comment 3.1.3 auto-upgrade
I've done a lot of manual upgrades before, it's just SO much slower, having to wait for the FTP from PC to Server. Was hoping that since my upgrades used to work, there was a simple security fix, maybe setting attributes on some folders.

comment plus sign not working in widget “Header: Nav Menu”
I'll try the Semiologic forum; here is where their widget is described: semiologic.com/software/nav-menus

comment plus sign not working in widget “Header: Nav Menu”
I guess it's a widget in the Semiologic theme. I still get confused about what is "standard" and what is a widget; they don't seem to get labeled as 'add-ons' when you use them. I just know it used to work, and now it doesn't. I do know it's dangerous to use widgets that go-away when you switch themes.

comment Switching themes without losing widgets?
@Svish - well, if I spend time creating text or menus on the right side of my blog, I consider that a type of content. The posts and pages of course were not effected by change of theme. But if I lose 30 minutes and all my links, I consider that a loss of content.

comment Switching themes without losing widgets?
Well, I have my website more or less working, but I don't want to be stuck with the 2010 theme forever. I want to branch out and try some others at some point. I focus on content first, then the theme and GUI stuff second, which to me seems more logical. But if the sidebars are totally dependent on the theme, then I guess the theme has to come before all non-post non-blog content, correct?

comment Proper implementation/use of code/syntax highlighting
Thanks, finally got it to sort of work. It looks really ugly though - like the styles are not being picked up correctly. cmstrainingvideos.com/?p=53 Any suggestions now? Before, I was actually losing code when I put it in the HTML editor, but maybe when it is in the <pre> tag, it preserves it.
