In reply to: Changing background color for dummies! ;^)God alone knows what they were thinking of but in this case the CSS you want is not in the CSS at all. It is in header.php. Isn’t that cool. ?:(

In reply to: Changing background color for dummies! ;^)Start at the root of your install on your server. Its probably something like public_html or maybe www. Then go to the blog directory. But I do not think you are on the right lines. The bg in Kubrick is an image. Right click / View image.

In reply to: Changing background color for dummies! ;^)By default it is not *writeable* from the inline editor. If it were it would be a security breach. If you want to use the editor it is necessary to change the permissions of the file (chmod) temporarily. That can be done in your CPanel or via ftp.
If you have already edited your CSS (note it should have an ext of .css not .txt) it needs to be sent by ftp back to your web host.
In short get upto speed on ftp basics.

In reply to: Adding a blog to an existing siteYour host needs to meet the minimum requirements for hosting WP in particular it needs php and mysql. . That is not a biggie. Most hosts do and you can find them pretty cheaply.
The *Tiny* account at asmallorange for example is fine.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: First step installation probsJust to recap from Step #1.
WP requires to be installed on a web server. That means with a web host. Or locally if you insist to something like XAMPP. In either case prior to running the install routine you need to set up a mysql db and add a user to it with the necessary permissions. Then fill out config.php. Then using your browser (I guess that means Internet Explorer here) navigate to the install.php file url given above. Then do the necessary incantations etc and pray. 🙂Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Static Front Page BlogYou need to forget what goes on in static sites. WP only has one *page* that is index.php. It is dynamic. It can load a page of static content. Or your posts. But as a fix you could save index.php as home.php. Its magic.
I can finish 1 PSD template by the end of each week and all you would do is code them
Errr……… you seem to be under a fundamental misapprehension as to what web development involves.

In reply to: How do I move a sidebar from right to left?Ok. Brace yourself. Firing up web dev and using the convenient outline tool. You could usefully add a further container eg #main to include the content and the current lh sidebar.
Then float #content left & #sidebar (whatever) right.
Add a clearer div inside #main.When it blows up post again.

In reply to: Upgrade Process SucksOne of the WP devs – Mark Jaquith often releases a zip of the updated files only. I do not use the darn zips myself so I do not have a url. Google will know.

In reply to: Static Front Page BlogThe entries page as you call it will be the index.php. It should be there working as usual. Unless you did something odd with it.
