site woes are resolved soon.
Nice to see you here, Eugenia. 🙂 I’ve been mostly lucky, with very few outages over nine years, but the last couple of days have been a pain. Still, I learn something new every time and (mostly) enjoy the challenge of trying to figure out how to fix it. Thanks for coming by and have a pleasant week!
Web Woes are a common occurrence sometimes. I hate getting an email from my blog host saying your site if off-line. Really? you can’t just fix it without getting me all work up? I hope your problems are mild and are easily handled. Enjoy fall!
It looks good Debbie. Oh yes, been there and done that. I hired a techie years ago to help when things get really hairy with the self-hosted blog. I get confused with setting up one from the beginning, not easy for sure! But you need lots of patience.
It’s great being a webmaster when everything is working the way it should, isn’t it?
Mercury madness continues, affecting tech life. <3
I had one email notification of a post that didn”t exist, or had been deleted. Then I was notified of this one that appeared as usual. Glad to hear you managed to sort it out. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Hi Debbie – sounds horrid – but congratulations on knowing what’s going on! Seems ok … cheers Hilary
