Sure, this will be easier than you think. Every file you upload to your WordPress media library automatically has its own url.

–log in to your WordPress dashboard
–upload the pdf to your media library
–once it has been uploaded, click ‘edit’ which will bring you to a screen that has a field called ‘File URL’
–copy the url of the file that’s given

It will look something like this: http://www.yoursite.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/file.pdf

You can use that url by sending it out as a straight web address, and that way people can download or access it without seeing any theme files.

I wasn’t clear: is your menu custom coded into the header.php file? Or are you using the Appearance > Menus screen to create the link?

If it’s the former, you should code it into the header.php file as <?php bloginfo('url'); ?>
That will go to the home page no matter where in the file structure you are, or what your url is set to.

If you’re using the Appearance > Menus screen to create your custom link menus, then you should just use the automatic ‘home’ it provides, or the root url for your home page (http://www.yoursite.com) as your link.

Where did you copy this code from? It’s not your header.php file code.

If you’re an admin, you will be able to see a tab called ‘Users’ in your Dashboard menu (between Plugins and Tools). Clicking this will give a list of Users and their roles. If you can’t see ‘Editor’ in the Appearance menu, however, it’s less likely that your user permissions are set to Administrator.

Are you able to get ftp login information from someone?

It’s in your header.php file. Look for the part of the file that deals with <title> and </title>, you will want to put your text between those two tags.

This article might help you understand the role of the header.php file and the way your theme is set up.

Sure, no problem. Bullets are not body text, they’re lists. That means they’re created using the <ol>, <ul>, and <li> tags, and you need to edit the corresponding properties in css. Here’s some information on that! CSS Lists

The <p> tag should do it, or the following, if you don’t want the text size to be applied outside of posts:

.entry p {
    margin: 5px 0 15px;
}

Right now, the font-size is set in the .body property as 0.9em, but you could do this to enlarge it just in the blog posts:

.entry p {
    margin: 5px 0 15px;
    font-size: 1.0em;
}

Were you only looking to change the body font size, or did you need to change header sizes as well?

Also, something to think about: How are you changing your css? To protect your changes from being overwritten by future updates, I strongly recommend that you create a child theme or use a custom css editor plugin.

I tried it, too. I even updated my local test install to 3.6 to be compatible, but I had the same results as you. There’s definitely something wrong with the plugin file. It’s up to the plugin developer now! Hopefully, they’ll catch this thread.

Ahh, that’s a different case. I was downloading it from your link to my desktop.

Do you have access to your /plugins/ folder by ftp? If so, you can bypass your admin install problem by doing the same:

a) download the plugin zip file to your desktop
b) unzip it
c) upload the whole folder to your /wp-content/plugins folder on your server using ftp.
d) log in to your WordPress admin dashboard, go to Plugins, find the plugin (it should show up once in your Plugins area once its files are in the /plugins/ folder on your server)
e) activate the plugin from the Admin Dashboard > Plugins

That being said, I would also test to see if you can install any other plugins from the Admin, or if the problem rests solely with that plugin. If you can’t install ANY plugins from the admin dashboard, you may be seeing a symptom of a problem with your own files. Check it out and let us know!
