  i have paid for Premium. I have problems with 1) setting my chosen template for all blogs and pages; 2) copying content from current blogs to start-up pages; 3) making start-up page on template for my own domain.

  Hi there,

  Could I get some additional details from you? What template are you trying to set for your blogs? Where are you trying to import content from and what errors are you getting?

  And finally, I’m not quite sure what you mean when you say “making start-up page on template for my own domain.” Could you clarify that a bit for me?

  Take a look at my pages at http://www.drpeet.com and my blogs at drpeetdotcom.wordpress.com. The blogs use the custom template I chose from the premium options available through my $99 upgrade. The pages don’t use the template. Very different look and feel. I want to set up a cover page that is comparable to a typical website index page, and then have clicks for my serial blogs, and a full flow-charted website that runs off the clicks on the index page, and have everything open looking the same in the premium template.

  The pages don’t currently use the template because I don’t know how to set them up in the template.

  Wrong term. Should have used “theme” instead of “template.”

  Hiya,

  First I want to make sure you know that the WordPress.com Premium upgrade that you purchased and applied to your blog drpeetdotcom1.wordpress.com (what is currently showing as drpeet.com) only applies to that one blog. It doesn’t apply to any other blogs. So while you can get other blogs to look very similar, they won’t really look the same, though really as long as you’re careful not to use any CSS customization on drpeet.com, they could even look functionally identical.

  In regard to creating a full website, you can certainly do that. You will likely want to do so using pages and custom menus rather than posts. The following three help articles will likely be of the most help to you:
