Where's My Image?

You will notice that your blogroll will not have an image like mine. These steps don't show you how to do this but don't worry, I have you covered. Go to my Add an Image to Blogroll training to learn how to do this. That training is as easy as this one and should only take a few minutes at most. Adding images is important to get your visitors to explore the different posts on your site. Remember that most of your website visitors are in "scam mode" and your images are essential to capture their attention.

Thanks for checking out this training. Check back often as I will be adding new training on a regular basis.

I am on my second website, but I didn't get real proficient with the first one. I am so confused that I am ready to start over, but I'm not sure that will help. Here's the issue(s): I do have categories such as reviews, avoid these and improve your presence. I have posts under them and the posts appear in my sidebar. So far so good. However, when I select a post from the sidebar, I want it to open as a full article preferably under the appropriate category. But it opens as a link. You then have to click that link to go to the article. I want to get rid of that intermediary click.

2. That intermediary link I'd like to show in my blog roll. Just the link and a photo. However, I have a title, a link and the photo. It has to be a post not a page or else it doesn't show in the sidebar. But I can't make the title a link.

3. Lastly, I appreciate your patience. When you select reviews or improve presence, right under the menu it says Archives for that category. It isn't a link it is annoying and it didn't ever come up on my other site.I want to get rid of it, but I don't know where it came from.

I have tried to compare this site to my other as far as pages, posts and categories, and I know I must be doing something obviously stupid, but after 3 days I haven't found it. I'm really trying to make this site a go and get with it, but I have to get this fixed before I continue. I'd really appreciate assistance.

Thank you for the training. I've been trying to figure out how to put all my images of seashells on my correct seashell pages. I have a hundred thirty-nine posts I need to do. One for each seashell. When you click on the image, I want to have the information and description of that particular seashell. I hope that this is what will enable me to do that.
