Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Trying to create CMS home pageI would create a custom field that a user can put an image url into, and then make an if statement in the loop to display that image if it exists.
Just a suggestion, it seems simple enough for non-techies.

In reply to: Advanced menu management plugin?Why not just include the built in wordpress page navigation with a depth set to 1 and exclude whatever you want from each? It would be easy enough to make each part an include file, to have it as a single line text file that you could edit from the theme manager. (I suggest this because I am not skilled enough to write the plugin myself, although I think it would be really nice to have.. good luck!)
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: How do you get rid of the link border?As long as you don’t write a contradictory block of CSS, it will make no difference where you place it in your file. Don’t forget that you can make it more specific by referencing a class or ID of an image, or containing element such as a span or div.

In reply to: How to submit for search enginesWell, some search engine basics… you don’t really need to submit. The major search engines (google, msn, yahoo) crawl the web and find your site automatically. WordPress is friendly to them, so they will index your whole site automatically.
The title tag is already filled in from your blog/post name for most templates. Meta tags like keywords and description are not all that effective any more, search engines usually pull snipits from the post itself and ignore metadata.
Read some on seochat.com to get a good just of search engines, it is a great resource.
So, in short: do nothing special, just make sure you have good content for the search engines to consume.

Forum: Your WordPress
In reply to: Please comment my siteI like it a lot. Though I would use a less common typeface personally, and it is standard practice to make a header a link to your blog when it is as sizeable as yours.

In reply to: Show subpages when parent page is selectedThis is a feature I have wanted for a while, but hacks introduce a problem with upgrading. Does anyone know of a plugin that introduces these features?

In reply to: Category Order Plugin – Assistance RequiredTar files are designed to be unpacked on UNIX servers. Try WinRar though, it might work.

In reply to: Need Plugin IdeasI would like to see a plugin that changes the admin interface… what I mean is that I like to do certain things to my posts (such as add a category, and tags, maybe edit the post slug) but I always forget to do it… somthing to check that you have set a category, or to reorginize everything as a list, rather than having it all hidden.
