Thank you, Jan. I greatly appreciate the response. I will work on this over the next couple days. My host had fixed it for me initially so all I know is that it was working fine for a while afterwards and then started up again (first time a few months went by, second time a few weeks). This last time the parse error showed up immediately after he stated he had removed the malware, although I was able to access the CPanel again, which I could not before he intervened. Then he supposedly reinstalled WordPress for me, although I don’t really know what all was actually done, and the parse error still showed up. He told me that meant I had some files damaged. I have since read that some of this code can stay in there to reinfect. The weird thing is that when this started (the last time) I had received an email from Google saying my site had an issue, and a couple days later they wrote me back saying my site was reactivated on AdWords as there was no longer malware showing up (even though the site is not working). I wrote them back but have not received a response so far. This is what made it more confusing.

Here are lines 2920-2956. Let me know if anything else is needed.

Thank you so much, I’ll check. Anyone on the other issue? Having multiple pages doesn’t really work if none of the pages show any of the others. I can’t have my site showing just the home page- please help.

Well, I’ve managed to make a static front page- didn’t figure out how to get rid of the post ‘window’ so that my text could just be placed where I want it over my background, but I changed colors so at least everything has a uniform look for now (although it’s not as I will want it in the end).

But I am still struggling with the changing of the font size. I do not understand why someone would make a customizable theme that allows you to change all the colors, move everything around, etc. with a couple clicks, yet make it where you have to read code in order to find the right place to change a font size. With my previous theme I thought I had possibly narrowed down the line where I should try to change it, but then switched themes and now on this one I don’t even see where to change the CSS- I see the html page which has no font size info, but not the page that has the full code (Suffusion theme). Maybe my eyes are starting to fail me or I’m missing something I haven’t clicked again while I’m clicking everything ten times.

Also, what if I need several static/non-blog pages?

Thank you so much. I will definitely have to work on all of that.

Another question- I had added a background to one theme I had activated- then I switched to a different theme and of course it was blank (I forgot to check but I’d assume my background image is in the folder if I want to add it) but when I switched back to first theme the background was still there. So I am just trying to figure out, what all automatically transfers into new themes when you switch and what does not? I understand the background maybe not being there as it might be assumed if you are switching themes you might want the new color scheme that comes with it, but what about any other customizations you’ve done? And when you do switch back to a previously-used theme, does it always in fact go to the version you created as it appeared to have done? Meaning, if I try out a new theme and decide I don’t like it and re-select any ones I have previously customized, all my work is saved as-is in that theme?

Oh, my apologies- I already realized I was wrong. Just that the new install had the identical initial page that I had seen weeks ago when I first did my page at WP- I see now that the two are different. so now I just need to figure out how to make it not be a blog-type setup.

Excellent point. I’ve definitely read some great reviews which is why I started considering it even though I had already begun working with the other program. I’m sure with either it’s still going to take me some time with the learning curve but I’m willing to spend the time if I know I can get good results. Just wanted to make sure that once you figure out the basics it’s fairly easy and not constantly causing more work.

Thanks for the info, I am going to give it a try. :o)
