Jan. Thanks for the note and the link. Greatly appreciated.

The terms “old” and “new” threw me. In my case, turns out, for the purpose of getting my development site back up and running after I move it to the client’s server, the “old” site is really the “new” site, as it existed on the development server. Go figure!

Yes, a little clarification please.

Moving from the development server to the client’s server, it looks like:

• The domain name will need to change from stephencoren.com/CC-NewSite-Dev to communitycooks.org
• The URLs will have to change (I think that’s a given, right?)
• The database name will need to change from sacoren_commuog9_cc to commuog9_cc

So, I think what I need to do is:

1. Backup the new site (the one I designed for my client on my development server) and its database to my local computer; and then
2. Follow the 3 steps outlined in “If You Don’t Care If Your Old Site Works”

Right?

If so, I’m confused about what WP Moving WordPress instructions calls the “OLD site” and the “new server.”

Should I simply think “DEVELOPMENT” instead of “OLD” in these instructions?

Development site

Existing site (to be replaced with the development site)

Answer: The form function is not necessary for a simple link to the Client’s paypal page. Just put the URL of the client’s Paypal landing page in Appearance > Menu > URL.

2nd try!

I’ve set up one box for main content, like this:

My client wants 3 or 4 boxes for content, like this:

What’s the best way to handle this?

Working website.

Thanks. Sounds reasonable.

And ha — I was going to list 2D! But it looked like that might be a formidable task, for me at least, at this point. Maybe underscores is a little more approachable, from a coding and css standpoint. I’ll check it out.

This is a good shift for me as I DON’T want to do the updating anymore. Happier doing design.

I spent a lot of time retro-fitting the Suffusion theme to get it to look the way it now does (a modest redesign of an existing site).

Some of it was learning curve. A lot of it was fitting a square peg in a round hole.

Don’t want to repeat that.

Aaah! Thanks.

So does that mean that the Suffusion theme is applying a class called “first-para” (to first paragraphs) but has not defined that style in the style.css?

Thanks!!

Thanks.

Is there an easy explanation?

If not, is there documentation that explains when WP adds <p> tags (or other tags)?

OK. Thanks. That’s helpful.

Hmmm. Great question. When I switch from Suffusion to another theme, the Featured Content widget disappears from the list of Widgets in the WP Widgets page. Does this confirm it’s part of Suffusion?

Thanks for the help. Much appreciated. GREATLY appreciated!

Yes, Ivan. Brilliant! Thank you.

If it’s easy, would you mind stating this in English? (If it’s a chore, forget it.)

Andrew, these modifications go into a child theme that’s not over-written (to the best of my knowledge).
