    Hello!

    This is my first time here, I´ve read the forum rules and I´ll try to stick to them 🙂

    All I want to do is a super simple blog, with minimalistic sidebar. I have something like this in mind:

    http://razor.arnes.si/~ssdmsoke/maintemplate.png

    The sidebar, or left column, should not include any Archives, Categories and such. Only simple links to plain static HTML subsites. Is there any way to leave out Archives in the sidebar? I would like to include that in subpages.

    And a subpage would look like this:
    http://razor.arnes.si/~ssdmsoke/subsitetemplate.png

    I would very much apprechiate any suggestions and answers. Thank you!

    If you’re willing to put in a little work experimenting, you could build a basic theme like that almost completely from scratch. Your template files would be extremely simple.

    Otherwise, for an easier (but less educational) method, I would recommend finding the absolute most basic existing template and going through the usual trimming of tags and such. This page http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags explains what all the php tags do.

    I’m unsure of your level of experience with the php/CSS/etc. that goes on behind wordpress themes, so if needed just post here again and clarify your needs.
