Uploading header (4 posts)

    I have the template "elegant grunge" and am attempting to upload a custom header. I have followed the instructions on wp forums on installing it through header.php or styles.css. In both cases, when I go to save the text changes, it gives me an error message saying "Cannot create the C:/Users/Smith/AppData/Local/Temp/style-2.css file. Make sure the path and filename are correct."

    Any suggestions? Or am I going about this all wrong. I have uploaded my header image to the "elegant grunge" theme folder as well.

    Looks like you're trying to reference/save a file on your local hard drive instead of on your web server.

    How do I change that? It automatically goes to that directory

    Download a copy of your theme files. Make the necessary changes to header.php and style.css on your local copy and then upload the amended files to your wp-content/themes directory.
