   switched to Firebug, and it works like a dream, thanks esmi 🙂

 * hmmm, that’s curious, .entry-title, is already in my child theme’s CSS, yet the
   formatting is only reflecting on the .entry-title a and not on the .entry-title..
 * .entry-title, .entry-title a {
    color: #CC3300; text-decoration: none; }

 * Ok, thanks, yes I’m aware it’s not a link 🙂 Any ideas on how I can edit the 
   title on the single post page to have the same colour, font size, and font type
   as the main page posts?

 * yep, I’ve done that!
 * This is the code in the index.php file;
 * <?php
    /** * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn’t do anything,
   but loads * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.**
   [@package](https://wordpress.org/support/users/package/) WordPress */

 * Sorry, didn’t mean to bump. Nope, I’m defo doing something wrong, amending the
   code to what you stated still doesn’t do the trick.
 * Can I confirm which option I should be following? I have a root folder called
   argusgazette.com in my host’s control panel. This contains my WordPress folder.
 * I’m trying to amend the URL from argusgazette.com/wordpress to remove ‘wordpress’.
 * Have I chosen the correct option in following the instructions on ‘When your 
   Domain Name or URLs Change’?
 * Maybe it would be less tricky to uninstall WordPress and begin again, this time
   using the correct URL of argusgazette.com. Would that be possible?

 * Ok, I’ll hold my hands up, I’m slightly lost.
 * My intention is to change my website address from argusgazette.com/wordpress 
   to argusgazette.com.
 * Following the instructions on the Giving WordPress Its Own Directory page,
 * This is what I’ve done;
 * In the box for Site address (URL): changed the address to the root directory’s
   URL. : [http://argusgazette.com](http://argusgazette.com)
 * In this root directory I have a folder called WordPress which was created when
   I downloaded WordPress.
 * Created a .htaccess file, added the code from the Using “Pretty” permalinks page
   and copied it into my argusgazette.com root directory;
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * Copied index.php and from the WordPress root directory(not from the actual WordPress
   twenty eleven theme folder) into the root directory called argusgazette.com.
 * Next I opened my root directory’s index.php file & Changed the line that says:
   
   require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’); to require(‘./argusgazette.com/wp-blog-header.
   php’);
 * When I try and got to argusgazette.com it returns the below
 * Warning: require(./argusgazette.com/wp-blog-header.php) [function.require]: failed
   to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/argusgazette.com/index.
   php on line 17
 * Please excuse my ignorance! Some guidance would be super 🙂
 * _[[No bumping](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#No_Bumping), thank you.]_

 * Wow, thanks a lot WPyogi!
 * What do you mean by _I also just noticed that you have the header image outside
   the hgroup tags?_
 * I added the header in Appearance – Header – Custom Header. Is there something
   I should amend?
 * And re the border, how would I get it to begin at the Home button and end at 
   the end of the search box?
 * And lastly, I wanted my whole page to be white, how can I change the grey parts
   on either side of the main section to white?
 * That’s everything!

 * Your laughter = me sweating to fix things! 😉
 * The shadow above the header remains?
 * And also curious if there is a method of increasing _only _the header(including
   the menu bar) width, without increasing the content width?
 * The general menu bar look I’m going for is similar to this [http://www.argusgazette.com/](http://www.argusgazette.com/),
   not sure if we can add a 2em bottom border to the menu bar?
 * I do appreciate your help guys 🙂

 * hmmm, I’ve actioned the changes, yet my site doesn’t seem to be reflecting them.
   I’ve also noticed my entry-title color, even though I’ve changed it to #CC3300
   has reverted to #CC3300.
 * Maybe the issue is with my child theme in some way?
