WordPress Tutorial 2 install custom layout? I want to make my own layout for my wordpress blog. Making it is easy, now I would like to know if there is a good tutorial that would explain how to implement the new layout. If you guys know of any... The very best would be from Photoshop to Wordpress. ^_^ Wordpress does explain how to change things but one by one and it is not as custom. THANK YOU!!!

How to display wordpress post of a specific category on an external php page.? I am working on a website, but one of the requirements is that i have is to be able to show announcements on a separate page. I am running the Xoops CMS, and being familiar with Wordpress i got the Xoops Wordpress module which is exactly the same only it allows the post to be displayed within the xoops cms. I decide that rather than manually updating the announcements page i would use wordpress and only display post from the announcements category. Using code from the first example on this website http://www.roccanet.com/blog/tutorial/tutorial-integrating-wordpress-2-blog-to-an-existing-site-with-cache/ i was able to get the wordpress post on an external php file. Unfortunately it displays all of the post from all categories. What i need is to display post from just my announcements category (i.e. category_id = 7 ). Although i am familiar with PHP programming, the MySQL/PHP part of it is something i am now getting into. All help with this would appreciated and i thank you in advance.

Moving website to wordpress? Recently I've been wanting to upgrade my website and thought moving it to a wordpress platform would be ideal since it's mostly a php-based publishing website displaying articles and directories. Is this a good idea? I don't know how this will affect my current page links (since I guess I will need to convert them into permalinks?). I don't know how much flexibility I will have with each of my pages and adsense code. Are there any tutorials on the web for webmasters interested in migrating their websites to a wp platform or is there someone who has done this before? Any advice would be appreciated.

Wordpress/comicpress question, how to manipulate templates? I just installed wordpress and comicpress templates onto my server. I like it a lot. I've gotten several pages made and I'm liking the interface a lot better than some other CMS I've tried so far. It was also the easiest to install. I've even embedded some html into some of the pages already. I see webcomics like PVP and etc are using wordpress but i don't understand how they are modifying their templates. Are there tutorials or anything that can help me figure out how to get started on this? I'm especially interested in learning a good workflow, I'm not sure if I'm being as efficient as I could be on this wordpress/comicpress stuff. background: I know HTML a lot. CSS and PHP I understand a lot but I have not much practice, but I know enough to understand how to write and learn very quickly other aspects of it.

How do I make a website for my blog? I'm looking for a good, easy tutorial that will walk me through creating a website with my own domain and adding a blogger or wordpress blog to it. I know how to use blogger and wordpress, but creating a whole website and adding the blog to it is totally above my head. I want it to look professional and be something I can personalize with sidebar stuff (html), adsense, and my own graphics, but not too complicated. I also want to be able to have it hosted inexpensively for like $10-20 month. Any suggestions? I own the domain name that I want to use through GoDaddy.

Young Website Developer: Help me chose a free web host!? Hey guys. I'm currently testing out Wordpress (.org) doftware to make a custom blog for my mother's business (photography). Wordpress (.com) did not work out, because it doesn't have plugin features and (free) CSS editing it's themes. Now, see, I'm only fourteen. I'm a fourteen year young boy. I am no hardcore "coder" but I can make my way around things with onloine tutorials, intuition, and cut & paste. I'm trying, right now, to make a dummy site to see if I'm even CAPABLE of making a custom theme for Wordpress. Now, I have no money. I have no choice but to choose a free (and crap-ish) web host. I have used the wonderous tool called google and worked my way down to two web hosts. Tell me which sounds best. As a note, I want to install Wordpress, so please tell me which one will allow me to do so: http://www.oxyhost.com/ http://www.joolo.com/index.jsp Do not let either website's appealing templates persuade you, but tell me froma technical point of view. Thx! P.S. Ca someone please tell me, also, what features I will need for Wordpress that can be found in either hosts: do I need PHP, MYSQL, etc?

Should I get a new computer for what I want to do (e.g., building websites)? Here’s the deal: 1) I have a 1998 Dell PC w/ Windows98 that crashes about 6 times a day, that has a non-working CD-Rom drive, and which has a broken printer and won’t accept any other printers. Should I get a new computer (hopefully laptop or notebook) or upgrade in order to build a website/blog on my own? 2) I started a Wordpress.com freebie blog and now want to buy my own domain and build from the ground up--how easy is it to move my current content to the new location? 3) I’ve never done any website design but have started learning html through free tutorials on the web. Do I need to learn all the programming stuff first (i.e., xhtml, CSS, etc.) or can I learn as I build? 4) I have a disability which prevents me from carrying things (have to use a walker), so I need a computer light enough to go into a backpack, but effective enough for website building. Any suggestions for laptops or notebooks for $1200 or less?
