In reply to: Broken Themes: WP doesn’t find themesAlso, check that you have them in the correct place. It’s easy to upload them incorrectly sometimes and end up with the /wp-content/themes/blacktheme/blacktheme structure which will not work.

In reply to: Excluding a category from a post listMy mistake.
In that case, try this plugin – offers the capability to exclude categories and limit amount of posts listed.

In reply to: Display OptionA few factors:
1. You can set the limit of posts showing on any one page by going to Options – Reading – Blog Pages
2. To limit the post content – you can either change the code within the index.php and single.php files from
<?php the_content(); ?>to<?php the_excerpt(); ?>OR
Use the MORE tag within each post. This will cut the post off at the point where you insert it so that on the front page, only an extract of the post will be showing. The full content will show on the post page itself.

In reply to: Install code in sidebar for widgets, Now site wiped outGo back in steps. Hopefully you have saved your original files?
Remove the functions.php file and you should regain access to your admin.
Then you can work through what may have gone wrong. Upload functions.php again once you feel confident all is in place as it should be.

In reply to: Help removing things with MW themeA good habit to follow when changing anything like this [and you are unsure of the procedure or the outcome] is to do it one step at a time.
Save your original file so you have something to go back to, and cut and past code in small sections. If it doesn’t work, go back, replace what you just changed and try another option.
This also helps you to come to grips with what each piece of code is doing.
Not being able to see what you are doing really does limit what we can offer in the way of assistance.

In reply to: Change Category to Name from NumberIt appears that all of your categories [even when called alone] are actually working], i.e. http://www.blogbythebay.com/belvedere – http://www.blogbythebay.com/marin
The problem happens when you use the drop down box to call your categories. I would recommend you have a look at that side of things first.
Looking at your code when you call the category from the drop down box, you end up with the following title:
<title>Blog By The Bay » Belvedere</title>Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Just signed up; can’t log inIt sounds like you may have mis-typed your username [possible case sensive issue perhaps?] and now it will not let you in because it is written to the database.
Re-installing will not help you unless you delete your database first. Assuming this is a new site with no content, it should not be too much of a problem?
