For the site info block, how do I just delete some of the info in there? I have to create a 'template' but I don't understand it. How would I go about fixing this?
I just want:
Members
Series
Stories
Authors
Also, for the category feature on the index page, how would I go about moving it to the right hand side where the side block is?
The index page is at: http://www.foreverdestined.net
Thanks!
RE: Site info-
You need to go into Admin>Blocks>Options (next to site info). You don't have to create a template. Just go into the block. I'd delete everything already in the block and put it back in. You have to use the {} tags (get them by doing Shift+[ or ]). Here is how I set mine up (using the fields you want):
Members: {members}
Series: {series}
Stories: {stories}
Authors: {authors}
That should work.
RE: Moving Categories, I'm not entirely sure about. Let me know if the site info stuff works though.

To change the category over to the right you will need to open index.pl and play there. (This is not the solution because I just test it and it almost worked I would need to tweak so I leave that to you)
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : header -->
{welcome}<br /><br />
<div align="center"><table width="75%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td class="c1">{categories_title}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="c2">{categories_content}</td>
</tr>
</table><br /><br /></div>
<hr />
<div class="n1">{news_title}</div><div align="center">{news_content}</div>
</td>
<td class="m2">
<div class="m3">{info_title}</div><div class="m4">{login_content}<br /><br />{info_content}</div>
<br /><br />
<div class="m3">{random_title}</div><div class="m4">{random_content}<br /><br /></div>
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : footer -->
Remove this bit: <td class="c1">{categories_title}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="c2">{categories_content}</td>
</tr>
</table><br /><br /></div>
<hr />
and paste towards the bottom:
<div class="m3">{categories_title}</div><div class="m4">{categories_content}<br /><br /></div>
You can make the skin unviewable to the public by going Admin->Skins and checking it (but I also suggest you just upload a second copy of zen and use that as your tester, rename zentest or something.

Thanks to both of you. It worked.
As for the second one, I deleted some more off the index.tpl and pasted what you told me to and it worked. =]
Do any of you know how to change the time zone on the news?
I don't think the time zone is alterable because it's the timezone of where the webhost's database is located. I'm in Texas, my webhost is in Canada and the time seems to correspond with East coast instead of Central time. I just ignore it. But I may be wrong, someone may have figured a way around that.

You're correct about the time, Babaca. Not much can be done about that I'm afraid.

Gotcha, thanks. However, on my site, it doesn't correspond with the East coast because I'm in the East coast, lol. Thanks, though. =]
