Post installation

I hope this is clear. In the area where I create content - pages, story, or book pages - due to the annoying length of my categories, the actual posting form is almost at the bottom of the page. It's a ton to scroll through. I want to know if I can make the following changes and how and in what templates I would do that. I am using the Fancy theme.

Is it possible to use some sort of Or statement in the Arg function? So it could be like "arg(1)=="9" or "12"" or something? I know next to no PHP.

Hello there. Just installing Drupal, after an agonizing search for something to replace PmWiki and Postnuke as my main web-site tools. I find that Freelinking does (theoreatically) everything I really wanted in terms of Wiki functionality, but I'm encountering an issue:

CamelCase links work properly. A link to ThisNewPage will create node ThisNewPage etc.

I just signed on to my site this morning and I see this:

My entire front page has been replaced with raw paramaters. Any idea what might be causing this? It's like druapl has suddenly ceased parsing all of the paramaters. As far as I know nothing has changed with my server (although I can check with the administrator), and I'm not quite sure what to do from here. All of the databases are completley intact, as are the files (as far as I can tell). What might cause this?

I'm using the profile module, and I'd like to have some intro text on each category profile page. So, if someone clicks the Get Involved profile tab, they see some text before they are presented with the various checkboxes and pulldown menus.

Any way to do this? Aside from Civicrm, which I've abandoned after much frustration (couldn't back it up), I don't see a way to create these intros.

Thanks.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the news aggregator link from Navigation menu? I've tried disabling it, but the child categories remain and do not have a disable option. I've also tried moving it under the Admin menu so users cannot see it... yet the news aggregator link still comes up.

Any ideas?

(Yes, the news aggregator still needs to function. I'm just looking to remove the link)
