In reply to: Beginner needs help with comments and archives page for pressrowSecond, when people go to comment, it takes them to my “about” page and they are unable to comment.
What exactly do you mean here? If I click on ‘No Comments’ for the first post (My Cholesterol), it takes me to this url
http://sortakindafamous.com/?p=79#respond, which is the article itself, yet it doesn’t jump to the input field.I’m able however to put something in. I’m not seeing the about page at that point. Is it after they submit their comments?

In reply to: Beginner needs help with comments and archives page for pressrowSince I don’t know the theme, I’m gonna make a guess here about the filename: in most of the cases I’ve seen, the navigation bar is in the file header.php. So that’ll be your starting point.
In that file there’s something like this:
<div id="nav"> <ul> <li> <a class="blog" href="http://sortakindafamous.com">blog</a> </li> <li> <a class="archives" href="http://sortakindafamous.com/archives/">archives</a> </li> <li> <a class="about" href="http://sortakindafamous.com/about/">about</a> </li> </ul> </div>If you want to get rid of archives, change this bit to:
<div id="nav"> <ul> <li> <a class="blog" href="http://sortakindafamous.com">blog</a> </li> <li> <a class="about" href="http://sortakindafamous.com/about/">about</a> </li> </ul> </div>(the exact wording could differ, since I’m reading html, while the php may look a bit different).
I’ll look into the other problem in a jiffy.

In reply to: Sidebar keeps disappearingSome of your php files don’t have a call to the sidebar, like for instance single.php: if you watch an article, the the sidebar disappears (it’s still there, but you don’t make a call to it).

In reply to: Sidebar Dropping in IE7I think it’s because of the huge margin-left and padding on #sidebar.
IE treats margins different from other browsers. Try to solve it with a float left, a smaller width, and without the left margin/padding.

In reply to: Comments on pageOke, found a copy of the default theme:
Put the comment command just below the following line:
<?php edit_post_link(... ?>Then the comment form will be part of the post, and will follow it’s styling as well.

In reply to: Comments on pageLet’s start by thinking about where you want this respond thingemy positioned.
Directly underneath the page text, or there where it is now?

In reply to: Comments on pagePut it after the sidebar call then. It’s quite hard to do without the actual code.

In reply to: Comments on page<?php get_sidebar(); ?>Peter

In reply to: Comments on pageYou’d have to modify page.php to make commenting possible.
Put this somewhere above the sidebar call:
<?php comments_template(); ?>Peter
