Moshu, I’m wondering if Cybermis thinks that a post published on on his/her blog should also be displayed at WordPress.com … or something. If that’s not it, I’m not understanding what the question is.

Okay. But bear in mind that the upgrade instructions actually say to *delete* the old files before uploading the new ones. That’s different than overwriting the old files.

The issue is that, if you just overwrite the old files, sometimes the uploading doesn’t replace all the files, and leaves you open to problems.

(I’ve been building websites for 10 years, and would never have believed this until it happened to me.)

Yes, but the SecurityFocus article linked to above references this:

Software: WordPress < 2.1

My understanding is that, in 2.1, category links and blogroll links are intermingled. I can’t understand the reasoning for this, though — blogrolls are for links to other sites, while category links are for categories in the same blog.

That would not seem to be user-friendly. If I want to see a blogroll, I want to see a blogroll. If I want to see categories for that blog, that’s what I want … that is, what else did this person write about, not what did anyone else write about somewhere else. Oh well. ::shrug::

Would you not need it in the header.php?

I’d suggest searching the forums for “sidebar at bottom”; there are plenty of solutions that would likely work for you.

I’m not really understanding your question.

What do you mean by “my URL” and “WP’s URL”?

Is it a matter of the new post needing to be in your WordPress category? If so, when you write the post, you’ll need to select what category it should appear in — those options are to the right of the writing box in the admin panel.
