You should be able to copy the CSS from the Firebug panel and paste it over the CSS in your style.css file. This will work in most cases.

NB: The -moz-background properties are browser (Firefox) specific and may not be required in a lot of cases, such as this one.

Although the documentation is showing the use of the “{}” (curly) brackets, have your tried the “[]” (square) brackets?

Such as: [CALENDAR]

Most scripts will generally be found in or link to from the header.php file of your active theme.

It appears you are using the “Default” theme so do keep in mind with the next update of WordPress you may end up over-writing all these changes you have made; and, you may need to re-edit as needed.

That being the case, this may help with the “subscribe” link (from sidebar.php in the Default theme):

<?php
/**
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Default_Theme
 */
?>
<div id="sidebar" role="complementary">
  <ul>
    <li>
      <!-- Your special edits in between this new 'li' block -->
      <a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=Horseandmancom&loc=en_US">Subscribe to horseandman.com by Email</a>
    </li>
    <?php /* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */

Both items may be theme related, especially threaded comments “not appearing”. You may find it useful to provide a link to your blog and the name of your active theme to get additional suggestions.

My first thought would be to expect a theme related issue for your “home” link.

Instead of the “code” above try this:

!is_page('contact') || !is_front_page()

This page in the codex may be useful: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/in_category

Try something like the following:

<?php if ( !(in_category( (array('4','four','4th')) ) || !is_home() ) { ?>
<!-- Output the post here -->

Replacing the elements in the ‘array’ with your specific choices.
