In reply to: Trying to point DNS @ Bandcamp domain…There’s a little confusion here, for me, anyway. First off, have you created a subdomain music.nicoleequerme.com?
All good, Senff. I’ll add this for backing things up. I’ve found the plugin WP Clone to be excellent and easy at backing up. Far easier than mucking around with the host.

In reply to: Links in widget not workingIs that a browser issue, maybe? I don’t see it in Firefox. Good call, Senff.
If you back up your child theme directory, you should be fine, but, generally, you can update WP and the parent theme without affecting the child at all. That’s the point of having a child.
It’s possible you will need to reset something afterwards, depends how careful the theme developers were, but, generally, there’s no reason to worry. It’s also always possible that an old plugin won’t work with a WP update so you just have to try.
There’s no reason to update the other themes, they are not doing anything. If fact, it’s a bit safer to delete old themes and plugins that are not in use because they are sometimes targets for hacking.

In reply to: Testimonial Box Background and TrasnparencyThe style for hb-testimonial is in your style.css. I don’t think you can use this to individual boxes, though. You may be able to create a new style for that box adding it inline where you add the text for that testimonial, depends on whether it lets you add classes to it. That I’m not sure of without seeing how the testimonials are added.
To change the style for hb-testimonial, you could try putting it in the custom css again, but adding !important after the commands — background: rgba(62,188,74,0.5) !important; — to see if that works. I notice you may also need to change hb-testimonial:after to change that little triangular callout at the bottom. But, again, this is for all the boxes.

In reply to: Media Library empty but uploads directory populatedDid you maybe move the files into the folder with ftp instead of uploading them with the media uploader? If so, the media library doesn’t “know” that they are there. I’ve found the plugin Add from Server to be really useful when that’s the case.
If not, be sure to wear your aluminum foil hat to avoid the aliens brain beams.

In reply to: Testimonial Box Background and TrasnparencyCan you add css styling to hb-testimonial (not positive this is where you are talking about)? That changes it for me.
Right now it has
//
.hb-testimonial {
padding: 20px;
border: 1px solid #E1E1E1;
background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% #FFF;
border-radius: 3px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
position: relative;
}
//
Change the background to whatever you prefer.
//
background: rgba(62,188,74,0.5);
//
would be green and 50% opacity.You can change your style.css if you are using a child theme or add custom css to your theme if it has it or add a plugin like Simple Custom CSS to add it.

In reply to: Fixing Strange Image Links (and changing them) after Moving Site URLI’m not positive I followed your question, but I found a plugin Add from Server that forces WP media library to recognize image files that have been moved to the folder. Saved me tons of time when I had something that sounds like this. Good luck.

In reply to: Post background and footer don't extend with contentDon’t know without the CSS but this looks like you are missing an end tag. You’ll get this kind of mess for instance if you don’t close a </div> properly. It could be in the post or page rather than the style.css
I would check that you have end tags, >, and }.
Just an idea.
