How can I remove the sidebar from my front page? I want to have a static page and it looks terrible with the widgets.

It all depends on the editing possibilities within your theme. Many themes have settings for lef, right or no sidebar on frontpage, category pages, pages and posts.

It can be relatively simple if the theme you are using has a template that removes it for you.

Go on to the edit part for the page you want to remove the side bar on, and have a look under template. There may be one called something like "no sidebar" or "full width".

Other options are using a plugin, or creating a child theme and removing yourself(a bit too advanced I feel for now).

In summary-Look for either a template, or a plugin.

Hope that helps

Thank you, this helped a lot!

You are very welcome. Anytime.

I found a an author who sells her book on her own website and it fits into my niche, though she is not set up on any affiliate networks like clickbank. Is there a straitforward

Just tell her what you do and ask her if there's a way to get something going.

I think you should set up the relationship in whatever way you both feel comfortable. Clickbank or something similar would be easiest in terms of linking purchases and payment. You will want to be as hands off as possible so purchases don't become an adminstrative nightmare.

My website is getting more traffic and I am getting email optins, but I'd like to offer my subscribers an ebook. Have any of you created an ebook? If so, what tools did you use

Many of the ebooks I have received are in plain .pdf format.
So the easiest to do is to use Word or a similar text editor and simply save as .pdf.
There are many design features in Word that can make the ebook visually appealing.
If you plan to write for Kindle or other readers, there are tools for that.

Layne asks a good question. With regards the PDF versions of eBooks (i don't want go to Kindle etc for Free give aways) how do you control copying or forwarding to other people? Cheers, William.

I'm sure it's a setting on my wordpress theme but I'm having trouble setting it up so the blogroll and the home page displays just an excerpt of each blog instead of the entire

If it's not built into your theme then you can use the Read More tags.

Go to settings and then reading. From there you can set it up to do just that. Now if your theme has its own setting, you just need to go to your theme's settings and then check the appropriate boxes to show an "excerpt".

That makes sense, the two options under reading are "show summary" or "show full text". The "show summary" box is already checked so I'm not sure what's up.

Go to your theme's settings and I'm sure you'll have the option there. What theme are you using?

Yeah it's probably one of those complicated themes. Try messing with the layout or something, but I'm not familiar with that theme.

I would like to have a feature image that shows with the post's preview but that does not display itself above the post once clicked. Any help?

Layne you can edit the single.php file to stop this

Yes there are themes where you can do this in settings, for example Shooting Star.

Not possible unless you can do that in a theme, and i have not seen such a theme yet. Do you just want the image somewhere else in the post or not at all?

I want it somewhere else in the post.

I'm not sure that is possible. It would definitely be Theme dependent.
