# Localhost Install Not Loading Theme Stylesheets

 * I have just installed WordPress on my Ubuntu LAMP environment and I can successfully
   access wp-admin. However, my site only displays simple HTML without any CSS styling.
   The stylesheet is included in the head and I can access it via URL (so the permissions
   must be correct), but it will not load into the page. When I am logged in, the
   admin bar stylesheet does not load either. Every theme I try has the same problem.
 * Wp-admin works fine and loads the stylesheet.
 * Any ideas as to what may be causing this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

 * define( ‘CONCATENATE_
    SCRIPTS’, false ); Add this code to wp_config.php file.
 *  This will fix the issue !

 * I added that to wp-config.php but it did not work.
 * And another note, when logging in, the login form page (wp-admin) does not render
   with a stylesheet as well. It is only once I am logged in that the admin section
   is styled.

 * There are too many variables involved to attempt any type of accurate answer 
   with just the little bit of information you’ve provided.
 * Your best bet may be to take a look at the mountain of information that’s available
   to help with installing WordPress on Ubuntu.
 * [“how to install wordpress” Ubuntu](https://www.google.com/#q=%22how+to+install+wordpress%22+Ubuntu)
 * Customize the above search (link goes to Google) to include however you decided
   to install WordPress. Examples: set up a web server first, and then installed
   _WordPress in /var/www_, or installed wordpress and all the dependencies using_“
   apt-get-install wordpress”_ ..
 * Something along those lines might get you to a guide that will work for your 
   setup.

 * Suggest that you look into your theme (or child theme).
    Do the folders have 
   the correct permissions ? Can you change theme (for instance the default twentyfourteen)
   Are the folder names using the correct names and case ? Suggest looking at your
   website using firebug, what does it make of your headers and css ?

 * Im having a simmilar issue. Im currently using wamp as my server on a windows
   7 machine that i had laying around. I can access the server from any of my local
   computers to the server. When i access the page im currently working on (which
   im using wordpress) I can see it with any issue on the server side but when i
   access the page or site from a local computer to the network (not the server)
   it comes up with a html version of the site. no css any ideas?
