I’m Addicted to WordPress

Well I’m addicted. This WordPress thing is Brilliant!! Why haven’t I discovered it sooner?? I had just started getting into blogging with Blogger (as it was free with my Google account – and I wanted to see what functionality you actually get and whether it could be used to build a quick CMS for a client – see my first attempt at http://funkybathmama.blogspot.com

Then I hear about WordPress and I’m immediately hooked! Love the fact that it self installs on your server with no fiddly set up. Love the fact that you are inc ontrol of the php and css directly so you can make up your own theme as you go along. LOVE the rich text editor!

Things I do want to find out more about are:

1) Why my sitemap and archives links don’t seem to work

2) Can you customise the admin pages? – not very good if your going to give this to a client and you don’t want em to know its wordpress

3) I want to get a mail form submission to work on these One and One servers – I think you have to use something called FormMail.pl (???)

4) I’ve got rid of the ugly text based blog title in the h1 tags and used graphic text as a header – but this is going to be an SEO nightmare – how can I combine the two? (I know this isn’t strictly WordPress but it would be good to know)
