    In reply to: Personal Header?

    I’m stuck with this problem as well. I use a Mac and usually edit all my files via my ftp program, Transmit. When I try to edit the header file I get this message:

    <?php

    if (! isset($wp_did_header)):
    if ( !file_exists( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/wp-config.php’) ) {
    if ( strstr( $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’], ‘wp-admin’) ) $path = ”;
    else $path = ‘wp-admin/’;
    die(“There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.”);
    }

    $wp_did_header = true;

    require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/wp-config.php’);

    wp();
    gzip_compression();

    require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/template-loader.php’);

    endif;

    ?>

    This is not a lot of help. How do I create the required code file and where do I upload it too?

    Why is it so difficult to change the header – it sounds simple enough in the instructions, until you actually try to go in and make what at first glance, appears to be an easy edit. Why are the files not editable?

    Can anyone help? I see that others have a personal header on their blog, and I’d love to have one too.

    Feeling somewhat desperate here!

    Edited to add – WordPress is part of my Fantastico control panel at through my webhost – the files are already uploaded on the server but I can’t edit them. Send help!
