Hi Janet,

I was having the font size problem few years back. It can be solved by using css stylesheet.

Hey, Janet, you seem to be getting some comment spam there (the last 4 comments, not including my previous one). I think the captcha you’re using was a great idea but has been “owned” by the hackers a long time ago. Akismet ought to solve your problems.

By the way, WordBay continues to develop, got a pretty stable version now (0.85BETA, see my link above).

I really needed some good usability info for. The great part is WordBay WordPress plugin 0.4BETA is free.

it looks a bit scrappy. I am not a designer unfortunately, but I will at least try to make sure the CSS follows the style of the template.

Just to let you know I fixed some of these bugs, like the cents not displaying.

The site refreshing one I am not sure about - no-one else has reported that. Anyway, thanks for all your feedback, and hope you find WordBay useful.

Came across your blog and found it to be very interesting.. Fantastic article covering some points I really needed some good usability info for. The great part is WordBay WordPress plugin 0.4BETA is free. I’ll surely try this on exrerimental basis. Thanks.

Hi guys, thanks for the write-up about WordBay Janet. Just to let you know that I have fixed the bug you mentioned about text not being displayed, so you can download the new 0.5BETA version.

As for the CSS for your sidebar getting screwed up, keep me posted about that - maybe I have left a tag open somewhere, or something. The styling aspect of WordBay does still need some work, it looks a bit scrappy. I am not a designer unfortunately, but I will at least try to make sure the CSS follows the style of the template.

Shawn, have a look at the install page (http://www.itsgottabered.com/wordbay/installing-and-configuring-wordbay/) - I haven’t got a solution for your problem yet, but will try and figure it out if you can give me some more clues. BTW, not sure when my site was down, but it must have just been a glitch.

As for earnings from eBay - it may sounds strange being as I am creating an eBay affiliate solution, but I don’t have any spectacular results from eBay still. I think volume is the key - you need lots of sites, lots of niches, lots of pages (some people are toting hundreds of sites!) And by the way, you need to move from CJ.COM asap WebSmall - you probably know, but eBay are pulling out of CJ soon.

I am an affiliate of ebay through cj.com. I have my ebay link code on several of my pages offering sign-up and the option to bid on backlinks. I’ve been promoting them for about a month and I have yet to get commission from them.

Have you ever bought links from ebay? It is worth the effort, but be sure and read the item description before buying.

Did you notice on your wordbay site it is only showing the cents and not the dollars of the bids? mine is doing the same thing and when I click on an auction my site just refreshes. I hope the plugin is fixed, I would really like it if it worked. I notice the author’s site is down, maybe he is fixing it and does not want anyone else to download the buggy one.
