    Check out the links to the posts
    The URLs are ?p=11

    I'm in the middle of moving my blog from blogger when I discover this
    I thought one of the benefits of WP was search optimization... shouldn't the links have static, keyword based URLs??

    You need to set that up in your options.

    Set your .htaccess folder in your root folder to 777
    Go to options -> permalinks
    Select which format you would like your URLs to be
    hit save
    return .htaccess back to 666

    How to set up the title from the current article title?

    As of now it is setup to show the same title no matter what section/blog post. (the title remains the same)
    How to change that and have the title come from blog title.


    Added this and this did not help. What am I missing.



    Thanks

    you could try the optimal title plugin
    That makes it go: the post title then the blog title.
    optimal-title
