You seem to have urls that are still pointing to localhost
.
so do i have to change them to be pointing somewhere else like the domain name.
Yes. You shouldn’t have any hard-coded urls in a theme. You should be using WP functions like bloginfo('url')
etc.
would it be easier if i start the website over or just find all the problem points and change them??
What do you have entered for the site urls within Settings -> General?
I have http://localhost entered in both.
Should i change it to my domain name?
Which one should I use?? Or should they all work.
Use the functions.php option if you can.
Should I edit the functions.php using the editor for the theme??
Okay it works but now when I go into wp-admin and try to click on widgets or plugins it says failed to connect. What should i do now or does that mean I messed up.
What url is it trying to connect to? Did you remove those lines from functions.php as soon as the site started working again??
Yes, i removed the lines. I am trying to connect to fathomcraft.dyndns.org. Though I haven’t restart my wamp server that is running. Should I try that.
What url is it trying to connect to?
