I understand how themes work what I am having trouble with is the HFS of the wordpress structure on the server. Which index is driving the bus the theme I selected or the base wordpress theme that is at the root level?
That is where I am having the issues my js and css are conflicting with the base WP js and css. I can use my own .xhtml files for my content but the css fails to work as does the js.
should these be separate files with absolute paths? Not a problem just not familiar with the process.
Does this conflict with the internal workings of WP as far as posts and search go?
