Here it goes
1. Put the templates file in a template directory with your choice of name. Select the directory and upload it into /wp-content/themes/
directory.
You can select multiple files from the left side of Filezilla by holding down the CTRL key and clicking on each file.
goto http://YOURBLOGURL.com/wp-admin/
A login prompt will be shown. Use your WordPress username and password to login. Then to create a new post there will be a new post button on top right. Every navigation menu is on he right sidebar on wp-content
This is pretty straight forward thing to do.
Here is the WP documentation if you want to read more.
My problem is that the blog is already up, and I can’t take it down to test the new template. I was told by my hosting company to create a separate page on which to test it, and then to redirect when I’m ready. The page is now at MYSITE.com/Wordpress. If I change the theme, it won’t alter the main blog, will it?
Also, I seem to have uploaded the template successfully (thank you)- now how do I find it? It isn’t listed under available themes.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Is this a custom template file or an entire theme? If it’s the former, it won’t show up in Available Themes. It will be listed in the Template dropdown in Add/Edit Page.
If it’s an entire theme and it’s not showing up in Available Themes, you either haven’t uploaded it correctly or the theme is incomplete.
