    Well I just tried to move my blogspot over to my own domain with WordPress, and this is how it looks: http://www.dark-truth.net/blog/

    Originally it looks like this: http://dark-truth.blogspot.com

    As you see, there is a post appearing in the right sidebar which I do not have any idea why, it dosnt matter what template I use. And further down the posts are splattered out really wide into the same sidebar, where I want to put adsense and menus and etc such as the "Welcome.." "Recent posts" & "Browse by tag" that appears way down in the bottom, these I would want on the side up where this Bible post for some reason appears, and I would want all posts includign that bible post to the left where the rest of the posts are correctly shown. I can't figure out how to move around these things - widgets? not sure as I'm used to blogspot... Any help greatly appreciated, I want my menus and stuff shown to the right and the "Looking for something?" search up on top below the banner etc...

    Anyone used with WordPRess who got an idea where I edit this stuff?

    Thanks!

    Basically I'm trying to figure out how to use it! lol..

    With blogspot it is so easy just moving around the elements in the layout... but here I can't figure out how to put the things in the right positions.

    There is a post on the right which is supposed to be below the rest on the left, and the menus and links etc is at bottom at the page but supposed to be at the right where that bible post is now... not sure how to fix that or move things around properly it show up like this on its own.

    Thnx

    No, i want those posts on the left and links on the right.

    Now one of the posts for some reason appear on the right, and far down on bottom of page is the links like "Welcome to Dark-Truth", "Recent posts", "Browse by tags" etc - and THESE I want to be shown to the right next to posts on left. The post called "Who wrote the bible" is shown on the right where these other categories are supposed to be, it should be below the main posts to the left and Im not sure why it appears to the right.

    Also I would like the search function that is on the bottom to be placed on top below the main banner of the site.

    And if you go to the post "Town mystified by strange nuclear mushroom shaped cloud" the text is suddenly splattered out all over the screen both in left and right field for some reason for all pots below it, while the above ones are correct taking smaller place in the left field, except for that Bible post showin on the right.. :S

    Thx mate

    There may be some unclosed tag in this post 'http://www.dark-truth.net/blog/2008/11/dvds-with-all-our-videos-movies-documentaries/

    You may deactivate that post to test it.

    Thanks for the input. I'm using Firefox. Will check with IE.

    And thanks I wil try deactivate the mentioned post and see!

    Any suggestions for the rest? On how to actually move around the elements, such as the links, the search box, and so on to put it where I want? In blogger this is very easy but here I can't figure it out.

    Cheers,
    TL
