The line of succession tries to be as straight as possible, so William's daughters would succeed before his nephews, just as George VI's daughter Elizabeth succeeded in 1952 ahead of her uncle and four male cousins. However William could have ten daughters and one baby son and that son would still succeed before his sisters; Jeffrey Archer tried to change the law a few years ago and the government said they agreed but have done nothing about it.
Incidentally, if King William died leaving a daughter and a pregnant wife, the daughter would become Queen but if his widow had a son, that baby would become king and his older sister would be out.

The eldest daughter would become queen. If there are sons and daughters from the king then the son would rule because yes men take precedence (bah). The line would only go to Harry's children if William had no kids at all.

If William is king and only has daughters the oldest daughter will become queen.
It does not matter what Harry has unless William has no children.
In that case then Harry's oldest son would become king or in the event of him only having girls then the eldest will again become Queen.

It is the first born male in the royal line who is next in line to be king, so if WIlliam only had daughters then Harry's sons would be crowned

William's offspring would get the Crown - regardless of gender.
It's wierd the way it works. If The Queen and Charles were to be killed, the Crown would fall to William - not to any of Charles' siblings (sorry I can't remember who's the oldest).

The oldest son of the crownprince will get the crown. If he has only daughters his oldest daughter will become queen.
His brothers kids don't matter because the direct line will always come first.

William's wife would be first in line if he were to die, then it would
probably be Harry. I don't know about the male/female thing vs.
Age but I don't think we'll get to that point but I had a dream that
when Prince William became King of England he would call himself "King Arthur" his second name. I'll be checking back for
other answers you get cause I"m curious.

Williams first son or eldest daughter if he doesn't have a son. Williams children are first in line then Harry and then Harrys children.

The crown will pass to Williams child as it is the natural line of descent.
