    Awesome, you rock! I did know it was that easy. This should make things much easier. I am such a fan of wordpress. I used to do all coding by hand and this is just so much easier. Also a lot better then Jommala too. Thank you again for the information.

    I will check out that captcha plugin. Thank you for the tip. I am sure that will not end the spam but sure should cut it down. I know there are programs out there that will auto fill in the captcha for you. But those programs cost money for each captcha that it solves for you. Anyways, thanks again.

    Just putting in my 2 cents worth. I too found this comment on my site tonight. I immediately forwarded the message to paypal. Well maybe not immediately, I first made fun of them on my facebook page. lol Needless to say, I am not worried about this. Are people really this stupid? I mean it does not even say how much you need to “donate” in order to keep your site. I had the thought of sending the person $0.01. But decided to keep my money. I need to go back and view the comment again but doesn’t it have 2 different e-mail addresses too?

    It looks very nice to me. However I will not be able to give much feedback since I can not read it. hehe But it “looks” nice.

    I like the look of it very much. The only thing that jumps out at me is the “pages” section in the footer. It seems really out of place and just sticks out to me.

    Thank you Ipstenu. I think as a rule of thumb I will start writing excerpts for all posts incase any time in the future I want to use them. That means I need to go back and write them for the 101 weird news stories I posted yesterday and today. lol

    I had another question about pingbacks.

    I have one right now where I guess someone is sending a pingback to me. In the information box all I see is this.

    […] Smiles, Laughs and WTF! Skip to content HomeAboutSite rulesWeird news stories ← Farmers leave bare-butt thief hog-tied for […]

    Now “Farmers leave bare-butt thief hog-tied for” is one of my stories I have posted. But is there any way to find out where this pingback is coming from? I want to know before I approve it.

    I am still trying to figure out how people are finding this site so fast already. Man, wordpress is so much better then joomla!

    Thank you in advance for any more advice you can give me.

    This was in the end resolved with an “Include” plugin and also a “exclude” plugin and I think everything will work quite nicely. Not quiet the way I want it yet. But this will do for now to get the site live by deadline.

    Like I said I do not completely understand this but I am trying my best.

    Here is what the html looks like for my page named “weird news stories”

    Here is where you find hundreds of weird news stories from around the web. Many of these stories may be strange and hard to believe, but I do my best to research each story and only collect stories from reputable news organizations.   I hope you enjoy and please feel free to leave comments for each story.
    
    <?php
    query_posts( 'cat=-Weird news stories' );
    ?>

    But on the weird news stories page it just looks like this.

    When in fact I want it to look like this.

    -Another link to a post from the category of “weird news stories”-

    -Another link to a post from the category of “weird news stories”-

    -Another link to a post from the category of “weird news stories”-

    Where of course each place is says “link” would be a link to a post from the category “weird news stories”

    I will continue to play with this. But I thought I would also try the more simple route and ask a more detailed question here.

    Thank you for the reply. Is bbPress the same as bbforums. Because I think I used something before called bbforums on my joomla site.

    Also I do understand that I can Google plugins to find ones on the net. But I was really hoping to hear peoples experience with specific plugins.
