    I'm using the beauty theme now. How do I edit the footer? Can I add my "terms of use" in the footer? How do I attach an "Agree to Terms" to the registation for commentors? How do I get my home" page to show only the post I put on it and not the other posts? If they must show, can I make them show only summaries until the corresponding page is accessed?
    Sorry to ask so many questions, but I'm new to this and having a bit of a tough time working it out.
    Thanks!

    How do I edit the footer?
    ¶ open footer.php at wp-content/themes/footer.php via ftp
    or via → the theme editor

    Can I add my "terms of use" in the footer?
    ¶ yepp, the same way, start where this tag starts <p>text</p>

    How do I attach an "Agree to Terms" to the registration for commentors?
    ¶ add one of those → plugins

    How do I get my home" page to show only the post I put on it and not the other posts?
    ¶ follow the steps in this → article and set only one post to show via the wp admin panel

    If they must show, can I make them show only summaries until the corresponding page is accessed?
    ¶ NOTE: if you do the above steps, you don't have to do the following steps.

    download → this index file and replace it with your current file
    can be seen in action at my → beauty wordpress theme

    Thanks! I found a plug-in for the terms of use for the blog and comments, and I have more control over my main page.

    As for the footer, I don't see a place to change the size of the text, and can't find "<p>text</p>." Where is this tag located? Where is the text size for the footer located?

    I located the footer reference on the stylesheet. Still, I don't see anything that says "<p>text</p>" in the stylesheet or in the footer. Should I add it somewhere?

    This is what I see in the footer.php:
    "<div style="clear:both;"></div>
    </div>
    <div id="footer">
    <p>Copyright © <?php echo date("Y"); ?> /"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> | Created by miloIIIVII | <?php wp_loginout(); ?></p>
    </div>
    <?php do_action('wp_footer'); ?>
    </body>
    </html>"

    This is the footer reference in the stylesheet:
    "#footer {background: transparent;width: 90%;margin: 0 auto;padding: 10px 0;text-align: center;border-top: 1px solid #C0C0C0;}"

    Well, you have the starting <b>p</b> tag here:
    <b><p></b>Copyright © <?php echo date("Y"); ?> /"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> | Created by miloIIIVII | <?php wp_loginout(); ?></p>

    and font size set up like so:
    #footer {<b>font-size:80%;</b>background: transparent;width: 90%;margin: 0 auto;padding: 10px 0;text-align: center;border-top: 1px solid #C0C0C0;}

    Well, you have the starting p tag here in bold:
    <p>Copyright © <?php echo date("Y"); ?> /"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> | Created by miloIIIVII | <?php wp_loginout(); ?></p>

    and font size set up like the added bold size:
    #footer {font-size:80%;background: transparent;width: 90%;margin: 0 auto;padding: 10px 0;text-align: center;border-top: 1px solid #C0C0C0;}

    I've tried it. I copied what you have in bold into the stylesheet at "#footer" and changed the font to 300% -- there was no visible change on the page. I changed it again to 2% -- again there was no visible change on the page.

    Is there another tag that is counteracting this? Is there another place on the stylesheet that should also be changed? Is there a time lapse between the moment when you make the change and when it is visible on the page?

    Well, I just changed the footer font size to 10px,
    see the Beauty demo, did you clean your cache?
    Do you use Firefox?

    It was the cache. Thank you for your patience with a newbie!
