On one of my websites, the editor and subscriber have access to Dashboard, Profile and Plugins. This is really strange. There is no access to anything else - pages, posts etc.
Have tried re-installing wordpress and makes no difference.
Not using any user access plugins
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should test the capabilities of your users and re structure them accordingly. Have a look at The Codex to get a list of capabilities for editors and subscribers.
If you want to use plugins, you can find some that will allow you to edit the capabilities.
else you can then use get_role(), add_cap() and remove_cap() to correct their capabilities.
You should switch to a standard theme such as twenty twelve and see if it woks properly, of it does the problem is your theme and you should contact the theme author.

I'm building a site for a client that requires several languages. They have all the text required for all the languages. But what's the best (correct) way to implement this?
Thanks for your help!
I understand from your question that your client has different pages/posts already translated to several languages. If you are using wordpress I would recommend to use a wordpress translation plugin such as WPML (this is the only one I tested and It has always given me good results but it´s a premium plugin).
In case you want to investigate more, I found a good post comparing different wordpress translation plugins both free and premium.
Hope it helps!

I currently have a blog at blogger.com with a custom domain name. I have decided to manage my own blog using wordpress to be able to fully take advantage of all the cool wordpress plugins. Note that I am moving my domain as well. I won't be purchasing a new one.
I experimented a bit and found out that I can replicate the blogger URLs on my old blog and use the same on my new wordpress blog. For example, a Blogger URL for an article would look something like mydomain.com/this-is-my-title.htm. Wordpress url can also be manipulated to look exactly like that.
But still, as a precaution, I want to know if this move can still affect my ranking on search engines (not that there's much to speak of) in a negative way.
Noob with SEO stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
If you do complete replication of all URLs it should not be affected at all. For the URL's that you can't mimic but you know they are indexed - set up your server to fall back to the main page of your blog.

I have to build a custom plugin for a client who is using wordpress. I am dont use wordpress so I dont know how it works. I just want to understand how this will work..
I have to build them a search plugin that will be display inside a page. It will get data from an excel spreadsheet that lives on the server, so they can edit that content and it will pull all that data into the page. Is this a plugin? where do I start?
I will also need to use jQuery to do some more to the data once on the page.
Wordpress plugin develop does take some work, but it is extremely well documented. I would go to the following pages in the order that they are listed:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_a_Plugin
http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API
http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_Resources
Once you've gone through those pages, you should have a lot more information on plugin development and how you might do what you are after.
I had the same question. Looking at some plugins, it seems they are using short codes to place plugins in specific pages. Here's the link in wordpress:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API
For WordPress 6.0 please check this page:
Plugin developer handbook

I'm trying to figure out whether wordpress can handle the following requirements for a site:
incorporating yahoo weather api (and other widgets etc)
testimonial page (user inputs, which have to be moderated back-end and approved)
image gallery (with back-end manager)
video gallery (basically youtube video links - with backend manager)
extremely custom design
I know WP is powerful, but can it handle these requirements? How easy/difficult is it to integrate plugins to handle this functionality?
Thanks.
PS. I know this is not a programming question per se, but there are several such "capabilities" questions on the stack!
Yes WordPress would allow you to do all of the above.
You would have to implement this yourself as a plugin. There maybe a plugin already available. This link should help you get started, http://www.binarymoon.co.uk/2010/03/yahoo-weather-api/
The commenting system would easily allow you to do this
There are heaps of galleries, try nextgen gallery, works great.
You could easily provide an admin panel which would allow users to paste the youtube video code in. See the WP docs. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_options_page and http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Menus
WP allows custom themes and they are fairly easy to construct with a little programming knowledge. Simply searching on Google will find you a abundance of walk through tutorials.

I’m farely new to Wordpress but are working on putting a page together which has a very simple purpose. I’m creating it for a customer with little or none IT experience so I want to create a user he can use to login and edit his pages – and nothing more. No settings, no comments, no posts, no links, no nothing, just create, delete and edit pages and maybe edit his own profile or at least his E-mail and password.
I can see that wordpress has some predefined roles for users but none of them completely does what I want and they either has to little or to many rights. I’ve been looking at the wordpress page http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities but can’t seem to get a clear answer.
Is it in any way possible for me to create my own user role (e.g. customer) where I can set the rights I want for him?
Thanks
Sincerely
Mestika
Install the Role Manager plugin. It does exactly what you want.
You can simply hide all unnecessary options from the admin panel. Use Adminimize plugin.
