Comment on Elizabeth Ann Ashcroft by Kay Walker

Hi, I've just started exploring my partner's Ashcrofts, which include a stack of Elizabeths. He also has Holmes in his Tree, from Kent. His Ashcrofts came from Stepney where Jane Ashcroft (b. 1800) married James Thomas in 1822 & produced a family of children including George Ashcroft Thomas, William Ashcroft Thomas plus Henry, Ebinezer, Mary Jane, Eliza and Jane. These names have been carried on from the previous generation in her family, where brothers & sisters were Henry, Charles Ebenezer, William, Elizabeth and Susannah. The Ashcrofts in London were easy to group and trace at first with the help of the IGI and I've been able to make some family groups with the clear info on father/mothers' names at Christenings. However, the Ashcroft link quickly ran out in London and the only marriage of a George Ashcroft & Ann Parker to be the parents of my definite William Ashcroft, took place in Cheshire. Why William and his siblings were all born in London when their parents came from Cheshire is a mystery! Cheshire seems to be the origin of many Ashcrofts and looks very difficult to figure out. Have you got any links to this mob of Ashcrofts in Northenden, Cheshire that include the names George, Henry, William, Ebenezer, Jane & Elizabeth?

Comment on NamesCo, WordPress & the iPad by Jason King

Having the same problem with Namesco. Solving it by moving elsewhere. Other Namesco issues affecting WordPress have included: - Files and folders created with incorrect permissions, particularly affecting uploaded files. - PHP memory running out if a few plugins are installed, even though phpinfo reports that memory settings are high. - Permalinks require /index.php/ in them. Why the hell do they use Zeus servers? They offer an Apache to Zeus .htaccess conversion tool but it doesn't work. Had enough.

I've had this issue with Namesco also, I've had god knows how many arguments with Namesco Support about this issue, I've asked them why they are penalising users who do update there Wordpress installations and not going after the people who don't update, I've even suggested that they migrate all updated Wordpress users to a separate server so that they can at least be allowed to use the xml-rpc function, however it just falls on deaf ears. My advice is that all of us who are having this issue leave Namesco/Cheapnames for another provider who does allow this function, then perhaps they might actually do something to resolve the issue. Perhaps they should contact all those users with out of date wordpress installations and inform them to update or have there websites disabled due to security issues with there outdated Wordpress installations, but hey that would be to easy I expect. Anyway anyone know of any Webhosts who do allow xml-rpc posting in the meantime . . . ?

As per the above, in Vista, it's worth first just running a basic 'diagnose and repair' in the 'Network and Sharing Center'.
