How do I find the style.css of twentyeleven-child so I can work on it??
The code you posted above is your twentyeleven-child style.css file. You would use this file to add new styles or possibly override some of the twentyeleven styles.

In reply to: Header ErrorsHave you tried disabling all plugins? If that fixes the problem, add them back one by one till it breaks.

In reply to: How to install child themeYou don’t HAVE to zip the file and upload it. In twentyeleven-child folder your css should have a template line in the information header.
/* Theme Name: Twenty Eleven Child Theme URI: http: //example.com/ Description: Child theme for the Twenty Eleven theme Author: Your name here Author URI: http: //example.com/about/ Template: twentyeleven Version: 0.1.0 */The template line is the name of your parent theme. As long as this is residing in wp-content/themes, you have your child theme. The upload like any other theme thing would be if youre planning to package the theme. You can FTP to your web server, or simply drag and drop on your pc. All the same.

In reply to: Renamed CSS now white screenWow… that was scary. I ended up editing the database to reset the template, stylesheet, and theme to default. That initially didnt work even while disabling all plugins. I eventually renamed the plugins folder and created a new folder called plugins. I was then able to access the backend and set the theme. Then i deleted the empty plugins folder, and renamed the real plugins folder back to plugins. sheessh…

In reply to: Can someone experienced show me the ropes?Hello Sour! Youll have to login to you admin page which should be something like http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin. Your friend that set up your wordpress should have given you a user name and password to use. Once you login youll see your dashboard. From here you can add posts and pages. To change your theme youll need to find one that you like on the internet(scroll to the top of this page and click extend… youll find themes there.) Then upload it to your server. Once it has been uploaded you will login to your dashboard and click design. You should see your theme in there ready to be activated.
