If you comment out or delete the whole line, your idication for number of comments may go as well.

I’d just use the 2nd option i.e. delete the (Posted By) if I were you.

It’ll be in your theme files (single.php and index.php etc…), just comment out the line that look smth like this:

<p><?php _e('Posted by', 'design_sentry'); ?> <?php the_author_link() ?> <?php _e('in', 'design_sentry'); ?> <?php the_category(', '); ?> | <?php comments_number(__('0 Comments', 'design_sentry'), __('1 Comment', 'design_sentry'), __('% Comments', 'design_sentry')); ?></p>

Or change that part:

<p><?php _e('Posted by', 'design_sentry'); ?>

to

<p><?php _e('', 'design_sentry'); ?>

Feel your pain man. I started like you a while ago with no knowledge or understanding of wordpress at all. I’ve set up my portfolio site first and spent hours reading forum and other helpful blogs out there. But some don’t have the time to do that. Now I’ve just set up my own blog. It’s fairly new but for your issue,

There a lot of websites out there that create favicons for you if you feed them an image or logo. Just google for it. Post back if you need further help. They will output a 16px by 16px .ICO file that you may then upload to your theme folder, only accessible through FTP. But so many things can go wrong if you have no idea what you are doing. I’d contact that someone you paid to do that.

Unsolved after hours of research. Guess I’ll just keep a change log for that.

Thanks jeezyo. While I understood the above, I was doing something wrong.
I had no idea how critical was the line template in the code below:

/*
Theme Name: XXX
Theme URI: XXX
Description: Business & Portfolio Themes.
Author: XXX
Template: (needs to be the exact folder name of the parent template)
Author URI: XXX
*/

I meant the shadows under your text, especially headers. Shadows on black background don’t really pop out so much. I understand the need to differentiate the header, but maybe you could try a slightly bigger size or a different font altogether. Layout wise I think the homepage looks great. But it looks like you put more time in it than the subsequent post pages… The Illinois Uni search page is great!

Good layout, lots of potential. Does not render well in Opera though. Try to implement some custom fonts through cufon to better highlight our your post headers. I’ll drop the text shadows if I were you.

Feel free to provide feedback for AsianUrbanist.com
The site is still in development. Thanks!

Hi William, I stumble upon your website while browsing through this forum. Amazing what some people can do with wordpress. You definitely have great content and the design and colour scheme chosen are great. I have a suggestion for your header logo which seems to come with a white background. Maybe a png with transparent background will be more appropriate for it. By the way how new is the website?

William, thanks for the vote of confidence.
More to come soon.
