Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Unable to Login to my WP blogIf you are familiar with PHP myadmin, you could login and disable all active plugins, then login and reactivate plugins as necessary. If you’re not sure how to do that, I came across this post a couple years ago that really helps make it clear which I was able to find again for you.

In reply to: New site for reviewW3 Total Cache works pretty well or you might even consider hosting on WPEngine which is a strong WordPress only hosting company.
If you need help setting up W3 total cache I recommend checking out this tutorial:

In reply to: Updating and Creating a Child ThemeYou could follow these steps:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
and then in your child theme css file copy all the css from the file you already changed? Might not be the most efficient but that way you won’t lose anything. Any other files you modified can also be copied and uploaded to the child theme as well such as page templates etc. Then if the theme updates you shouldn’t have any issues.

In reply to: Ads on my pageYou can try this thread:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-widgetize-wordpress-header-for-468×60-ad?replies=3
I’m not sure but I think HeadSpace2 pluguin might also be an option(not for sure) with adding ad space to the header. There are lots of options in the repository for ads in the header area.
Just as a friendly tip, you might consider other development options other than Artisteer. I’ve fixed a good many sites built with it in the last year by others and found it to be really subpar for development. You’d be much better off just child theming 2010 or 2011 default themes, because you’ll get better results in the long run.

In reply to: Comments Displayed in SidebarI’m not sure there is going to be a plugin for that, I did a little quick research and came up empty. However if you’re familiar with Firebug for Chrome or FireFox Browser, you can figure out the css to style your most recent blog comments. I’m sure that’s not the easiest solution, but hopefully it’ll be a step in the right direction.

In reply to: Simple HTML not showing up in text widgetYeah that does look a bit better for sure. Now it’s clear. I would adjust the padding in the style sheet. It’s really best practice. If your afraid of it affecting all the widget areas, you can create a new class and apply it, if that makes sense?

In reply to: I've Copied a Theme and no Menus don't workDid you set the menus again under Appearance, Menus, Set Menu in Theme location, usually the top left box of the menu page? It looks as though nothing was selected which is why all of your menu items are there right now.

In reply to: How to get Full post in all categoryI would check the single.php, functions.php or or even in the theme settings themselves? I’ve never used that theme specifically but I would imagine it’s in one of those 2 pages or in the settings.

In reply to: What's a good online course?There are lots of great resources. I recommend first and foremost going through the codex:
If video is more your thing, check out http://wordpress.tv
or even try tutsplus.com or wp.tutspluscom
http://wp101.com as well. Hope that gets you started.

In reply to: How to remove sidebarCategories and Links will go there by default if you have nothing inserted into an active widget area. Your theme should have the option for a full width page?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Installed, but having problemsIf you just changed the namer servers, it’ll take some time for your self hosted site to populate. I think they say anywhere from a couple hours up to 24-48 hours. This is likely why your having trouble accessing the site at this time. Blue host is pretty decent as far as a shared hosting company, you can always call and check with them as well.
