Hello, I am fairly new and finally got filezilla working with wordpress using earthlink host. After I uploaded the theme, and activated it, how do I go about editing the page it self ? Do I edit the files in filezilla or in wordpress ?

I think I have to install a theme inside my child because it still is giving me that message that I’m missing a theme and css file. I clicked and dragged the css file inside notepad, and copy and pasted

/*
Theme Name: Twenty Twelve Child
Theme URI: http://example.com/
Description: Child theme for the Twenty Twelve theme
Author: Your name here
Author URI: http://example.com/about/
Template: twentytwelve
Version: 0.1.0

Aren’t you missing the line that starts with an @ symbol?

If you are getting an error message, it’s not set up correctly. Do you have this file structure:
```
wp-content
   themes
      twentytwelve
      twentytwelvechild
         style.css
```
Do you have the @import line in your child them style.css file below what you pasted above?

No. You never place a theme inside a theme.

Are you using pagelines or twentytwelve – the names have to be the same. Do you have pagelines theme installed (not activated) if you are using that one?
