    Hey

    No doubt this has been asked a million times and that there is a very simple answer however my knowledge of WordPress is still very basic.

    I use my site - alasdairsim.com - predominately as a basis for my freelance writing work however I have recently set up a blog on that site - alasdairsim.com/blog

    As you can see on my site, my name is on the left hand side - it is the Oulipo theme - I would however want this to change to something else for my blog as I will be pointing another domain to it. Is there a simple way that I can basically keep everything the same on the two pages in terms of layout etc... but change the page title - in this case where my name is? Apologies if this is an extremely simple question.

    Second; on my blog I use the <more> tag so that only the heading of the post and a brief description appears and then the reader can click the link the display the full post; I would like the date that the content was posted under each Blog post heading on the actual Blog page as opposed to just showing when the whole post is displayed - i.e. once the user clicks the 'Read More' link.

    Hopefully I have been descriptive enough here and no doubt there are two very simple answers to my questions however any help would be most appreciated.
