Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: First time blogger looks for creative feedback -just launchedI am in a heinously foul mood so I’m gonna go on ahead and tell mores to shut up. This forum isn’t about content — it’s about design, functionality, etc. So hesh it.
I think your site looks great. Clean, neat, easy to read and navigate. And to counter Mr. Grumpys comment, even though as I said above this isn’t about content, I’d like to add that I read pretty much every word you’ve written thus far and then bookmarked you. Very interesting and well written — barf stories and all 😉

In reply to: Help with wrong email address and passwordSounds like you still have the original database info in the config file and like you DIDN’T delete it. Log into PHPmyadmin, drop the tables in the database, and then install.
Incidentally — you could have just logged into the admin area and changed your email address in your profile.

In reply to: Page URLOh for heavens sake… log into your admin panel and change the permalink structure to either day and name or month and name and you’ll get the result you’re looking for.

In reply to: GD Star RatingRead the readme that comes with the plugin. It gives instructions and several links to support pages not to mention the link to the users guide.

You don’t (and can’t) download WP from .com! Why do you keep telling people to do this?!?

In reply to: need to place a logo on the charcoal templateThat’s because this:
<h1>/">< h1 { background-image: url(images/cafe_maganai.jpg);} </h1>>is COMPLETELY wrong. You can’t place an image like that and even if you simply dropped the header in with the correct code (
<img src="http://www.maganaonline.com/blog/wp-content/themes/charcoal/images/cafe_maganai.jpg"/>) it wouldn’t be aligned properly. What it comes down to is that the theme wasn’t intended to have a header image and your header image doesn’t fit in the space to the left of the search/RSS area. It will take some reworking of the code and the image to make it work. This is a great time for you to learn how to create/edit themes:http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/02/19/so-you-want-to-create-wordpress-themes-huh/

In reply to: Using permalinks for PagesOff the top of my head I can’t think of any specific problems just using /%postname%/ would cause but it’s not a good idea. Seriously, just try what I told you. It will render pages as whatever.com/pagename

Yes yes. That’s how you would do it however you don’t want to because it can screw things up.

In reply to: Showing Post On Front Of The Website?How about a URL? Why not just install WP in the root if you want the posts on the front page or give WordPress its own directory?

In reply to: need to place a logo on the charcoal templateWell for starters, this image doesn’t exist:
http://www.maganaonline.com/blog/wp-content/themes/charcoal/images/cafe_maganai.jpeg
For another, your code is completely wrong. Since the theme doesn’t already have a header image we need to create the code for it. To do that properly I’ll need to see the header image.

In reply to: use wp on domain and subdomainsYou install in a subdomain the same way you installed on the domain.
If you could just tell me the technical terms i can look up directions myself.
You HAVE the “technical terms”, lol.
Google:
redirect page on godaddy
*edit*
Better yet, search at Godaddy for how to redirect on Godaddy.

In reply to: Using permalinks for PagesSet the permalinks to either day and name or month and name (even though there won’t be posts) to avoid problems and the pages will appear as whatever you name the page… IE about, orange, red.
