Post installation

Is it possible to remove the authoring information from a node? (name, date, etc.)

If it makes a difference, I'm using the chameleon theme.

Configuration lets me set how many words before homepage story trailer cuts off to 'Read more'.
Rather than doing that, I'd like to be able to compose a short trailer first paragraph and then
insert markup that stops the trailer there, no half sentences, with the rest on the new page.
Is there an option in Drupal for that?

I've seen a few threads about this but haven't found a definitive answer. Is there a way to display comment scores? (using 4.4)

I am using Drupal 4.2.0 and almost everything is great. The one problem I'm having is overtime I type a apostrophe (') or quotation mark (") I get a backslash (/) sometimes several in a row . At first I could ignore it but not it's preventing me from entering scripts into my nodes. Can anyone give me any advice on this issue ? if you could send replies to func@spunc.com I am running on Debian 3.0 .

I'm not sure if this is a w.bloggar or a drupal problem.

This is the problem:
User "Tom Olav" is an admistrator, and have no trouble to use w.bloggar
User "rew" is not an administrator, he can submit personal blogs on the webside,
but when i try to do this with w.bloggar, i get an error "You are not authorized to access this page".
I have tried to give the user all of the permission available, with the same result.

I'm running drupal 4.4.0 and have the blog and blog api module installed.

sorry for my bad english, norwegians you know ;)

As a result of reconfiguring my account with my hoster, I will need to change names and u/p of the DB that Drupal uses. Before giving the hosters the OK to reconfig, I wanted to ask here if this is going to cause me any unexpected problems. Is is just a matter of changing the relevant lines in the config file, or am I looking at more work?
