OK Solved the problem. Managed to move the site to a new directory, copied wp-config.php and got in.

Gotsome images to copy over but otherwise it works.

OK durrrrrrr put directory in wrong place!

I cannot find this thread in the forum. Has it got lost?
EDITED note:
It seemed to have become visible again after this post. It looks as though it was moved from Installation forum to this one and disappeared into the ether. Please read back – Any help much appreciated.
Thanks Daviod

Thank you guys for helping so quickly.

Any chance of some more guidance?

What I have done so far does not produce any results – but hopefully it is a start along the way to understanding how to use chuld theming.

I have created the following directory:
wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/twentyeleven-child/

in which I have placed a style.css file:
__________________________________________________________________
File contents:
/*
Theme Name: Twenty Eleven Child
Author: David Southwell ARPS AFIAP
Author URI: https://www.seniorearners.org/
Description: Child theme for Twenty Eleven for https://www.seniorearners.org
Template: twentyeleven
Version: 0.1.0
*/

@import url(“../style.css”);

#site-title a {
color: #009900;
}
__________________________________________________________________
On the dashboard appearance>themes there is no sign of the child theme.

Questions:
1. The base theme is located as follows
wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/style.css
and as the style.css for my child is in
wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/twentyeleven-child/
I have shown the import url as (“../style.css”)
Is that correct?

2. I have tried switching in and out of the twentyeleven theme. But the child theme does not appear for selection.
Do I have to do something else to get it recognised?
Note all files are owned www:www and are -rw-r–r–

Incidentally I am using version 3.4.1 on a freebsd 8.2 amd64 system

Thanks in advance

No I did not. I just added 3 blog entries and the 2013 calendar image as a Header Image.

What I want to do is keep navigation right at the top and change the header image frequently. Sometimes it will be large (like it is now) and sometimes quite small. That would mean the location of the menus would be changing and shifted up and down the page – that would not be good for readers.

I would also like to intr0duce a comment line immediately below the header image where the menus are currently located.

In the long term I would like user preferences so that users can turn on/off the header image (but not the comment line!).

Thanks for asking
David
