Migrating wordpress contents from localhost to the server

  • Hello all,
    I am new user in wordpress,
    1.I have read several topics regarding moving wordpress contents from one location(i.e localhost)to server but the main problem before me that i can not find my website same as it is on my localhost.

    2.when i upload my wordpress contents from localhost to godaddy(hosting account) server the media files are totally missing and everytime i have to attach them one by one.

    3.Another problem is that if i use the import option as you had suggested in forum,none of the media file is uploaded from import option and the admin panel shows that media file had not imported.

    Can someone help me about this topic plz?

    Thanks esmi
    for your help can you help me for one thing,here is the detail:

    As i have read all the Documents related to child theme given in the Document in www.ads-software.com
    1)According to the documentation they are saying that you can simply add a themename-child folder and add a style.css simly to your child theme folder.

    My question is that if in parent theme has more than one style.css as ex(rtl.css,editor-style.css,ie.css etc) can one css of child theme’s(style.css of child theme) replace all the mentioned css’s of parent theme.

    You really should have started a new thread for a new question.

    Your child theme style.css file is loaded by the browser AFTER the parent theme css files, hence it gets to override the parent settings. (except for !important). It doesn’t get to replace the parent files, they are still loaded, it just gets to have the final word about how your page gets styled.

    One minor annoyance about child themes is that it only goes to one level, there are no grand-child themes.

    Thanks for your support….
    Another One thing i want to know from you guys

    As i have read various topics regarding the use of the wp_enqueue_script() function.

    some of them saying use it in child-theme file function.php and some are saying use it in your function.php file of parent theme to enqueing the external scripts.

    1.What is the correct procedure of using function wp_enqueue_script()
    so that my theme functionality will remain unchanged?

    Can you suggest me what is the best way to use it…?

    The whole point of having child and parent themes, is that you NEVER change a file in the parent theme. Not just a little bit, not sometimes, not to do this or that, not ever.
    This means that when the theme is updated, you can inherit and use the refinements without reworking your whole development effort. Maybe you will need to tune some of your changes, but mostly you get to use the effort which other people put into the parent theme without additional consideration.
    Put your changes into the child theme.
