Bukan itu, itu adalah judul <title> pada browser, lihat contoh dari @bogy; meta. Sekedar informasi dari SEO Checker, itu sudah Anda isi dengan “Souvenir pernikahan, perlengkapan ulang tahun, dan lain lain”.

Loop yang dikatakan @bogy tentu loop yang ada di index.php.

Bila Anda ingin pada halaman depan hanya menampilkan beberapa kalimat pengantar tanpa diganggu postingan, bisa juga dengan cara menggunakan page-template atau front-page yang disediakan tema.

Coba tambahkan media query, sepertinya itu akan berhasil membuat blog tampil lebih baik di semua ukuran layar. Untuk itu stylesheet harus diedit dan tidak perlu menambahkan skrip.

Misalnya pada stylesheet tertera:
#primary { float: left; width: 69%; }, lalu untuk ukuran layar monitor yang lebih kecil kita tambahkan media query:

@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
}

lalu ubah style di atas menjadi:
#primary { float: none; width: width: 95%; margin: 0 auto; }.

Untuk lebih jelas simak http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/#media0 dan https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Media_queries

Dan gunakan bantuan plugin ini http://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-responsive-test/ atau yang ini (belum saya coba) http://wordpress.org/plugins/respondjs/

Coba dengan sedikit pergantian code berikut ini:

Itu namanya featured image (gambar fitur). Letak dan ukuran gambar fitur pada setiap tema berlainan. Anda bisa coba pakai tema Origin. Tema ini juga menempatkan gambar fitur di bagian atas artikel. Atau coba cari tema di direktori tema dengan tag featured image.

belakangan ini aku kesulitan untuk masuk ke dashboard wp-admin dan selalu mengalami wordpress error

Maksudnya terkadang error dan terkadang tidak, atau sama sekali tidak bisa akses dasbor?

Coba lihat-lihat seputar permasalahan yang sama disini http://wordpress.org/search/Can%27t+Select+Database?forums=1

Mau belajar? Coba belajar dulu buat tema dengan menggunakan tema dasar, lalu dimodifikasi hingga tampilannya tampil seperti yang kita inginkan.

Tema dasar itu dapat diambil di http://underscores.me/
Untuk panduan silahkan lihat website para kontributornya (salah satunya ialah http://kovshenin.com/2013/better-wordpress-theme-development/) yang tertera di bagian bawah situs itu. Dan jangan lupa melirik ke http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development

Setelah sempurna anda bisa mencoba mengirimkan tema anda kepada WordPress.

Selamat mencoba.
