 * Hello, this is my first post here.
 * I have designed a weblayout for a friend and would like to use wp as a cms so
   I can hand the site over to him wnace it is set up. I have fairly good understanding
   of html and css but struggle with php.
 * I would like to know if I am on the right track.
 * So far
 * – I uploaded my website files into the Theme folder.
    – Included a style sheet
   header (Was not sure about ‘Theme URI:’ I put url/wp-content/themes/Jacob, as
   that is where I put the css file?) – selected the new theme in admin (After a
   few attempts that is.)
 * Next
 * – Make the theme dynamic/compatible with wp.
    – Via admain create top nav and
   side columns links. Add text content via admin to the new pages.
 * I am currently looking at wp widgets and sidebar markup
 * The [URL ](http://www.lovefootballgambling.com/)
 * Thanks

 * Would the next step be to copy the directory structure of say the default wp 
   theme, eg. have footer.php header.php image.php etc?
