In reply to: What next?Can you steer me to the right knowledge base page for how to properly format the css? I’m sorry. It may seem obvious to you, but it’s not obvious to me where to find everything. There’s no search button and I can read for a couple of hours w/o finding what I need so I would appreciate that.

In reply to: What next?Just went there. I changed the index file to php. Do I need the other php files and the includes to make it work? Still getting Stylesheet is missing. I just wanted to upload files and work from there.

In reply to: Problem with importing a template/themeI added “template: default” per http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development to see what would happen and it uploaded without errors. Only problem was that, of course, the default files overwrote the header, etc.. Realized that all WP templates need PHP so I remembered a site that had this same template with PHP files, found it and uploaded it and now it’s working perfectly. By God, I think I’m getting it.
Thanks for the help,

In reply to: Problem with importing a template/themeAnd the advice worked to correct the css error. Now, it’s a template error.

In reply to: Problem with importing a template/themeGees, Mercime,
First of all, I don’t know what “port the design to WP-ready format” means. If I did, I may be able to try it. And I did Google “free WordPress themes” and freecsstemplates.org is one of the sites that came up. Maybe you can explain why they don’t work since I found it as a “free WP theme”. And, I am looking for alternate themes b/c I don’t like the themes in the WP Themes area. I only see twenty something themes. If there are others, I can’t find them and have no clue what to click to get them other than what’s on the right-hand side.
And secondly, you will see that I was following chaoskaizer’s advice. Are you saying that his/her feedback is incorrect? No need to get upset when I was following another’s advice about making the template work.

In reply to: Problem with importing a template/themeI changed the style sheet to “style.css” (I thought that may have been part of the reason) and reflected change on index. I also added your suggested info above to the uppermost part of the css understanding that mywebsite.com and myblog.com meant that I inserted my website and blog URLs, yes? So, it looks like:
/*

/*
Theme Name: Theme-Name
Theme URI: http://b-animalwise.com
Description: A default theme

*/I am now getting this error message:

In reply to: How do I login after installing successfully?Thank you both. After I posted, I figured out how to login. I had to go to http://www.mysite.com/wordpress. Then, there’s a “login” link on bottom right. Sometimes, it just helps to spell it out :0).
Regarding themes, are there only 25 of them on http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/? It says: 25 themes, 33,035 downloads, and counting”. Am I missing something? If so, where do I find them all?
You say PHP won’t be a problem but if I want to customize it, it will be yes?
Also, we can upload free templates from somewhere else right?
