In reply to: How to protect your own design theme from being copy?Fallacious, specious reasoning. Would you feel that way if someone stole your custom art?

In reply to: who promotes who?I don’t think Subscribers can post, only read. I think you’ll need to do at least Contributor for them to be able to post. If the Contributor role is too “loose” then maybe try the Role Manager plugin: http://redalt.com/Resources/Plugins/Role+Manager

In reply to: I have no Sidebar Widgets tab under PresentationDid you download, install, and activate the widgets plugin from http://automattic.com/code/widgets? It’s not bundled with the wp distro.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: making a blog a websiteAs long as you don’t drop the original tables in the database, you won’t lose the content. If you’re going to use the same database, use a different table prefix: by default your original one no doubt has the prefix as wp_ – so if you’re using the same database, you can give the new tables the prefix of wp1_ or something….
It’s not specifically a wp install in root and one in a subfolder – it’s specifically when you use the SAME DATABASE for more than one wp install (at least in my experience, that is).
I have numerous wp installs, in fact I’ve got a couple of sites with half a dozen each – one in root each and the rest in subfolders. But both those sites have a database for EACH install.
The sites where I’ve had trouble this way are sites where I’m doing background tweaking for clients, and the main root install of wp is the “real deal” – so I’ve set up a tweaker install using the same database for convenience. What I note about these is that the root install theme never “fails” – only the subfolder one.
So your situations may not fall into this black hole at all…. and sorry to be slow about getting back. I’ve had client messes to clear….

In reply to: user modifiable themesRyan Boren’s themeswitcher – look through Plugins, it may be on one of the repositories, not sure. And I’m not sure it works with the latest wp version either.

In reply to: Help with slightly off HeaderTry adding float:left; and text-align:left; to whatever element the title stuff resides in.
It’s just another theme, with some extraneous bloated “fancies”. If it’s any consolation, I know someone who has the problem occasionally with a custom theme.
