Hi Vkaryl,
it's rather quiet around here, so let me jump in although I cannot answer that stuff very well. And personally am stuck with an older version due to win98, but most settings still work the same. Not all, but anyway, just try.
- For the window position, no idea if it helps with 2 screens, but take a look here:
F2 > GUI > At startup
- for editing posts in this forum, that logically only works if you were logged in when posting
- you may want to try the latest beta version, KM75+U1. The download link is in this forum in the announcement section. Attention you need 2 downloads: the update1 is a separate download and gets unzipped into the KM75 root folder, to overwrite and update it.
- for "looking at the Themes and Plugins download pages"...
Uh oh, just be warned, the homepage and wiki are horribly outdated for the most part! Even if the editing date may be new, that doesn't mean a thing. Especially those "plugins" sound suspicious...
If you're looking for extensions (macros/addons), that's a long story. Since KM74 there's not only the traditional macro system that works (*most* old ones in theory still work, just try), but with some skills some complicated FF addons may work as well in the future. But currently that's still in beta development and requires some user dedication (it's not easy) and also some luck.
You find extensions best here in the forum in the extensions chapter, and on the non-official archive site kmext.sf.net
As for themes (skins), they should work of nearly all ages, certainly since KM1.5, but you may have to manually update a button or two with a newer command name. Rather easy, look into the graphics section of this forum for skins, and read this thread

- In KM skins work very differently as you probably expect. Each skin defines not only the "look" of buttons, but also defines which commands are available out of the box! So when switching skins, some function buttons may disappear, and others may appear... (PS: Have you already discovered the privacy bar? The only hidden toolbar out of the box)
Of course you can add additional functions and buttons yourself any time, by copying them from one skin into another, but it's handywork and requires editing text files.
- in KM75 there was introduced a new skin system for the default skin. But it seems rather complicated yet, so if you want to try customizing, rather try with an old skin first. Both systems work currently parallel, and the old one is far easier. Copy over the old default skin folders "Phoenity" from KM1.54, it's still the best example to demonstrate the system.
Or simpler yet, take the "Klassic" still included in current KM, but that one is really *ancient* ;-)
- the FAQ page (linked from the homepage, not from forum) also answers lots of beginner questions
Hope it helps a bit, and hasn't scared you off too much ;-)
