• After many hours of trying to resolve this problem I will post my findings here in hopes of finally getting through this. The problem is themes no showing up in presentation tab. I’ve read all the posts on this problem, most common advice is check layout of dir. & files. I went through that, everything seems ok, though I am no expert. I got my hands on a tool to help examine problems. Here is what I see. I have version 2.3.0 here is my address https://me2you.freehostplace.com/WP/ when I am in my admin
    on presentation tab I get this little flag, CSS Error:unknown property ‘filter’. Declaration dropped. So I ran a scan to validate css, I will paste the errors in hopes someone might be able to make sense of it.

    674 #login Property _width doesn’t exist : 390px
    680 #login form Property _width doesn’t exist : 325px
    681 #login form Property _margin doesn’t exist : 0 auto
    718 #login #send Property _width doesn’t exist : 325px
    719 #login #send Property _margin doesn’t exist : 0 auto 15px
    839 #template, #template div, #editcat, #addcat Property zoom doesn’t exist : 1
    1239 .dbx-clone Property opacity doesn’t exist : 0.8
    1240 .dbx-clone Property -moz-opacity doesn’t exist : 0.8
    1241 .dbx-clone Property -khtml-opacity doesn’t exist : 0.8
    1242 .dbx-clone Parse Error – opacity=80)
    That is it, 10 errors. Needless to say, this is all greek to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This should be a good challenge for someone that has the skills.
    thank you

  • I see similar or identical errors when I submit the a site CSS to w3.org’s CSS validator.

    Note that these errors come with the wp-admin style, not from the theme’s style. I also got 73 warnings (mostly duplicate colors) for the wp-admin style. Fortunately, I’m working with a test site, before going live, a I’m wary of going live with something that doesn’t validate. However, given that they’re on the admin side (unless I’m misreading the report), I’m figuring that they’ll be problems for me, not for the general visitor.
