 * Sorry for the delayed reply… but it all seems to be working fine except your 
   header image which is still calling for ZachKidd.com instead of me.zachkidd.com
 * Other than that the links work great.
 * Yeah Database transfer is something else. Quite easy once you get the hang of
   it though!

 * No problem 🙂
 * Other than the URLs, it should be a straight forward migration. Thankfully WordPress
   makes it very easy for us.

 * There are built-in CSS classes for your current rendered page as well as the 
   parent of your current rendered page.
 * Take a look at:
    [https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu#Current-Page_Parent_Menu_Items](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu#Current-Page_Parent_Menu_Items)
 * You could set it up like this:
 *     ```
       .current-menu-item {
           color: green
       }
       .current-menu-parent {
           color: green
       }
       .current-menu-parent.current-menu-item {
           color: white;
           font-weight: bold
       }
       ```
   
 * When your current page is a child of a menu item, it will be styled differently.

 * When migrating to a different server and / or (sub-)domain there are a few extra
   steps needed to make sure everything shows up.
 * Most of your page and post URLs are stored inside the database. This means that
   when you move your WordPress installation, it will still refer to the old URLs.
   
   So let’s say you have a contact page. The URL would probably be: yourdomain.com/
   contact.
 * When you move your WordPress installation to a different domain, in your case
   subdomain.yourdomain.com, your installation will still look for: yourdomain.com/
   contact instead of subdomain.yourdomain.com/contact.
 * To solve this I’ll refer you to the following article in the Codex:
 * [https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Changing_Your_Domain_Name_and_URLs](https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Changing_Your_Domain_Name_and_URLs)
 * You can either refresh the URLs yourself or use one of the three options listed
   there 🙂 (I recommend using one of the three options)

 * Hi 🙂
 * There is an option in your toolbar that enables the sub-toolbar.
 * [http://snag.gy/lTEdH.jpg](http://snag.gy/lTEdH.jpg)
 * Click that and you’ll get extra options.

 * When migrating, or in your case cloning a database, to a different server and/
   or domain there are a few extra steps needed to make sure everything shows up.
 * Most of your page and post URLs are stored inside the database, so when you copy
   over the database from your client’s site you’ll get his URLs. To solve this 
   I’ll refer you to the following article in the Codex:
 * [https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Changing_Your_Domain_Name_and_URLs](https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Changing_Your_Domain_Name_and_URLs)
 * You can either refresh them yourself or use one of the three options listed there
   🙂
