new to php in trouble Help!

The link to your dashboard should only be accessible by you.

You could upload your image into WP via Appearance > Header, no need to edit any php file.

If I could get to my Appearance or to my dashboard for that matter I would have taken care of the problem. Perhaps I was not clear about my request.

I messed around with the php files and now I cannot get to my admin. I posted those two links because I was hoping that someone would click on those links to see the problem, but, evidently it did not work.

I am not that smart but I am not that stupid either to know that I can only get to the admin myself! I’ll figure it out myself. Maybe I just trash the whole deal! A lot of help you are!
Thanks anyhow,
Thia

A lot of help you are!

Sometimes forum communication is challenging, but be assured that all of us volunteers here do the best we can to help. Please be respectful in return.

If you cannot access the dashboard, you can deactivate the theme you modified by changing the name on the theme’s folder – you’ll need to access the files on the server via FTP or Cpanel –

wp-content
     themes
         twentythirteen.HOLD
         twentytwelve

Check that you do have a copy of twentytwelve theme in that folder – so that WP will default to it and (hopefully) let you login again.

I apologize for my ‘A lot of help you are!’ It was just an expression of my utter frustration with my own self! Plz forgive!

For some reason I have not been able to FTP anything other than my Bluehost sites. But I’m not working with bluehost. I’m working with www.remarpro.com & XAMPP and I have not been able to make the ftp work.

It’s a matter of the pass word. No matter what I do in my wordpress installation nor even how all works good but I make an error when I need to correct it & FTP the original site I can’t come up with the right password.

I think I have created about three or four databases for wordpress installation and though that I record each log in info I can’t make anything work. I’m resigned to let it be until I learn by the different posts in your forum and other forums. My project is a learning project so it is not a big deal. Just my learning curve.

In the other hand I learn by doing so I followed your advise & activated twentythirteen and now all is well. Thanks for your help.

Why do you need FTP on a local server?

Because you advised me to FTp. Don’t really know how that works but that’s OK I agree with you I don’t need ftp after all! Hooray!
