 * Hello!
    I have a WordPress site under construction. I had a custom theme designed
   for the site and it is running just fine on my live site at [http://www.florida-angler.com](http://www.florida-angler.com)(
   currently the site is cloaked under WordPress Maintenance Mode). However, just
   like everyone else, I would like to customize my theme myself as I move forward.
   So, I decide to install WAMP server and do my test work locally (laptop running
   Windows 7). Everything went just great. I used Filezilla to FTP my entire site
   from my live server (godaddy.com) to my localhost. However, when I go to the 
   WordPress dashboard on my “local” server my theme is nowhere to be found. I searched
   these forums and Google and found others were having similar issues but a solution
   is nowhere to be found. Do any of you folks have any suggestions? Thanks in advance
   for any replies!! (please keep in mind I’ve checked all file permissions on my
   local server, and I’ve re-installed everything several times)
