someplace in the forum there’s a link to wp-sticky100-beta2.zip that i was told about. i downloaded it yesterday but haven’t gotten around to installing it yet.

many thanks.

To All:

Whooami made a valiant effort and finally came up with the answer.

When I first FTP’d into the site I saw the wp-content directory and followed it to themes.

That’s where I went wrong.

Instead, I should have gone to the public_html directory and followed through it to wp-content/themes there and installed my files.

Whoo shows it like this:

“You want this:

public_html
>>>wp-content/
>>>wp-includes/
>>>wp-admin/

lots of other files, like index.php, wp-comment.php, will be inside public_html also. Leave them there. Just worry about the directories.”

So, many thanks to Whoo for the effort and — better yet — for the solution. Now I’m off to watch the Dead Zone

Whooami,

be glad to if you want to send me your e-mail address.

Whooami,

Whooami,

Sorry.

You’re right, of course, it’s not wp-control. My typo.

It’s wp-content.

And when you go in the way you did — through the address — none of the themes show up.

But when I look at it through file manager — or through FileZilla — they’re sitting right there in wp-conten/themes as big as life.

Whooami,

A couple of things. I went to the site you said and you’re right. Besides, those two files were none of the six that I uploaded. They’re the ones that come with WordPress.

Also, when I click on Parent Directory, it takes me to a blank page with the URL detocquevillesdaughter.com/wp-control. I would’ve guessed that that was my wp-control directory.

Next, you’ll have to excuse my denseness but I’m new at this and, to tell you the truth, I don’t know what you mean by this

“and since you dont seem to have a wp-control directory on your site, Ill assume thats typo. Uploading them to wp-control/themes would not be the correct place for them.”

Maybe the best solution is to uninstall wordpress and reinstall the whole thing to get it right this time.

Whooami,

Also just checked for the files with FileZilla and all six show up as being in wp-control/themes

Whooami,

This is the weirdest thing. I just checked in wp-control/themes in my Control Panel/File Manager and it shows all six of them there.

Haven’t the foggiest of what’s happening here. Can you tell me which two showed up. That might help in tracking down what’s going on.

Thanks folks for the response.

Whooami, here’s the link: detocquevillesdaughter.com

Yosemite, here the path for one of the themes I’ve uploaded:
wp-content/themes/barthelme

i’m guessing that the example you give of index.php is just a forinstance with the index.php file

Lady Delaluna, I’m about 99.99% sure that I’ve uploaded the right folder. (I’d already made the mistake you’re mentioning on the first go-around.) Anyway, most of the themes I’ve uploaded do have an images folder — but one has an icons folder and one has no folder at all — along with a bunch php and png (if I recall) files inside.
