 * PS I just wanted to add that my alternative two-stage migration plan worked.
 * I moved the migration files by “hand” from the web server, which I created by
   running Migration Assistant after configuring it to store them to the server 
   itself (in other words, configuring the ftp destination settings so they are 
   no longer to “localhost”), but I still entered my local url in the “new” url 
   slot.
 * I then copied the files using Cyberduck to my local machine, and then ran the
   final phase of the restore locally, and it worked perfectly.
 * I think there is something broken in Migration Assistant in its ftp password 
   verification on web to local access to a Mac running MAMP….

 * Hopefully needless to say, I am primarily a designer, and coding I do on a “need
   to” basis.
 * The “advanced settings” input field on the images in WordPress seems to be an
   unused access point for powerful and handy tweaks, and fading an image on mouse
   over and placing an image over another in the same WordPress display field seems
   to be something it could do.
 * Perhaps you could add some code to the original image identifying it: giving 
   it a variable, then use that variable in the code added to the other “faded to”
   images advanced input field.
 * I have been able to find precious little documentation of this sort of thing 
   in WordPress.
 * The reason why it appeals to me is that it is necessarily very asset specific,
   and allows you avoid thinking about linkages, and paths in code references, and
   the whole cascading potential nightmare if you mess with the stylesheets themselves.

 * That **is** a nice example. I’m using Dreamweaver CC to edit WordPress themes
   and as a sort of interactive CSS primer, and I thus do have access to the code
   for fading an image, and have got it working fine on websites I have made using
   the Dreamweaver responsive template.
 * Understanding the CSS is not so much the problem, but incorporating it into WordPress
   in a consistent way is the challenge I face.
 * I figure that if I can get myself a workflow with some code to copy and paste
   into the WordPress advanced settings on the second “faded to” image, I will have
   a mouseover fading image solution that will work anywhere in WordPress with any
   theme, which will be something handy to have.

 * Yes, and I would imagine the code in the CSS on the advanced settings would somehow
   make the second image overly the first. I would imagine all the custom CSS styling/
   
   coding would take place in that second image….

 * Hi there, has one-one else got a suggestion?
 * This should not be such a hard problem should it?
 * Put simply, I want to add a custom bullet point to my blog entry titles, and 
   make it “outdented” so the bullet hangs in space to the left of the Blog title,
   and the title itself should still line up with the rest of the blog text….
 * I’m using a modified version of the basic “Twenty Ten” theme…

 * Thanks for your quick reply, but that is a simple background on editing a CSS,
   WordPress or no WordPress.
 * My question, I think anyway, is much more specific to wordpress, and maybe even
   specific to the them I am using, and that is how to get the title of my blogs
   to appear as a list item, and thus recognize the custom css I had already added
   for list items (as it actually also explains to do in the document you referred
   me to.)
 * If I wanted the custom bullet to appear in the body of the text, it would be 
   a simple matter to use the WordPress admin interface to switch to html mode, 
   and add the tags telling WordPress that the bullet was in a list, but how do 
   I do that for a blog title?
 * When I enter “Edit Post” on my admin console, I can change the text only of the
   title, whereas I can actually change the html of the body of the post.
 * How do I add a list html marker to the post TITLE, as I think that is what I 
   need to do? Simply adding a bullet point to the title creates a bullet point 
   using the font selected for the title, and does not recognize the custom list
   code substituting the graphic for it…
