Help! On-line portfolio shortly due
-
I’m supposed to submit a portfolio in the form of a blog as the final project for a masters-level class. Tho I’ve built 2 WYSIWYG websites, doing this blog thing is confusing.I’ve got questions; can someone help?
Here’s my blog: http://stepanczuk.wordpress.com
• I want to get all of the pages to show up under the Categories in the left hand column. As you can see there’s only one. What can I do?
• I want Home page to *be* the Introduction page. How do I do that?
• Look at the Resources page. You see:
Archives by Month:
August 2008
Archives by Category:
Home
Introductionbut the Lesson page there is no Archive info. I want all my pages to be like the Lesson Plan page; with no archive headers. How do I do that?
These 3 Qs are good for starters.
Thanx in advance,
woodrackets

Q1

Q2

Archives etc. are not part of a particular page: they are in your SIDEBAR, which appears with all pages and posts. To modify its contents, you go to Design>Widgets and add or remove widgets. -
Jenny & Pana,
Thanx. I think I got it mostly figured out.Now I’ve got a Home link and a mystery link between Home and Introduction. Now what?

themountainsage,
Thanx, but if I get rid of that, nothing shows up on the Home page. How do I access the Home page? For the life of me, I cannot find it. -

I could have sworn that theme came with a home page link already. When I look at my test blog, it shows up. http://vjptestblog2.wordpress.com/ IIRC, there is a problem with that theme when you use the page trick to put the home link in the tabs, the result being that ghost page.

You just click on the blog name.
Rain,
Tried that. No dice.there is a problem with that theme when you use the page trick to put the home link in the tabs, the result being that ghost page.
Viv,
Thanx, girl. I guess I jusy gotta deal with it. At least I can get to the content by clicking on either the Home link or the ghost link. Weird, but it works.wood

Hey wood – clicking on the blog name in the header DOES take you home. Not sure why it’s not working for you because I just tried it and it works.

Viv,
You mean the *editable* Home page? That’s what I want. I wanna pimp that.wood

I think you need to read this – http://faq.wordpress.com/2007/08/16/im-new-to-blogging-where-do-i-start/ You seem to not understand the very basic parts of blogging.
