PHP file question

  • Hi,

    I’m a complete novice with WordPress (though very experienced with Moveable Type) and trying to help a friend out with his site. I’ve logged into his dashboard but can’t locate the php files for editing. Do I need to FTP into the server to get those or can they be accessed through the dashboard?

    Thanks very much for your help.

  • They can be accessed through the Dashboard, but if you want to alter the PHP files in a theme, you really should create a child theme. This is essential if you are using one of the default themes (2011, 2010) as your basis.

    Dashboard –> Appearance –> Editor
