In reply to: Get rid of top navigation on Comments pageModify the single.php file and look for the ‘<p class=”postmetadata alt”>’ which encapsulates that information. You should be able to delete the relevant stuff there.
You are using tables in your template? Wow..

In reply to: Can I connect to the database on different server?If the MySQL database on the other server has a specific IP/URL, then you’d enter that into wp-config.php instead of “localhost”.
But as Podz noted, most hosts don’t allow remove MySQL connections.

In reply to: How to customize the post’s ID?That particular number is auto incremented in the database. Making a new post take that particular ID isn’t a straight forward thing.
The issue is that the wp_posts table has the value and it’s also linked into wp_post2cat table to indicate which category the post belongs to.
So if you really want to do this, first ensure that the Post ID 33 is completely missing from the database, then create you new post. Take note of the new Post ID, then go into the database and replace the new ID with 33.

In reply to: Error running Postie ini_set() has been disabledThe error message ‘ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons’ is your answer. Your webhost has disabled this PHP functionality. You can contact them about it, but it is unlikely they will enable it and as such the posting emails functionailty will not work.

In reply to: Help with installation!When you upload files, you have to make sure to upload it in ASCII format.
So I would delete what you’ve uploaded and re-upload ensuring this format.

In reply to: Help with installation!Once you’ve modified the wp-config.php file on your local HD, upload that and all other files/directories to your webhost.
Unless you explicitely want your blog in a sub-directory, I’d just upload it to the base directory.

In reply to: RSS Feed uses one category?How are you looking at the feed? When I pull up the link I posted here in the forums in Firefox, I see 2 entries. If I change the category to “6” I get 10 articles which is the max default number set in the options.
If you are using a Feed reader, it might be only getting the latest?

In reply to: RSS Feed uses one category?As I said, if you have permalinks enabled you could use my syntax.
You don’t have them enabled so in your case..if you wanted to get the feed of the “News” category (I didn’t dare click the others as I’m at work 🙂 ) you’d use:
http://www.finger-pie.com/?cat=11&feed=rss2
So you basically add the “cat=<category id>&” portion.

In reply to: Help with installation!The database is used to store the posts, options and other aspects of your blog.
WP does not use a flat file for it’s storage.
So you need to ensure MySQL is configured and working first, then create a database for it to use and point it at it.

In reply to: RSS Feed uses one category?You get a specific categories feed by using a syntax like:
blog.com/archives/<category>/feed if you have permalinks enabled and “archives” is your base.

In reply to: when i delete a post in admin panel that contains a pictureThere is no inherent parsing done of post content to see what pictures or resources that particular post utilizes to free it up.
You will have to do this manually. I think this is a non-issue for most people as they usually never delete posts that they make.

In reply to: Permalinks Question — way to confirm they’re enabled?Forget the ‘permalink’ tag, as that is something that’s added by certain themes.
You know you have pretty permalinks working if you were to hover over the title of a post and see something like: blog.com/archives/2006/03/13/your-post-title in the status bar of your browser.
If you just see blog.com/?p=<post number> then you don’t have it enabled properly.
