  • I have tried as you recommended but the theme didn't show up with an error message "The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template. Stylesheet is missing.."

    What does it mean and how to fix it?

  • It was a very nice tutorial, unfortunately when I tried it, it simply didn't work. I downloaded the new theme, unzippped and dragged the file to the wp-content folder into the themes folder, everything appeared to upload well, but it does " Not show up under themes in the admin area under themes? I tried refreshing even shutting everything down and it still doesn't show up? i realize this tutorial was done in 2009, and its now 2011 but I've been searching for over a week to correct this problem

  • could you tell me how to find the host name? I have a wordpress website and can't seem to find the answer anywhere

  • You missed one simple step...how to find or acess the folder that has the blog. How can we access our blog folder using ftp..???
