Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: New site Access to wordpressNot to be a wiseguy here but it sounds like you will need to learn HTML and PHP real fast. HTML to set up the page structure, PHP to talk to the database and maybe even a little javascript. Not to mention maybe creating a child theme.
Have a look at what I’m working on here
You’ll need something similar so he can pull the data out of the database and edit it.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Child theme not workingIf I’m not mistaken, the child theme css should override the parent theme css. Try adding a body tag to your child css and see what happens.

In reply to: How does WordPress work with existing domain/host?Does WP just function as a typical website builder that I can create the site and then upload via FTP to my host? I get the impression that’s not quite right.
No, WP is not a website “builder” however, WP is very easy to install and use. The real question is, do you want it to look the same as your old site? If the answer is yes then you will need to manually copy the template. If you are unfamiliar with doing that sort of thing you might want to get a web developer to do it for you.
If you want a new template there are many out there to choose from as well.
Simply install WordPress on your server and upload your finished template and activate it.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Trouble with theme imagesUpdate: I’ve temporarily created an empty wordpress folder with a path to wp-content/themes/my theme/images and it works ok for now.

In reply to: [Car Demon] Compatibility with recent WordPress versions ?Compatibility version # updated.
My demo site is running 3.8.1, I simply forgot to update the tag.Perhaps if you you elaborate on “the plugin doesn’t work great” I could spend some time and fix it.

In reply to: Filter Issue?I had my own function to clean the data prior to input to the database. One of them was htmlspecialchars() which was responsible for adding the characters (WP requires the data to be raw). I simply commented out the function and no more htmlspecialchars() are displayed in the “Description”.
Thank You!
Forum: Hacks
In reply to: Filter Issue?So, htmlspecialchars_decode() should do the trick?

In reply to: [Car Dealer] Can't get it workWhen you say you
“installed it to wordpress directory also in my webserver”How did you install it? Through the administrative backend of WordPress or did you ftp it to your site? Did you activate the plugin and the childtheme in the correct sequence?
If you follow my instructions for the plugin and the childtheme, your site should look exactly like the PAGES of my demo (without the images in the header). The Cimy Header Image Rotator will put the images in the header.
Please provide more detail.
