With wordpress 2.8.4 you can add plugins and themes right from wordpress. In your backend, click “appearance” or “plugins” and look for “add new”.

In addition, you can download themes and plugins from http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend and check out the plugins or themes directory. You will download a .zip file and upload it via FTP to your themes or plugins directory on your web server. If you have no idea what I just said, I would recommend reading the Getting Started with WordPress guide: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Getting_Started_with_WordPress and looking through the codex a few times.

Good luck.

Hey mkabwilliams,

Sorry for not understanding you correctly. You can add a navigation menu to your site that displays your categories. For example, if your joke categories are “Sex, Politics, Women, Men, Food” you can have those as links. When the user clicks the link they’ll go to that category page and see all posts under that category.

Is this what you want?

If so, and if you some idea of php and WP template tags, you should check out this codex link: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories

Hey James,

you might want to try this:

<?php
include('blog/wp-blog-header.php');
query_posts("showposts=1");
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
[[insert html/template tags here (from index.php) - whatever you want to include]]
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

You can have sub-pages which appear under the parent page. For example, if you have a page called “staff”, and create pages for each staff member, you can have links like “/staff/john/”. Do this by changing your permalinks to a custom structure; put in “/%postname%/” without the quotes.

When you create pages be sure to look on the right hand side and look for Attributes and “parent”. From the drop-down list select the parent page (in your case it would probably be staff).

I hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any more questions.

try:

#navigation ul {
padding: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
}

I guess it automates the 301 redirect, so you don’t have to do it one by one.

Great, but could you also include the index.php as well as a link to your site?

When you paste the index.php, please put it in between backticks. It will not paste correctly if you don’t. A backtick looks like this `
