I build my own websites - self tought- so forgive me if you might think I am blonde or something, but I tried going to the admin of the program to the upload part for new plug-ins I downloaded the newsfeed but it called for me to open it when I wanted to upload the file to the plug in area but it only let me open the file and upload one part at a time, which I knew wasn't right so I didn't, how do I upload the whole file? not parts of it, is there anouther way to replace and install the the whole file can i use my FTP program some how? I tried that and it didn't work I understand what you mean by replacing the plug in. can you give softcaulous the newsfeed file that works when we install it from our hosting company? Thank you for your replies I will get through this with your help... :) replacing the whole program is a whole new world to me but with help I may be able to do it i use a hosting company but they don't help with these softcaulous programs ...CW
