Unconventional theme install instuction have me stumped.
-
Bought a theme on Themeforest today called ‘Sharp’… here is the demo. Downloaded the zip and tried to upload via wp but got an error stating the header tags weren’t correct. I checked out the help file and this is what it says:
“A) HTML Structure – top
All of the information within all the pages ecxept navigation are nested within a div with an class name “page”.
Every page is nasted within a div with id of ‘about’,’work’,’social’ or ‘contact’
If you would like to edit the color, font, or style of any elements in one of these columns, you would do the following:
.page a {
color: #someColor;
}If you find that your new style is not overriding, it is most likely because of a specificity problem. Scroll down in your CSS file and make sure that there isn’t a similar style that has more weight.
So, to ensure that your new styles are applied, make sure that they carry enough “weight” and that there isn’t a style lower in the CSS file that is being applied after yours.
B) CSS Files and Structure – topThe CSS file contains all of the specific stylings for the page. The file is separated into sections using:
/* HEADER */
/* HOME (Navigation) */
/* ABOUT */
/* WORK */
/* SOCIAL */
/* CONTACT */
/* FOOTER */
If you would like to edit a specific section of the site, simply find the appropriate label in the CSS file, and then scroll down until you find the appropriate style that needs to be edited.”
This is a new one on me. Can someone walk me through this. Do I use FTP to put the folder in my “themes” directory? If so, THEN what?
Here is the stylesheet code in case you need it:

Thanks in advance,
