Editing a Theme

[BuffaloMike]

I am using the Hot Orange T and I want to edit the picture and text but I don't know where to find the file named header-txt.php in this theme's directory.
Where is it hiding?
Thank you!

Hey Mike,
If the site is on your own host go to yourdomain/wp-admin
Log in with the Wordpress user name and password from your Website Settings page.
Once in wp-admin, click the Design tab and then the Theme Editor tab.
You will then click on the header.php file.
Once that is open, you should see where you can edit.

I went to Host Gator's cpanel and found the files there. But I'll keep the wp-admin as another option.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi BuffaloMike

Did you manage to find out the easiest way to use a non-WPD theme?

I have the same issue.

The options were either using c-panel in your hosting account or using Wordpress.

Would appreciate your opinion.

Thanks!

I think you have to manually upload (use FTP) the theme into the WPD themes folder after you have imported the site to a WPD site.

Hope it helps.

I'm using healthy diet theme at http://www.weightlossforwoman.com/ and can't figure out how to edit header so the posted article links don't overlap banner...

That answer lies in how many recently posted articles are displaying. It was 4. Now it is 2.

i am a real newbie. I can get into the theme editing and into the header.php but can't tell where the photo image is that I want to change. I probably shouldn't even be in the editor given how little I know.

I love this Talbot theme but there is a picture of a girl on it that I would need to change for one of me. Any suggestions ?
