no title? multiple dates? no trackback info?

    Hi, I have a bunch of questions that I thought I’d consolidate so not to clutter the forum too much.
    1. How do I specify a title but then not have it show up on the page? (I need to specify it so in the browser its says my page’s title, but I have a graphic with the title so I don’t want it to show up. Masking it in color and mini size doesn’t seem to work so well.)
    2. Is it possible to put the date of the post above/below each individual entry that I put up? That is, let’s say I post two entries today, can the date show up on both? How?
    3. Is it possible to remove the following line from the individual entry pages?
    The URI to TrackBack this entry is: http://xyz
    Or are people only able to do trackback to a post if that info is there?
    Finally (4), what file is responsible for the individual entry pages? If I knew that I feel like I could figure uot the answer to #3 (maybe), but I realize I only know to tweak index.php. What do I tweak to change an archive entry page?
    Thanks!!

    1. remove <? the_title() ?> from index.php and add <?php single_post_title(); ?> to the title tag in the head of your index.php.
    2. use <? the_time() ?> with the approprite date settings. http://www.php.net/date
    3. that line is located in wp-comments.php. You can remove it but people won’t know the url to trackback your post. OR just disable trackbacks in Options -> Discussion — Allow link notifications from other Weblogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.)
    4. The individual entries are displayed with index.php and wp-comments.php is included in it, only when viewing a single post.

    for #3, if you use <? the_time() ?> instead of <?php the_date(); ?> it will show the date for EVERY post, even if it’s on the same day.
    for #1, I guess I should read more carefully, I was talking about something else 🙂
