In reply to: Have an Index.html in same root of my WordPress blog (public_html)Currenty is your site up and running with the use of index.php? If so you should be able to create a separate index.html or default.html page and put it in your root, on that page have a button or link to take users to your sites index.php
The order of files
1: default.html
2: index.html
3: index.phpIf you have all three of those in your root, default will be read first when a url is typed, index.php is last on this list.
To answer your last question, index.php is how your WP site should be accessed.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Site RedesignWhat are you changing? If it’s just the theme and the looks of the site and you are using a child-theme, all you need to do is install the new theme and copy your child theme from your development site to your main site.

In reply to: Where is the css for the title text for a static page defined.I get a lot of people telling me to use tools like Firebug, Chrome, and I’ve even tried F12 Tools in I.E. and the nearest thing I’ve been able to find is “entry-title” and any kind of search turns up no such thing exist.
Using Firebug you find the selector you want to change, in your case “entry-title” then you can use a child theme or custom css to customize it to what you want. Check out the following:
The best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

In reply to: alignment problemsFirst of all this is a css issue. Don’t edit your core WP or Theme files. You can try the following code in your custom CSS or create at child theme. Don’t put this in a .php file.

In reply to: Sticky double header? (need to add extra navigation bar)Here’s a link to the Customizr Theme’s snippet for replacing the 3 bar menu button with the word MENU. The selectors will be different for your theme, but it will give you an idea of how you could do it with your theme. Hope this helps.

In reply to: Cloning a WP siteYour on hostgator so you should have cpanel hosting. There is probably a cloning tool in your cpanel that will do exactly what you want, contact hostgator support and go that route, a couple of clicks and your done. Remember if you are cloning to just have a development site, once that site is cloned, you may want to go to your DEV-SITE dashboard > SETTINGS > READING > Click on DISABLE SEARCH ENGINES to keep google out.

In reply to: Styles are gone??OK you have a free WooTheme “Wootique” which doesn’t offer any support other than the documentation here > http://www.woothemes.com/products/wootique/
Question: Is the custom css you are using a plugin? If so is it active?
If not:I am not familiar with their themes, but you have a couple options.
1: Read the documentation on their site and see if it provides an answer.2: Create a Child Theme and use that for your special customizations.
