I did that, and uploaded all the other files to the public_html folder where all the other WP files are located. I uploaded the new index.php file but when I tried to access the blog I got a mysql error so I uploaded the original WP index.php file and the blog works, just get the missing stylesheet info in the admin.

Thats the beauty of WP themes, you upload a theme folder, choose the theme in the admin and your done. There is no uploading files here and there. The index file you uploaded did not work, because it is just the theme part of the real index file. Last edited by ronnie; 2008-02-28 at 02:06 PM.. |

Well if every single file that came with the theme is in the theme folder, you should be set. Just pick the theme in the admin and your good to go. Since it has different styles, there should be options for the theme in the admin, under the "presentation" tab. Every theme I have used/tired (many), all that is needed to is upload the theme folder, thats it. There are NO files that need to be uploaded anywhere else.

OK, I got it now. All the other files that weren't in the skins folder had to be uploaded into the skins folder. I wonder why he had the skins folder a seperate folder from all the other files? Anyway, I have the theme I want now I have to tweak it.

lol.. you did not listen to what I said.. the theme folder doesn't have the index.php file because, as you said, you put in in the public_html folder with all the other php files from the theme.
Start from scratch..... find the zip for the theme. unzip it somewhere. Once unzipped you should have a folder, upload that complete folder in to the wp-content/themes/ folder on your sever. DO NOT move any of the files around, leave it as is! That is all you need to do, as i keep saying. Upload the complete, original folder and do nothing more with that folder or it's files. After that go to your WP admin, then to Presentation, click on the theme you uploaded and it should be up on your blog. From the sound of the theme, there should be some options in the presentation section for that theme. |

Glad to here you got it. They probably have a separate folder to keep things straight and for easier upgrades, ect.
Looks though, that you need to put the original theme stylesheet, that came with the them, into the theme folder. Last edited by ronnie; 2008-02-28 at 05:38 PM.. |

I just looked at your blog and I'm pretty sure that you're missing the style sheet for the particular skin you have chosen. Check the skins/ folder within your journalized theme to make sure all the .css files are present (should be 6).

I just downloaded the theme your using. After unzipped it gives you a folder of "journalized" thats the folder that shoould be uploaded. If I was you, I would start over. Unzip the theme and uupload the folder.
In that folder there is style.css, it's there, you just moved it or uploaded it to the public_html folder, it needs to ONLY be in the journalized folder, no where else. Same for all the php files that came with the theme. |

I concur. Delete the entire theme from your server and start from scratch.

From reading about the theme, it looks like you will need to dig into the code to change it around. Maybe there are options for that?
Here is why I praise widgets. Widgets allow you to basically build your blog and the layout by dragging blocks of code. No need to go into the pages to change the layout or to change parts. |

![]() Glad you got it to work, it only gets easier from here. And I agree with Ronnie, a widgetized theme is the way to go.

But I want this theme (pout). Yeah, maybe I'll keep looking for a widgetable theme that I like...

You can widgetize a non-wigetized theme, but it involves some php and messing with your templates. I just did one the other day, but it was just one sidebar, pretty easy. Not to mention getting everything to work with your CSS.
I am curious what you see in that theme? As UW would say, it's so 1998. There are plenty of higher quality 3 column or more if you want. Also the side bars look so small, hard to fit much in there and it still look nice. Did you look at that link I gave you? |

I looked at about 80 themes and didn't see any with three columns. I may go back and look through them all. I originally saw the theme here and liked it. Well, a pretty "pussy pink" color would be better.

I can't settle on any theme, maybe UW should suggest 3-4 and let me pick one

That which does not kill us, will try, try again.

One quick suggestion...
If you want to use a 3-column theme with your posts appearing in the middle column, you can look for a theme that uses CSS to let you to put the content of your center column first in the source code instead of after all the stuff in your left-side menu. FWIW
