Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Plugin: Redirection] Home Page Redirects to new wordpress pageThe problem occures when you create a new PAGE. POSTS are fine, but as soon as a PAGE is created, the home page redirects to the last created page.
You can deactivate the plugin as suggested, or just keep this mind when you create a page, especially since pages are (mostly) created infrequently.
So, when you create a new PAGE, go to Tools>>Redirection>>Groups>>Modified posts.
There you will see a new homepage redirect listed as /
Simply select and delete this redirect and things will return to normal.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Sidebar disappeared after upgrade to 2.9.1I am having the same problem, after I did the upgrade I can no longer view the widgets I have installed in the admin interface. They are still visible on the site, but not editable in the back end.

In reply to: Admin dashboard pages — default for new usersAs a small business using WordPress to run our site, I have pretty much the same problem.

We have new users signing up and when they log in they’re presented with an unfamiliar screen and aren’t sure what they need to do.
From my perspective, I would like to brand he Dashboard so that the user still knows they’re on my site. And right at the top of the wish list would be widgetizing the Dashbaord in order to display content of my choice. For example advertising posts or content right within the Dash. So a user could come in, see what’s new, maybe some product specials and the most active content by comments.
oh well, wishful thinking.
This is definitely something that I would pay for if someone were to build it.
