Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Anonymous commentsBoth the Add a Comment form, and the display of comments are controlled by the comments.php file in your Theme.
So all you need to do is edit your theme so that the comment author is not displayed, and the comment form does not ask for email. See this page for more info on themes:

In reply to: .htaccess and permalinksIf the redirects and mod rewrite rules are independent of each other, the order in your .htaccess file should not matter.
If they are not independent, I am not sure they will work at all.
Good luck!
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Change Section titles, “Pages”, “Archives” etcGenerally, text on your page is found in one of the PHP files for your theme. Suggestion:
a) Find either header.php or sidebar.php (depending if the text you want to change is in the header or sidebar).
b) Open the file in a plain text editor.
c) Search for the text that you want to change, and change it carefully (leave all quotes, tags, etc. alone).
d) Save and/or upload the file to your WordPress installation.Good luck!

In reply to: Javascript menu not showingOn your friend’s main page, http://www.sionbebb.co.uk, the menus work because the HTML source includes lines like this:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript1.2" src="menu.js"></script>A similar line (or lines) needs to be added to the Theme you are using for the WordPress blog, in order to use the same JavaScript menu system. The best place to put it is header.php or footer.php.
Also, since the script tag points to the JavaScript file 9such as menu.js in the above example), you will need to change it slightly, using something like this:
src=http://www.sionbebb.co.uk/menu.js
(so that the browser can find the correct location).
Good luck!
