I couldn’t get it to work in wordpress 2.7 either, after a lot of tests I found the fetch_rss returned a time-out error with this plugin. I’ve got it working again by replacing wp-includes/rss.php with an older version (wp2.6) of this file, and now it works. Still trying to figure out a nicer fix for this.

You could have a look at this plugin, it allows you to add custom fields to the profile, wich you could use in your templates as explained here.

Good luck.

Sorry bout this, turned out I did something wrong, it works just fine now.

Nice work. Only one problem, I clicked on the tabs on your page, and had to hit the back button 4 or 5 times to get back here. But very impressive.

Build a custom page template wich displays the last post, and use this template for your static homepage.

You could do that, don’t know if it’s in the .htaccess or in the dns settings though.

You should install wordpress (2.1, 2.0 doesn’t have this feature built-in) in the root of the site. Then create two pages, one for your static homepage, and one named blog or whatever you want for a name. Content doesn’t matter for the second, some lorem ipsum will do. Then go to wp-admin->options->reading where you can select your static frontpage. For the posts page select the page you created for your blog. That’s it.

Here you go.

The action hook is publish_post, see also this.

I think something went wrong with your permalink structure. Try changing them to default (under admin panels->options->permalinks).

Normally the edit button should only be visible to people with sufficient rights to edit posts. Have you looked at your blog without being logged on?

That could be done. Just check your header template if does some specific things depending on wether a page or the index is displayed.

Comment out the line with the require in it, and see if it works. (it is a longshot btw)

edit: Forget that, look over here.

In these plugins the file /wp-admin/admin-functions.php is probably called through an include or require command. Change this to an include_once or require_once command. Click here for more info on this.

You could also add a category wich is excluded in your template files, and add a second loop to your sidebar, wich would show just one post. That solves it all I think, and it would be done easyer than to create a plugin.
