Welcome. WordPress is a very special project to me. Every developer and contributor adds something unique to the mix, and together we create something beautiful that I'm proud to be a part of. Thousands of hours have gone into WordPress, and we're dedicated to making it better every day. Thank you for making it part of your world.

If you are coming from 1.0 or greater, your existing templates should work perfectly with just one change to the way you call comments. If you are coming from a version earlier than 1.0 you will need to modify your templates slightly. Use the default index.php as your guide.
If you have customized your templates you will probably have to make some changes to them. If you're converting your 1.2 or earlier templates, we've created a special guide for you.

-WordPress can be manipulated quite a bit through the query string. To pass variables in the querystring, proceed the first variable name with a '?' question mark and every other variables with a '&' sign. You may never use this, but it is useful to know.
-index.php?m=200107 will display the month of July 2001.
-index.php?m=20010701 will display all posts from July 1st, 2001.
-index.php?w=20 will display the posts from the 20th week of the year, where January 1st is in the first week (according to PHP).
-index.php?p=50 will display the post labeled #50 in the database.
-index.php?s=blue+house will display the posts that match the search request "blue house".
-index.php?cat=1 will display all posts that belong to category #1 (1 is the default). you can add/rename/delete categories from WordPress's interface.
-index.php?author=1 will display all posts from the author #1
-index.php?p=50&page=1 will display the first page of post #50. this, again, should be used only with p=, for individual entries.
-You can also mix these variables, example: index.php?m=200107&s=hotdog will display the posts that match the search request "hotdog", but only in July 2001.
-WordPress has an XMLRPC interface. We currently support the Blogger API, metaWeblog API, and the MovableType API.
-The Blogger API has been completely emulated on WordPress, with some little differences:
-If you use blogger.newPost, your post is submitted without title and in category #1.
- However, you can type <title>my title</title> and/or <category>2<category> in the body of your post to make its title be 'my title' and its category be #2 (refer to your categories section to find out the ID numbers of the categories). WordPress would then delete that extra info from the body of your post once it is posted.
The metaWeblog and MovableType APIs are currently supported with the following exceptions:
