The banner at the top is what I need to center.

Yeah, it’s not that bad.
I’m not 100% on this, but I think that if you made other changes in the editor section (in like header.php, sidebar.php, etc) those will still be implemented once you activate your child theme. You don’t have to make those changes directly to the stylesheet. I could be wrong, but I think I remember doing this.

<b> this just bolds</b>
& why would I change h1 to h6?

If you don’t remember exactly what you changed, you should copy the entire stylesheet you edited into notepad, save it, and then reinstall a fresh version of your theme. Then you can create a child theme and paste your edited stylesheet (or just the parts that have been changed) into the child theme style.css file in the editor.

Hey Clayton,

My problem was that I didn’t know how to get to my theme’s master stylesheet & I had no idea about child themes. It took me awhile to figure out ??

I have another question though, if you’re still around: I created a child theme and imported the master stylesheet in it. But there’s code from the imported stylesheet that I want to DELETE. I copy+pasted the part of the master stylesheet that I deleted lines of code from, but it’s not showing up on my webpage (and I already activated the child theme). My current code is this:

/*Override Master Post Header
---------------------------------------*/
.entry h2.title {
	font-size: 1.6em;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0 0 10px 0;
}
.entry h2 a:link, .entry h2 a:visited {
	color: #444;
	text-shadow: 0 1px 0 #fff;
}
.entry h2 a:hover { color: #285a86; }

}
a:hover img.index-post-thm { -moz-transform: rotate(-2deg); -

webkit-transform: rotate(-2deg); }

}

I edited that from the master stylesheet that looks like this:

/*Post Header
---------------------------------------*/
.entry h2.title {
	font-size: 1.6em;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0 0 10px 0;
}
.entry h2 a:link, .entry h2 a:visited {
	color: #444;
	text-shadow: 0 1px 0 #fff;
}
.entry h2 a:hover { color: #285a86; }
.post .date {
	position: absolute;
	left: -93px;
	width: 73px;
	height: 73px;
	text-align: center;
	background: rgba(0, 0, 0, .15);
}
.post .date div {
	font-size: 1.3em;
	color: #efefef;
	font-weight: bold;
	letter-spacing: 2px;
}
.post .date .day {
	margin-top: 15px;
	font-size: 2.4em;
}
.post .date .month {
	text-transform: uppercase;
	font-weight: normal;
	color: #ccc;
}
a:hover img.index-post-thm { -moz-transform: rotate(-2deg); -webkit-transform: rotate(-2deg); }

The code I deleted from the master stylesheet creates a date section on my category pages. I wasn’t able to figure out how to delete sections form the master stylesheet (in the child theme) without just editing/adding code.

Thanks again for your help.

Yeah, I know. But my theme doesn’t have the FULL stylesheet available for editing in the editor. I couldn’t have even seen the code without using firebug, since the stylesheet is imported using this code:

/* Import Stylesheets
-----------------------------------------------------------*/
@import url("stylesheets/master.css");

/* Required WordPress Classes, don't remove these.
-----------------------------------------------------------*/
.aligncenter {
  display: block;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
}
.alignleft { float: left; }
.alignright { float: right; }

So I’m wondering how I can completely remove the original stylesheet that I can see via firebug and replace it with the modified version. Do I just copy each line of code, line by line, and place it in this stylesheet.php file? Or is there some other way?

Okay, I think I understand what happened..but
Why would the login redirect to this page..?
And why is the content all messed up?
And how can I fix it if I can’t get into the dashboard? :/

Update: When I refresh the dashboard page, I am redirected to this:

https://phitlab.site40.net/wordpress/?cat=23%2Fwp-login.php&redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fphitlab.site40.net%2Fwordpress%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

o_o

Ohh, I see. I didn’t know I could dupe the CSS file.
I’m fixing it now. Thanks

The color scheme/ template doesn’t pop like a comic site ought to! Also, I think the navi links should be at the top or the left-hand side. It looks a little strange having 2 columns on the leftside of hte page.

Great looking site!
Only suggestion is to change the background color / color scheme so it looks a little nicer. ??

I really like the color scheme/ look.
..but! It would look much nicer if you centered the header and the page.. and if you added some navigation links. The page takes way too long to load with everything being on one page.
