The .php files are the “components” that build the blog. They tell each piece what to do, how to act and look. The WP- folders divide your blog into logical categories with different functions. If I remember correctly, the Default theme is active. All you have to do is click on a theme and it becomes the active theme. Click on the “View” button above the theme and it will show you what your blog looks like. On the home dash board or in the Design category of your dash board, you’ll find a place to click to search for new themes. There are tons to choose from! You just need to upload a theme into your wp-content, themes folder to try it out. Once it’s in there, you’ll see it as an option in your Design section of the dash board. Click it, and it’s active. You can view it to see what you think. I know WordPress suggests the book “WordPress for Dummies” and it really is helpful.
go to your wordpress files in your server admin panel. right click on the “content” file. go to “permissions” and change the number there to 777. that will allow you to upload.
