One of the things I have is several tabs with text at the top of the main page, which is the blog page. Tiki has built in support for tabs (unlike glFusion where I had to add it), but is there a way to do this combination of static text and blog?


If I understand what you're trying to do, then "yes" — via Tiki's modules. You can put anything in a module (static text, tabs, menus, and so on) and then place the module anywhere you want (in the header, topbar, menubar, top of page, and so on). See the docs for details. Additionally, you can add custom coding to the blog header. Again, see the docs for details.

glFusion enables embedding anything (blog entries, static pages, links, media) in any page, such as a blog post, and I think that Tiki has similar functionality, but I'm not sure how extensive it is or how to use it.

Through the use of "plugins" you can embed anything in any Tiki page. See the docs for details.

One last thing, I would like to know what's needed to move a Tiki installation from one URL to another (on the same server). This way if I decide to move to Tiki I can construct my new site and then later replace the one I have

You'll need to move the database and all of the files in your Tiki root directory. Essentially you backup the old site, and restore to your new location. You can then re-run the installer if you've renamed your database.
