I changed my wordpress template today and using the free arthemia template,however i am having a few issues and cant figure this out.
I do not know html,but i just followed instructions.
Here is my problem when i add a post i would like to add a picture that would show up ,especially if it is a featured post i would like to add a picture to it.i done this by creating a custom field image and for the value field i inserted the URL from the wordpress content upload gallery .
Eg:http://www.abcd.com/wp-content/uploa...0/08/image.jpg

Also can you tell me how do i find the category number in wordpress ?

Thanks looking forward to some help to fix this .

Your image link isn't working.

To get the category number:

"Once you're logged in your WordPress dashboard, go to Manage and then in Categories.
Simply put your mouse cursor on the "edit" link related to the category you want to know the ID and look on your browser's status bar: As you can see on the screenshot below, 1 is the id of the category."

First, insert the image into the post, that is if you want it to appear there.

Next, you're on the right track with the custom field. However with this particular theme, you're only supposed to use a portion of the path to get it to show as a featured image. Try inserting wp-content/uploads/2010/08/5-ppc-mistakes-help.jpg in the value field.
