Oh, thanks guys, the bootstrap seems to work perfectly. I could see how the database method would be helpful as you could easily do some quick scaffolding, and supply a client with an easy way to change website settings such as the site name, and little things such as 'posts per page' for instance. But since the website name is the only thing I need stored for now, i'll use the constant method. BTW Lecter if you updated it with the caching that would be great. I may use it some day actually. In fact, you could actually even make it into a plugin.
