In reply to: Why have users login?That would be one reason. Another is if your subject matter is one of which you want to better moderate the comments could be another.
But yes, generally speaking, most blogs allow anyone to comment.

In reply to: Topics on frontpageGenerally I simply use
<?php $wp_query->set( 'cat', '1' ); ?>
<?php query_posts( '' ); ?>Just above the start of the loop.
This makes the next previous posts link work, vs the standard query_posts
What version are you running by the way?

In reply to: Displaying my posts on another siteGenerally it’s not a good idea to post to a [resolved] thread….
CG-PowerPack is a WP plugin, based on PHP. I don’t *think* you can call a php function in a html page. There are options out there for including RSS feeds in html however.

In reply to: Directory QuestionsThe adjustments are minor, and can actually be done via the admin panel if you follow the directions, it’s a matter of the domain name and URI being adjusted. It’s well documented in the codex and here in the forums.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Directory QuestionsIt all depends where you want the test blog to be. You could create a /blog and upload files there, leaving your root install alone. You could then move the blog somewhere else later, with a few adjustments to the database.

In reply to: UTW – Tags Point To?For me, it takes the visitor to a page of other posts with the same tag. Many discussions have been had over the differences and uses of tagging vs categories, and it comes down to preference.
UTW does have a tag search feature that lets visitors choose multiple tags, albeit it needs work for sites with a lot of tags, IMO.

In reply to: Can someone just look please..First, please do not post multiple threads on the same subject.
Regarding your issue, the problem is that you are using a theme that has a flexible center column with a narrow image.
So on monitors with wider displays (1280x 1024 here), the content column is expanding wider than the image.
You may try adding some CSS to the header image, margin:0 auto; to see if it automatically centers if the container is wider than the image.

In reply to: UTW – Tags Point To?Nothing to clarify. What you are asking is to modify the plugin, which generally won’t be responded to in a day, if at all.
You may be better off looking at Christine’s support forum for UTW, and possibly offer a feature request.
