    I didn’t need a 1and1 refund. I just needed to manually put wordpress on my domain so I could install a template. To get a custom theme, download it, and follow the instructions in the readme. For instance, I got comicpress, and got it working perfectly. My result: https://delayed-reaction.sk8brder40.com/

    Alright, thanks! I finally figured out how to get wordpress setup. I was having issues with the mySQL. Now I can finally use comicpress instead of manual updates for my website.

    I’ve been using FTP for years for my sk8brder40.com site. I use SmartFTP, in fact. The problem is, I don’t think there IS ftp access for my blog, because it isn’t something uploaded to my account, it’s a blog that you set up on the 1and1 website. I have a screenshot of what I CAN do with my blog here:

    EDIT
    Just to clear anything up, this blog isn’t my website, sk8brder40.com is, so my blog cannot be at that domain.
    Another Edit:
    If it isn’t possible to add a custom template, could someone explain how I download WordPress and put it in a folder at my sk8brder40.com domain? I tried once, but I don’t understand a bit of php or what to do.

    I went under administration and selected Blog and made a new blog. I have ftp access to my website, but my blog is seperate, I guess. The actual website I have with 1and1 is https://sk8brder40.com/, but they let you have a wordpress blog. I did that because I have ABSOLUTELY no idea how to upload wordpress to my site. Btw, I’m signed up for 1and1 beginner.

    EDIT
    Fabrian, btw, what is wrong with 1and1? Have you not heard of FTP? Of course you can view your files! 1and1 isn’t for n00bs who need their own file managers!
