Question about Wordpress

    I am sorry if this is wrong part of forum, but I wasn't sure where to post.

    Ok here goes:
    On my site: http://uncommondollars.com

    I just got wordpress.

    1) The google adsense how do I make it so it fits in with page? Like how do I make it in the center of that box rather than on the left like outside the box. Also the top and bottom of the box seems to get cutoff and I don't know what that is.

    2) How do I put adsense in between each post? Is that a good idea? How else should I/could I do it?

    3) On the archive on my page, I want it like recent posts basically where everything is cleanly listed.

    Like: uncommondollars.blogspot.com (my old blog) see how archive works, i think that would be good for this blog, but this archive is like retarded.

    Help please!

    Thanks!

    1. put this around your google adsense code <center> code here </center>

    2. you have to dig into the php and enter the adsense code in your single.php page

    3. ?

    The 3rd one I am asking: see how on uncommondollars.blogspot.com the BLOG ARCHIVE, it has a dropdown with the list of my previous blog posts.

    Can I do that with the wordpress archive widget?

    Thanks

    ALSO:

    Error From Your Blog
    XML-RPC services are disabled on this blog. An admin user can enable them at http://uncommondollars.com/wp-admin/options-writing.php (from DIGG)

    what does that mean?

    I think there is a wordpress plug in for what you are looking for. Check wordpress website plugins, there are hundreds of them

    as for your error. I'm not sure. Try posting a new thread in the blogging or even google section. there are some blogspot pros there.

    Yea I figured out a few of the errors, I have a question: How should I post my ads? Is there a way better than it's posted now? (better placement?)

    Thanks!

    I will be starting a new project in May (still under wraps) and I need your help. Basically, I need to know your deepest darkest questions about WordPress.

    u can import to wordpress from blogger.. it's a bit advantage.. play with import settings.

    google adsense, u can download (sorry i am just a newbie, so i can't post links yet).

    search this keyphrase in google "adsense manager wordpress plugins" and click the first one
    download the zip, upload under wp-plugin folder, activate under "plugins", set it up with your pub-xxxxxxxxx id. configure and you are good to go.

    regarding adsense, you can only use 3 ads concurrently.. or you will violate the google terms and condition as far as i know, so it's good to use more than one ad campaign.

    for dropdown or lists, you have to download and config the widgets under "design"

    hope that helps.
