Ive just uploaded a quiz script to a site here - http://www.mumblyjumbly-prizes.com but im not sure how to do a few things.

1. How do i remove the Search box on the right of the screen? Ive gone into Widgets, there is a section called "Sidebar" but there is no Search box on the right to remove.

2. Also, how do i get all the quiz's listed on the right of the screen so you don't need to click on Quiz under Catagories to get to them.

3. How do i change the title of the site? At the moment it just shows the url of the site as the title. I know how to change the title of individual posts but i want to change the title of the main page.

Thanks for any help.

      >> With the Widgets section, all you do is drop the widgets you wish to appear on your sidebar into the blank section ....... and save

      2. Also, how do i get all the quiz's listed on the right of the screen so you don't need to click on Quiz under Catagories to get to them.

      >>Settings Menu - and then General - gives you the option to modify site title.

      Hope that helps

    • Hey, cooloer1, neat site. I'll have to play later.

      Anyway, for the searchbar, you need to go to the "custom.CSS" or "User.css" in the apperance>editor and put in this
      Code:
      #searchbar { display: none; }
      If you haven't either of these, you'll have to search your theme's CSS for where the search bar is.

      For the Menu, try a widget search for "dropdown menu" a neat one is at WordPress › WordPress CSS Drop-down Menu « WordPress Plugins

      Title attribute is in the "general" tab of the "settings" section. Also the tagline is there.

  • Hi Cooler1,

    When you set up your WordPress blog with a theme, some sidebar widgets are coded in. When you go to Widgets under Appearance you won't see any of these in the sidebar section, but when you start adding widgets you want, they ones that are coded in will be removed. That way you can add the ones you want. To make sure you have the quiz's added to your sidebar seperately instead of the category section you will need to use the Recent Posts widget. The only downside is that it only shows the latest 15 at maximum.

    Hope this helps,

    Leslie
