    Although you have made a simple request but right now not too many members here are knowledgeable about WP theme so you might not get the help right away. However, WP is a very popular system and they have a very active community where you probably can get this type of help quite quickly. Go to their support forum and see if they can help you with that. Good luck.

    You don't have a style.css

    Hi Judia,

    First thing I notice from your zip file is that you don't have a style.css which is one of the minimum requirements to tell WordPress that you have created a theme.

    I am attaching the style.css from the WordPress default TwentyEleven theme so you can see the important information you need to give in the comments section at the top.

    I had to rename it to style.css.txt to upload so just delete the .txt from the filename when you download it.

    Put the downloaded and edited (for theme name etc) style.css into your theme folder and see how it goes.

    Hopefully the default styling will also give you a head start for your theme then you can edit as necessary.

    For great CSS info go to w3schools.com

    All the best,

    Jeremy :cool:

    RE: *Parse error*: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in index.php

    Hi Judia,

    Currently line 4 of your index.php reads:

    Code:
    <? php $query_string .= "&paged=1&posts_per_page=1";
    Try removing the space just before the "php" i.e.

    Code:
    <?php $query_string .= "&paged=1&posts_per_page=1";
    All the best,

    Jeremy :cool:
