How do I change Wordpress.com theme without paying?

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

I have tried connecting word press.com in filezilla but it won’t connect. I think it’s because they have this new CSS upgrader and you need to pay for it. Is there any other way I could change my theme without having to pay for it?
that’s still paying.

You don’t connect to WordPress with FTP. You connect to your server that has it provided your hosting account allows use of FTP. Most free accounts do not allow FTP use.

How do I make a new wordpress blog on my server?

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

I had somebody make the first blog, but now I want to make a new blog from scratch. Do I make a new database? And install wordpress again? I hope I’m being clear. Thanks!

Exactly. Create a new database, install another copy of wordpress – having the name of the new database – and it should work just like the old one did.

How do you work a WordPress custom theme?

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Okay I need major help. I used to have various blogs on various sites and today I have signed up and payed for my own domain, the only trouble is that I can’t work the template. I downloaded a template directly from wordpress and tried to edit the CSS. I know how to put the code and change HTML but it still doesn’t show the full theme and ruins the one I had picked before even when I start from scratch. Am I editing the wrong thing? Please help!!

It is difficult to answer your question without knowing exactly what changes you made to which files.

To recover, you may upload a fresh copy of the theme, then from within the Dashboard under Design > Theme Editor make a small change to the theme you have selected, then save it and examine the result by viewing your blog. Keep making small changes until you get the effect you want. If things blow up, just redo the last change.

Being off one character can cause problems, so be patient and methodical.

Good luck!

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

I’ve created a mock layout in photoshop of how I want the layout to my wordpress site (it’s for a DJ).

How can I assure that this theme will work in the actual blog? How do I install it and will it restrict any plug-ins?
