 * Christine thanks alot for your response!
 * Ive seen a paid theme, that only works properly if the corresponding plugin is
   installed. What can you tell me about those kind of themes/plugins? Good/bad?
 * Also, there are like hundreds and hundreds of plugins. How can i find/know the
   ones that are the best?
 * Also, it seems that most of the times the ones that are downloaded the most and
   rated highr are the ones with the best/meta names, is that a correct observation?

 * So After i made my posts, i added tags and also chose categroies to put them 
   under. Yet when i search for those tags or categories it wont find anything.
 * Example:
 * _[ Moderator Note: Please post code or markup snippets between backticks or use
   the code button. Even this. ]_
 *     ```
       <h>This is my post</h>
       <p>Blablablablabla</p>
       ```
   
 * then i add tags like: XXX
    and put unter the category: YYY Then submit my post.
 * Now, when i search for either XXX or YYY the search finds nothing.

 * I solved the problem!
 * Thank you Andrew Nevins for your time and effort. I tried again on another random
   theme, doing it like described on that guide, and my modifications came through.

 * yes it is, and i also did it like the first advice you gave me: wp-content/themes/
   thentyeleven/twentyelevenchild and made a file in there.
 * Does it have to do with the code not working, because i already used some modifications
   on it (header,footer and blogposts) and the theme isnt like the standard?
 * Also, about the location of the directory, [this](http://http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes/)
   guide has the childtheme directory not in the mother directory rather next to
   it.

 * Do i have to make the yourTheme diroctory myself, and in it make a twentyelevenchild
   directory? Because the directory yourTheme isnt in the directory themes.

 * Thanks for the fast replies! Didn’t work though.
 * Here’s a more detailed description of what i did.
 * In DirectAdmin: installed WordPress via Installathron.
    Used the theme Twenty
   Eleven on my website. Went to public-html/wp-content/themes, and made a directory
   called twentyelevenchild.
 * Then made a file named style.css with the following code in it:
 * >  /*
   >  Theme Name: Twentyeleven Child Description: Child theme for the twentyeleven
   > theme Author: Your name here Template: twentyeleven */
   > [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/) url(“../twentyeleven/
   > style.css”);
   > #site-title a {
   >  color: #009900; }
 * And the changes don’t apply…

 * In DirectAdmin, i went to Files then:
 * public_html, wp-content, **themes**.
 * That’s where all my themes were, which i made a new directory called elventwelvechild.
   And in that directory i made a file with the codes and named it style.css.
 * Pretty much like the walkthough imo, so where do i make the mistake?

 * Thanks for the response,
 * You gave me the answer i expected, but not the answers i was hoping to hear. 
   It seems i have a long way to go, but im still very excited to start my new journey.
 * Maybe after 3 months, if i still haven’t learnt as much as i wanted to, ill just
   assign a ‘real’ webdeveloper/ programmer to the project.
 * Any idea how much it will cost me on average??
 * Like $XXX?, $1XXX?, $2XXX?,…,$XXXXX?, $XXXXXXXXXXXX?
 * Also, is messing around with Childtemplates a good place to start? Better yet,
   what’s the best thing to do first( besides the beforehand mentioned)
