Hey everyone, got few issues with wordpress:

1. How do I remove that tag line from my blog on this site:

Penny Auction Sites - Penny Auctions Reviews and Comparison | Penny Auctions Comparison - TOP Rated Penny Auction Sites

that goes right in the middle of a header.

2. When I insert the video from youtube by getting their "embed" code and placing in on my page though html and then editing anything on that page the video gets deleted I get left out with something like " " what is that and how do I place videos so it stays there whenever I editing anything on that page?

3. It it possible to have the title of the main page not to be displayed as the name of the menu as you see it up top? Seems like its the same case with every wordpress theme.

4. I have tried many wordpress themes and most of them display the "sites title" up top the page is there a way to disable that? Thank you very much in advance.

    Add the following to the bottm of your style.css file in the Appearance editor:

    .tagline {display:none;}

    In the latest version of WordPress you no longer need to use the YouTube embed code. You can simply copy and paste the standard URL into your blog post and WordPress will automatically created the embed codes for you to stop these issues from happening.

    3. It it possible to have the title of the main page not to be displayed as the name of the menu as you see it up top? Seems like its the same case with every wordpress theme.

    If you mean the titles in the navigation menu then yes. You need to be using a WordPress 3.0 compatible theme and the new WP menu system which is built it. That will allow you to name pages as you want them to be displayed on the page and then set a display name in the menu editor.

    4. I have tried many wordpress themes and most of them display the "sites title" up top the page is there a way to disable that? Thank you very much in advance.

    There are tons of themes that allow you more flexibility but they will usually be paid in most cases. The themes i'm aware of that really allow you to go wild are Headway, Builder (iThemes), Canvas (WooThemes) & Thesis (DIYThemes).
