Thanks. I’ve made very minor changes to HTML in Blogger. I’m guessing the line of code that makes up a template tag is inserted into the code for my WP site. I’ll ask around and see if I can find how to do that.

Thanks. I’d really like to write a tagline under the header that says what the purpose of the blog is. And to edit the About text. I looked through the Word Press Lessons text and don’t see where it says how to do those things. Rather than keep coming back here, is there a better place that explains how to edit? I know how to add a blog entry.

My blog is the dashboard?

OK, another dumb question: How do I keep my blog from being visible. I just now applied a new theme, and haven’t started writing it yet. Is it visible on the web? How do I know?

Is the dashboard the page that comes up when I go to forums and click on View Your Profile in the upper right hand corner? Because I don’t see the version at the bottom of that page.

And what is wp-includes/version.php ? Is that something that goes at the end of wordpress.com/ in the URL address? Because I show there is not such site as wordpress.com/wp-includes/version.php

So I don’t need an FTP app to upload the WP theme folder to the BH theme folder.

I should have written BH lets me select the WP theme folder, and place it in the directory theme folder.

My uploaded theme is not listed in available theme.

I’ve read the directions, as much as I’m able to understand jargon that is written for people who already know what to do. I think if I just had some help uploading the theme folder to the directory, I’d be OK.

BlueHost lets me select the theme folder, found here:

home/public/wp-content/themes

Inane question #1: BlueHost has two public folders. One is ftp public, the other is html public. I went with html public. Is that correct?

So I just uploaded the contents of the theme folder to the themes folder on my directory. Now what? When I view my site, the same old default theme is there. WP says the theme is supposed to automatically change.

Not in Mac on Firefox

That was the first thing I did.

I found a theme I liked. It clicked on test to make it full screen. The only way I can download it is to quit out of themes, then search the name of the theme, then download. Is there an easier way?

I selected a theme from the WP site, and downloaded the folder to my desktop. Then I uploaded the folder to the directory. Now what? I’m still seeing Kubrick. I uploaded Freedom Black.

I would also like to know how to upload a theme into my directory. I’m working on a MacBook Pro, OSX 10.4.
