in the path i wrote with the >s example and new theme were just examples of folders that you might have. so example would be the name of your new site without the .com.

New theme was just in place of the theme you want to upload.
so you should be uploading the theme to the themes directory. this SHOULD then appear on the presentation screen.

are you sure you are uploading to the right domain, that is, not to just public_html>wp-content>themes?

in your header, or wherever the nav section is located, where you call the pages, put ‘exclude=x,y’ in the brackets. where x and y are the id numbers of the pages.

so assuming you are using wp_list_pages, and the items you dont want to display are id 1 2 and 3 put the following
<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=1,2,3'); ?>

you can find the ids on the manage pages panel.

if this is the standard meta widget supplied with the widget plugin, you need to edit the widget plugin itself, its a long file, so search for meta in it until you find the right bit

ok ive sorted it, just came to reply to your post, had one more try and cracked it.

<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
<li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="<?php author_highlight(); ?>">
      <div class="commentname">
        <?php comment_author_link()?> @ <?php comment_date('F jS, Y') ?>
		<?php edit_comment_link(__("Edit This"), ''); ?> 

      </div>
     	 <?php if ($comment->comment_approved == '0') : ?>
     	 <em>Your comment is awaiting moderation.</em>
      	<?php endif; ?>
		<div class='commenttext'>
		<div class="gravatar"><img src="<?php gravatar("PG","32");?>" /></div>

<div class="commentp"><?php comment_text();?></div>
		</div>

    </li>
    <?php /* Changes every other comment to a different class */
if ('alt' == $oddcomment){
$oddcomment = 'standard';}
else {$oddcomment = 'alt';} ?>
    <?php endforeach; /* end for each comment */ ?>

this is using author highlight plugin.

instead of having the id defined as the comment number of whatever it was, i put the php that created the alternate highlighting as the class, and the author highlight as the id. works a charm.

are we talking dan cameron’s search everything? the version i use has the option (on admin>options>search everything) to include metadata, but ive never tested it.

have you tried asking him directly on dancameron.org/wordpress? he is really good at helping out.

other than that i cant help.

ive found the proper way to change this, without the !important function in the css.

open your header.php, and look for this, its the bit i couldnt find before

#page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbg.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }

this is what i have

<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
    <li class="<?php echo $oddcomment; ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
      <div class="commentname">
        <?php comment_author_link()?> @ <?php comment_date('F jS, Y') ?>
		<?php edit_comment_link(__("Edit This"), ''); ?> 

      </div>
     	 <?php if ($comment->comment_approved == '0') : ?>
     	 <em>Your comment is awaiting moderation.</em>
      	<?php endif; ?>
		<div class='commenttext'>
		<div class="gravatar"><img src="<?php gravatar("PG","32");?>" /></div>

			<div class="commentp"><?php comment_text();?></div>
		</div>

    </li>
    <?php /* Changes every other comment to a different class */
	if ('alt' == $oddcomment){$oddcomment = 'standard'; } else { $oddcomment = 'alt'; }?>
    <?php endforeach; /* end for each comment */ ?>
