WordPress - Adding extra sections to the navigation bar (in my theme)

Howdy,

Any one know what I would need to change to add another navigation bar section (ie. Pages, Categories, Meta, etc) in my current theme? It's just going to be for random text so adding another link section/blog roll wouldn't work.

Any help?

Edit: I forgot to link to the blog. Heh. Random Blogger.

 

You add it to the sidebar.php file of the theme.

<li><h2>New Section</h2>
content goes here.
</li>

 

Oh, thanks ^^;;

I have another question: how can I have the number of posts with a tag shown in the Categories section? ie. Reviews (1)

 

Change the categories php tag to this one;

<?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=1'); ?>

PHP:

 

Oh, you're brilliant xD

 

Lol....

 

Check out some plugins which are available, i use adsense deluxe but ain't really got the hang of using it yet

 

Another question: How do I limit the number of recent blog updates shown on the front page (to five)?

Haha, this thread is turning into a How-to thread xP

 

It's in the admin options>reading, set it there.

 

Is there a way to not show the link to a specific page on the Page side bar? If not, do you know any extentions that let you do that?

Another question: What do I edit to put the <!-- google_ad_section_start --> / <!-- google_ad_section_end --> tags at the begining and end of the post content on the main page?

 

To exclude certain pages you add this to your code in the sidebar template:

exclude=3,4,16,17,18,19,20,21,26,27,28,29,31,33&

right before the title_li part of the pages php tag.

And all those numbers are pages I've excluded, they are the number id of the corresponding page, change them to your own.

I don't know anything about the google stuff.

 

Another question:

Any ideas which file needs to be included to connect to the database?

Never mind, found it ^^;;

 

I have been pushing WordPress as the blogging platform of choice. With so many design firms switching to ExpressionEngine-- I was a bit concerned about this practice. Glad to see so many WordPress gurus here...

Q...

 

Another question!

You know the incoming links section on the Admin CP? How does that work? By recording the http refferer header? If so, then why doesn't it say that there are incoming links from these forums?
