 * Seriously, this is a pre-existing feature of any blogging tool.
    I realize that,
   but then why can I not find it on my blogs dashboard.With blogger one just clicks
   on add link,whilweone writes one post.A box appears in which one writes how one
   wants link to appear(word,part of sentence etc) presto its done.I do not need
   to understand urls(ugly,pretty whatever) I do not need to format any thing. I
   just switched to WordPress using a host.I am having nothing but trouble.I try
   to copy and paste simple blog content to the template,my blog has disappeared,
   only the header remains(and its been like that for 2 days now,try and get help
   with that,sure if you pay).Again with blogger any idiot can copy and paste code
   to template(Code like sitemeter ,blog awards,Google ads etc etc)

 * One other thing If I only messed with the goggle ad code,in the left side bar
   why does this effect everything else.Would not only the Google ad not show or
   be affected

 * So does this mean the rest of my blog is gone.All I deleted was the Google ad
   in the left sidebar.When I click on edit template I still see the rest of the
   code etc,including the new code I copied and pasted that makes up the rest of
   the blog.
    I had a blogger blog once and template changes were very simple,find
   area one wants to paste code,hit upload and its done.Whats different about WordPress
   Would the host provider have something to do with this,maybe I have to update
   at the login site to my account set up by the host provider. changes made to 
   the template at the WordPress site ,do they show up on ones blog automatically,
   or does one need to change something over at my host account.
