I want to remove a few things but I don't know where to find them.

* Remove "___'s blog" after each post.
* Remove "submitted by [user] on [date]"

Also, I'm confused how to put categories on the menu
...

Thanks

Hi,
If you want to remove the "submitted by information" go to

admin/themes/settings.

Here you can enabel or disable the display of post information on diffrent node types.

I logged into my web site, and went to adminstration --> themes --> Configuration. That is the closest that I could find to what you mentioned.

The options that I saw there were:

upload logo
path to logo
Toggle display:
Site name
Site slogan
Mission statement
Primary links
Secondary links
User pictures in posts
User pictures in comments
Search box
Primary links
Secondary links

That's all that is shown there.... Do I need an additional module to edit themes from that section?

It looks like you have been on one of the configuration pages för a specific theme. There is a "global settings page" wich has the option to enable or disble Post information.

Go to Administer > Themes.

There should be two tabs on top of the page (List and Configure) Choose Configure and now you should be on the Global settings page.

Here you should find the Display post section, just beneath Secondary links.

Thanks, I found it.

Is there also a way to get rid of the "___'s blog" at the bottom of each post? I don't want the word blog on my site anywhere and there is no need to put a name because there is only one author (me).

Thanks

I guess that you could comment out/ remove the "Implementation of hook_link()" in blog.module.. that should remove the link you se under your blog entries when they are promoted to the first page.

You find the file blog.module in the modules directory.

You could try to "comment out" or remove the code beneath from block.module and se if that gives the result you wanted. But please "back-up" your blog.module file first!

/**
 * Implementation of hook_link().
 */
function blog_link($type, $node = 0, $main = 0) {
  $links = array();

  if ($type == 'node' && $node->type == 'blog') {
    if (arg(0) != 'blog' && arg(1) != $node->uid) {
      $links[] = l(t("%username's blog", array('%username' => $node->name)), "blog/$node->uid", array('title' => t("Read %username's latest blog entries.", array('%username' => $node->name))));
    }
  }

  return $links;
}

There are some modules connected to taxonomy, like
Taxonomy Menu, Taxonomy Block, Taxonomy, Dhtml etc
http://drupal.org/project/Modules

I have not used categories too much but you could also look in the handbook under Blocks, there are some examples of custom blocks that may be of some help.

A "book-like" navigation block

or
Categories block as in Drupal 4.5
