It worked! Really neat. Thanks again Saildude. Really appreciate all the help you gave me.

Aaaah! I got it! I found it under “Edit Themes” in the “header.php” file.

Thank you so much Saildude! I see now how the html is placed here. Really neat if I can actually get it to do what I want. ??

Can I ask one more thing? This is my site…
https://sustainableonlinesuccess.com/

and I don’t want the main header reading “sustainableonlinesuccess.com” but “Sustainable Online Success”

The main Header code is this:
<h1>“><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
Is there a place it is drawing the name from?

No clue… If I view page source on the site this part reads like this:
<h1>sustainableonlinesuccess.com</h1>

That is easy to change but I don’t know how to change the WP html without maybe messing up my blog again.

Thank you so much Patyuen and Saildude.

So how can someone remove a defunct button from a theme? I bought the theme. Can any html editing be done with WordPress? Sorry so new and learning html. When I open the index.php file it does not have the source code for the site …. like when you go and view source code on a site… I can see what needs changing but no idea where to put it.

I did try uploading an index.html file and it did just as you said Saildude…. WordPress stopped working as a blog.. no posts showed.So had to wipe it all out and start again with original uploads. Now stuck with buttons on the page that need to be removed.

It worked. I installed the default theme and activated …. completely uninstalled the other theme… cleared it everywhere… and then re-installed and activated it again. Posts are now showing.

Thank you so much.

Sorry. Brand new. So latest WP 3. I am using a theme I bought.

Thank you MacManX. I will try this.

OK. Neat. I will find filezilla. Thank you!

Thanks so much. No clue what an ftp is but will find out.

Me either. I do not understand the extension address to access theme files. Every which way I add it to the url it goes to error… not found.

Hostgator managed to fix this error for me. Just not showing it yet… but in comms with them still.

So super to have a help forum BTW. Thank you.

Where it asks for the directory to install WP to it says to leave it blank

It says:
Leave empty to install in the root directory of the domain (access example: https://domain/).
Enter only the directory name to install in a directory (for https://domain/name/ enter name only). This directory SHOULD NOT exist, it will be automatically created!

So somewhere it does now exist and needs to un-exist… but I don’t know how to make that happen.

I wish I could just by-pass this fantastico nonsense but I don’t know how to install manually.

Where is the root directory of the domain found? I ask for patience… I know almost NOTHING about all this. ?? I am using cPanel with Hostgator.

I have a problem using fantastico to install WordPress because the wrong domain was set for the site first… I installed WP…. then noticed the error…. then the site was corrected to the right domain name … and now getting this message. I have no idea how to fix this reported error. Please help. It must be the latest version because only doing this now.

Install WordPress (2/3)

The installation can not be completed:

– You cannot install more than one script in the root directory of a domain.

Click on the browser’s Back button to fix reported errors.

Thanks so much! I’ll check it out.
