I’ve created a Page with a gallery using the nextgen plugin, but though I’ve hit publish and the images are showing on the ‘visual’ and ‘text’ views on the admin site, when I go and look at the main website all I get is an error message that says ‘There are currently no posts’. I’ve tried uploading the gallery using both nextgen and the standard ‘gallery’ section on WordPress, but the same error is happening. So I’m thinking it’s something that I’m doing wrong, but I can’t work out what that would be. Is there anyone out there who can help?

The error page is showing up here – https://www.bc55.co.uk/gallery/

Also, once it’s working, can someone tell me how to add the ‘gallery’ link to the header navigation bar on the site which is currently showing the ‘Home’, ‘About’, ‘Services’ and ‘Contact’ tags?

Any help would be gratefully received! Thanks in advance, I hope!

After you download Thesis, it will unpack a folder named Thesis_18 (or whatever the latest version is that you bought).

Open it. (Leave the zipped file alone.)

Look for the file labeled Content-Sample.

Change its name from “Content-Sample” to “Content”.

Store the Thesis_18 folder on your desktop.

Go to your host site and log in.

Go to the C-panel and scroll down to the Files section.

Choose “Unlimited FTP”.

Java will load the FTP client. You’ll see two boxes—one on the left with a list containing Desktop, My Documents, Network and My Computer.

Click on Desktop. Highlight the Thesis_18 folder, but don’t click on it.

In the box on the left, click on and open Public_HTML.

Click on the name of the domain you plan to use your Thesis theme on. Scroll to the WP-Content folder. Open it.

Highlight the Themes folder.

Click on the arrow that points from the right box (in which you’ve already highlighted the Thesis_18 folder) to the left box, and the FTP client will load the Thesis file into your themes. It will take a few minutes.

Go back to the C-panel.

Go to the File Manager icon and open it. You’ll see four choices. Choose the Web Root (public_HTML) option. Under the four choices, make sure that the proper domain name is selected. Click “go.”

Choose the proper domain name from the list you now see. Open it.

Choose and open WP-Content.

Choose and open Themes.

Choose and open Thesis_18.

Choose and open Custom.

Highlight Cache.

In the toolbar, click on Change Permissions.

Click in the empty box next to Write, under Group. This will insert a checkmark and change the three numbers underneath from 755 to 775. Click on Change Permissions.

Unhighlight Cache by clicking on it.

Highlight Layout.css. In the toolbar, click on Change Permissions.

Next to Read and Write, click on all three boxes so that they all have a checkmark in them and the numbers at the bottom have changed to 666. Click on Change Permissions.

Log out of your host site and go to the admin page of your blog. Go to Appearance and click on Themes. When it opens. Thesis should show up as one of the theme choices. Activate it. You’re done! Well, except for the part about designing the site. Enjoy!

If so, would it then be smart to uninstall wp and then re-install with the “easy installation” my host service offers? (the one I’m thinking of does have the most current version of wp available)

thank you!

I’m new here and I am also new to WordPress, although I have a

WordPress site which is focused on [https://www.buyherbsandminerals.com]
buying herbs and minerals[/url].
What I would like to ask all of your WordPress experts out there is, what are the relative merits of WordPress in comparison with

Xoops and what would you say the major advantages of using

WordPress would be?

Any and all feedback would be welcomed and thanks for helping a

newbie out.

I am setting up a website and need to figure out if WordPress is the right solution. I taught myself basic HTML, so I have no problem creating pages. However I’m not skilled enough to code some of the more advanced features like email subscription lists or comment tools. I

This is not a blog, but rather a site which I will add content to over time. Is wordpress a good solution for what is essentially a basic web site?

thanks,
