    Greetings, I'm new to wp and will deeply appreciate your help and support. I have a question. I have installed different templates but realize to change and modify the templates you need to edit it by using css. I know this maybe a silly question but...

    Can I edit or does wp have any templates that you can edit without knowing css? But still edit the header, ad your company logo, change images, etc...

    I have build several sites with citymax using site builder, so you "see" as you go/edit. But I'm clueless at css. I now wanted to create a site/blog using wp, however I got discouraged every time I find a template I like because when I click on editor, it only display css.

    It is possible to edit a template not knowing css?

    Thank you in advance for yout time, understanding and patience with me.

    In short, no...

    You can't use a WYSIWYG editor for wordpress themes because much of the html is generated on the fly when you visit the page. Also, wordpress themes are based on multiple template files that are pieced together when a page is visited.

    CSS is not difficult and it is probably worth getting a basic knowledge.

    Try sites like w3schools that give a good introduction to html and css
