index.html

[sasquatch]

hey,
i'm pretty new at this. i'm trying to set my blog up but i find it frustrating that i can't edit it as the html. i mean i want to be able to add sections on my own, on the blog page but i don't understand and know if it's possible. for example, how do i manually add a <div> let's say on the blog...i wish i can edit the source code of the blog, but there is no index.html in wp-content folders.

the 'title' that you enter from within the wordpress dashboard automatically links to the blog's link http://example.com/blog, but what if i want to add a separate section with links?

please help

If you are using wordpress, you add additional pages under the "pages" category. I advise you don't edit the files themselves until you become a wordpress pro... it is designed to be managed/modified through the wp-admin interface.

the thing is, pages link to within the blog. so if i make a page called 'home', it only lets me have a link like: http://example.com/blog/?page_id=109

it doesn't allow me to make it into something like: www.google.com
