In reply to: Broken, partial installation, 404I can’t get past WordPress “Hello World” screen,
The “Hello world” screen you mention, that is your site!
Your site seems OK at http://pierdesign.ca … And redirects to http://www.pierdesign.ca … not unusual
It appears to me only your /wp-admin/ folder is missing or misplaced.
The folder structure, starting at the folder that contains wp-config.php and on down, should be the same as on bluehost
Here is a good reference regarding the typical file structure, not that it is older and the files are different but the folders should be the same today:

Good Luck

In reply to: Site changing URL structureBottom line you can’t have the same slug on more than one post.

In reply to: Site changing URL structureInstead of categories containing posts, have you tried parent pages containing child pages?

In reply to: comments on posts on dashboardHave you tried giving them their own user account with appropriate role ?
For what it worth you could try theme P2. It is intended to be a communication tool on the front end , just like you described for the dashboard. https://wordpress.org/themes/p2/
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: 2 installations of wordpressI have a multisite WP installation
Does the presence of multisite complicate the possibility to have a second WordPress within the same directory tree?
if i make this update a lot of problems do appear,
For what it’s worth, personally I would be inclined to test the new theme under a different domain, completely isolated from the first.

In reply to: Remove Featured Image – Konmi ThemeIf there is a theme option built in, that would be the first place to check
Another possibility would be to:
create a child theme and activate it,
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themescopy the file single.php from the parent theme to the child theme, and then
edit the child single.php file to comment the featured image code: on lines 22 and 58 there is code like this:
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>Both places, make it like this:
<?php // the_post_thumbnail(); ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Install WordPress on Suddenlink?You’re welcome,
Does suddenlink meet the WordPress server requirements?
WordPress needs more than just space on a host, namely PHP and MySQL …
Is there any provision to create a MySQL database ?

Too make it all real easy, you can get a WordPress site for free, already built, on http://WordPress.com

Didn’t you write that you added the code to functions.php ?
And your first screenshot has error message /wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/functions.php , right?

In reply to: WP development locally – Error establishing a database connectionYou are welcome,
Are you missing the DB_NAME definition from your wp-config.php ?
From wp-config-sample.php :
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** // /** The name of the database for WordPress */ define('DB_NAME', 'database_name_here'); /** MySQL database username */ define('DB_USER', 'username_here'); /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password_here'); /** MySQL hostname */ define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Database Update RequiredWhen a WordPress update doesn’t complete properly, often it can be repaired by performing a manual upgrade. Successfully to do so will require you follow the instructions precisely.
Majority of WordPress instructions pertain to linux hosts. So in your case you will need to read carefully for alternate windows host instructions within the reference documents. Good Luck.
