ok i got my plugin opts... but now i cant c a WP super cache... i saw a W3 super cache but it was not installed already

@id0leyex If you are seeing it on my tutorial series, it's because I had to do a search for the plugin and install it. Let me know if downloading it / installing it works for you.

i dont have a plugin option at all... how do i get it?

@id0leyex So,..to be clear, you do not see "Plugins" on the left of your admin page? If you don't, then you need to contact your web hosting company and see if they can resolve it on their end. There is no option to show or hide the "Plugins" section.

Thank you for your prompt response. I guess I have changed my mind and will leave as is.  FYI: I have gone through your tutorials step-by-step. I watch your video, look at my own blog-in-progress while you are teaching. It is fantastic! Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorials.

@Shifraeliezar You are so welcome.  Glad they've helped.

[Shifraeliezar]

Thank you SO much for this tutorial. QUESTION: I want my blog to be 1 page only. Can I only have the blog page and not the "About" page? Can you explain how this would affect anything and if it's possible to have only 1 page? Thank you.

@Shifraeliezar Yes, you can have just a blog site. In your "Settings" under the "Reading" option, choose the option at the top to read your latest posts. You don't have to include any pages at all. Hope this helps.

nice video!there is a section at acertain website (mzoori.com) in the bottom right called open outcries .Could you be knowing how they do that?

[nigelum]

@mutumbakenya It looks like who ever designed the site installed a plugin. This allows the content that you see at the bottom right hand corner to be seen. It's a matter of searching for the plugin on the web, as well as your WordPress admin console.
