Yes, thank you. That was the error. It turns out there was a black and a white theme. Now, I have to figure out why the posting isn’t working in another matter, but is still same type of warning. Thanks!

I can log into the admin panel fine. I see the default theme.
I can’t install the new theme.
I didn’t unzip the folder. I just chose to load the zip file directly. I will look at see if there is something else in there.

Not sure I’m following. You are saying I need to do something either via the GoDaddy FTP or Fetch vs. doing anything with switching the themes in WordPress?

I’ve just spent quite a few hours on building the other site; the theme was purchased from a 3rd party and they assure me it’s fine.

Submitting some content since when I checked the “notify me” box the first time I got the message, “slow down.” ??

And, I really don’t understand the hierarchy parent pages, categories and subs. Perhaps the answer lies in there?

Perhaps the links too. I think I’m making it out to be more difficult than it needs to be. Got a feeling the links, categories and sub categories is the key.

I found a GREAT YouTube video that approaches the building of the WordPress site in a totally different way than the WordPress and MAMP “How to”. It was great; easy to follow: and it WORKED.

However, I haven’t attempted to upload a site yet. I’m going to build something very small and see if it works (A new site vs. rebuilding an existing that has to stay live until I’m ready).

In any event, I got to the Youtube video by putting in “Installing WordPress using MAMP” It is the one by Creativetoria. There are a couple and there is one that always shows up, but that isn’t the best. This one was. It’s about 8 1/2 mins long and it was excellent. I have already created two databases with it and the local host works perfectly with MAMP each time. Here’s the link, but if that doesn’t show up, go to YouTube and put in the info I mentioned. She also has a step by step for MAMP PRO.

still could use the final step. Can’t get it to disappear.

I have an address line
Asheville, NC

above the name of the website
12Twelve Collaborative solutions (12Twelve.me)

I can get rid of the address line,
but not the dup of the title.

I want to get rid of the title.

And I don’t want to delete, just hide.

where to the // go? I’ve tried just before //<div id and /before and / at the end of the string. Next to it? Or flush left? How far? Funny I easily deleted a footer I wanted by putting the two // just after <?php, but can’t get this repeat to delete. I have managed to add a / to the front of it a couple times. Very close!!!

Could any of this be “it”?

?>

<div id=”site-info”>
” title=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ); ?>” rel=”home”>
<?php bloginfo( ‘name’ ); ?>

</div><!– #site-info –>

<div id=”site-generator”>

Thanks, but I’m not sure what I’m looking for Root.
What would that php function be called that calls up the url and puts it in the page?

I’d like to eliminate the repeat of the header title in the footer of twentyten. Can you tell me what that is called, as the actual title in single quotes does not show up. I want to be careful here. I have no idea what I’m doing in editing code. But I’d like to get rid of that repeat. Thanks so much

I created a file off line. I had to create a config file to work with MAMP. I now want to upload this site. When I installed WordPress on the server, and it asked me to name the database, user name, password I rushed thru it and forgot what that information is. I need that information so I can change the wp-config.php file for the offline site so it will match.

In the meantime, what I’m doing is uninstalling wordpress from the server and starting over. It seems like it will be the fastest way to go. This time, when the window drops down and asks me to create a database, username, user password, I’lL WRITE THEM DOWN! Then, hopefully, I go into the wp-config file that is local. Change that info, then upload on ftp and it works. Hope. Full. Ly.

Thanks for your response though. Maybe someone will be able to tell me where that inforaation is (what file it is stored in), or if there is a widget that will let you see that information. It helps to have it if you are moving a site, too.

No, i need the information to fill in the config.php file.

?? I don’t think we should hold our breath. I think it’s another case of “well if you don’t know I am not going to tell you because that makes me an expert.”

I answered you with what I think may work on the other site. Changing the mamp doc root each time. See if that will work.

The only thing I can think of, and I haven’t tried it yet as I am working on just one at the moment, is that each time you launch MAMP, you change the root directory to the name of the other website. There is an install for multisites but it looked WAY to confusing so I didn’t try that. If you set up each site correctly, then I am thinking you can work on each one separately (not at the same time) by changing the document root in MAMP when you run the localhost.
