It’s quite easy to do if you know how to rework your entire layout and CSS positioning in the style sheet but almost impossible to explain here.

Remapping is A WordPress COM thing – the hosted service. This forum is ORG – for self hosted WordPress users. Ask in the COM forum.

This is a very interesting dialogue. I am not sure a plugin on another app is analagous to the default theme in WP. If you think about it any change to WP other than back end tinkering needs to be reflected in the interface (TwentyTen) in order that the new functionality can be delivered to the operator / end user. Thus upgrades are often going to involve changes to the theme. I would go further. I can think of tweaks / changes to the default theme that would be beneficial in their own right and could be upgraded incrementally like the rest of the software.

Historically upgrades caused howls of outrage / pain from themers. But with the advent of the awesome power of child themes that is simply no longer necessary if the user has used a child theme from the get go.

I am very interested in this subject and am going to be doing everything I can to promote a deeper understanding of child themes in the WP community. The poor default theme is often ejected prematurely
by end users who then turn either to free themes of dubious provenance, or to paid for themes, or they embark on the hazardous task of hacking the default. For my 2 cents none of these three choices is the optimum one.

I would like to see a consistent message / idea begin to permeate thru the WP community which is this: The best thing to do in almost every case – unless you are developing a framework – is to keep the default and build a child theme. In that way you are guaranteed access to the full WP theme functionality, you are free to upgrade, and you will inevitably receive better/wider support from all quarters.

As a starter I would love to see a new section here in the forum dedicated to Child themes of the Default theme.

As a second step I would love to see WP distributed with the default and a child theme as well. Matt’s famous Hello Dolly was included as a guide to plugin developers. An included Child theme could do the same.

Well between us we have one happy camper . 😉

By center tag you mean the CSS center rule ? It was deprecated long ago and should not be used.

Create a cat for yr stuff in admin. Note the cat number. Then create a template called category-n.php where n is yr cat number.

When you say comment boxes. You want to remove all references to comments on static pages ?
