  • EDIT — I had to reconnect my Google account. Looks like I’m good now.

    I’m having the same issue. Here is the file:

    Thanks ChristiNi, I followed your prior suggestion and am using Instant WordPress to create the site on my computer. That’s the issue with this, this isn’t a new site I was looking to give my current site some snazz. Again, another WP assumption.

    You’ve been a big help and I’ve stopped cursing and actually working on my updated site.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks, I’ll give it a try.

    This is kind of frustrating since it’s touted as a 5-minute install. That may be true, but the assumptions that you’re downloading to THEIR preferred hosts, you’re starting from the beginning and don’t have a site already, you’re not sharing a Web host with someone to save money are a little much for me.

    Hopefully this will go more smoothly from here.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks for all the help, I already have a live site so I’m good with that aspect, just wanted to give it more pizzazz with some of the themes from WordPress.

    I think I’m good to go. Backing up the site now.

    Next question…how do I play with the site without it showing up live? I normally use Dreamweaver for that, but that’s not an option here.

    Yes, same hosting account, two different domains. I have a folder in the Public/HTML folder with my site files separate from hers.

    So I should create a separate account and change the config file to point only to mine and that will eliminate any chances of mistakingly updating hers?

    We’re sharing the server, but I have to log in under her domain. I’ll look into the multi site install though.

    Was I right to keep all the WordPress files under the main HTML folder or should have saved it in the folder for my site.

    Thanks for your help.
