Hello- I have an "Artisteer for Dummies" kind of question:

I have exported my Artisteer theme as Wordpress with the export button in the program, so it's now in a folder on my computer.

I have Fantastico in Hostgator. To work on the CSS, do I now load the theme with Fantastico or can I work on the CSS in the file on my computer? If I load it with Fantastico, do I need to work on the site live on the domain?

Thanks again for your help!

Artie

Hi Artie,

In your Wordpress admin, there is an option to upload themes via accessing a zip file from your local machine. This is why there is a zip export option in Artisteer...

To add/edit css you can open any css file from your theme files even on your local computer. To upload it to your wordpress installation using a FTP like filezilla.

I was able to access the local files- now do I just edit the main stylesheet or do I make the same changes to the IE6 and IE 7 stylesheets as well?

Again, new at this so I'm not sure...

ie6,css and ie7.css controls rendering of your theme in IE browsers you need to edit them as well if you wanna see your changes in IE browser
