# Linking Theme Stylesheet

 * Good evening,
 * My website is: [http://www.erinjackson.net](http://www.erinjackson.net)
    And 
   my post is related to this item on the Gigpress FAQ:
 * “My GigPress stuff looks all lame and unstyled on my site. What gives?
    It could
   be that your theme is missing the wp_head() hook in the <head> section of the
   template. GigPress needs that in order to link to its stylesheet (and optionally
   your user stylesheet), which makes stuff look nice.”
 * I have tried to figure this out myself, but after much Googling I’m still nowhere.
   As I don’t know CSS and stylesheet, etc. I don’t know where to find the <head
   > section or what if anything goes in between the parentheses: “wp_head()” to
   better integrate Gigpress into the look of my site. I downloaded a plugin that
   sounded like it might help called “Per Page Add to Head” but I have no idea if
   its what I need. I pasted just what is in the FAQ above: “wp_head()” into that
   section on my tour page, but it made no difference and I’m sure there’s more 
   I should add. The instructions are surely for ppl more experienced than I. Any
   help is appreciated.
 * Thank you so much for your time.

 * Also, the page where the Gigpress lives is [http://erinjackson.net/tour4/](http://erinjackson.net/tour4/)
 * Until I am able to make it look better with the site I’m using the tour plugin
   from the theme designer. The drawback is that it doesn’t accommodate multi-day
   events. You have to enter them each manually and when I’m gone for a month(s)
   at a time, it just isn’t feasible. I definitely prefer Gigpress.
 * Thanks again

 * Hi. Sorry for the delayed response here.
 * I don’t think you need that plugin (but can’t say for sure).
 * You should look in your theme folder, find the header.php file, and make sure
   you have something like this in it:
 *     ```
       <head>
       	<meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">
       	<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
       	<link rel="profile" href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
       	<?php wp_head(); ?>
       </head>
       ```
   
 * If you have something similar in <head> without the [wp_head WordPress PHP function](https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development#Plugin_API_Hooks),
   it needs to be added in.
 * Your theme developer should be following WordPress’ best practices: [https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/recommended/templates/](https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/recommended/templates/)
 * However, we cannot assist any further with non-default WordPress themes. We can
   only provide support for [WordPress default themes](https://wordpress.org/themes/author/wordpressdotorg/)
   like TwentyFourteen, TwentyFifteen, TwentySixteen, etc.
 * I hope you get things working well.
