Fix Your Themes CSS File

Posted on March 2nd, 2009 by Randy Bragg in Blogging Advice, Wordpress

Where Is My Style.CSS File

If you don’t have some ftp software, you need to get some. The software will allow you to transfer data easier than using your site server. Go to CNET.com for ftp software, as evaluation basis, so if you like the software, go buy it. After you get it go to your site’s theme and copy the [tag]style.css [/tag] file, double click on it and away you go.

Software Used To Edit Style.CSS

The program I used to edit my format of my site is Microsoft Development Environment. Copy and paste the style.css file to your computer and double click on it. If you don’t have the software you can go find some freeware at CNET.com.

What Am I Looking At

After opening the file you will notice that there is a list of HTML tags, the first one is an asterisk, and this is going to give you some of the functionality for the main page, like changing the colors of you background in the sidebar. As you go down you will notice that there are tags to click on for the rest of the site. Go through each one and see what’s inside. You have a lot of power at your finger tips, so be careful.

How Do I Get It Back In My Site

Copy and paste the file and put it back in to the Themes category. I suggest before you start to tweak you style.css file that you back it up first. If you mess your site up you can restore it with the back up file, as I had to do at least ten times. It will ask you if you want to replace the existing file, say yes and in she goes. Go see what changes you have made.
