I don’t want to even upload a theme now.. just install one that appears in Admin.. but, again: it wants my FTP info.. this is extremely annoying.. why can’t you just work and build your site in localhost and then upload WHEN YOU ARE READY?? I mean testing a site/changes/edits in localhost and then uploading to FTP only once you’re satisfied is…. well.. the way I have always worked.. but it seems WP system wants to transfer changes immediately to FTP… shouldn’t YOU decide when you’re ready to push your site (or edits thereof) to FTP?? I mean if I were building or editing a site for a client, I wouldn’t want WP to upload the changes immediately… I would want to test first in localhost, THEN when I’m satisfied and ready, transfer to the server….. sorry, I really don’t get this.. am getting increasingly frustrated here….

thank you for any insights/advice/help….

hi hyperionstudios….

thank you for your response… how can I not have permissions to write to my own computer HD? ;~)) (not sure what you mean by “user permissions”…)

I’ve had this website set up in my local env for months… I have made changes to the CSS, etc… (have even added my own JS code..)

my setup: PHP env that came with my MacBook Pro out of the box (& have “regular” PHP sites set up too..) mySQL that I installed myself.. np connecting to db…

thank you…

thank you very much!!!!

and what about the search feature here?

Support Forums

when you search for a term here, the results are from the Codex, not just the forums….

and how do you navigate to a list of the forums????????
i.e., what is the url for a list of the forums?

here,

Welcome to the ww.wp.xz.cn support forums

it says:

“Post your question in the appropriate forum….”

“the appropriate forum” being a link, but not to a list of forums; instead it’s a link to a search form in which the results include content from the Codex in general, not just the forums..

I searched for “create a page”, the results I got were mostly from the Codex, not the forums.. in fact, none of the results on the first page of results are from the forum…

once again? where is the url for the list of forums?

(I don’t remember at all how I got to the forum “Requests and Feedback”, where I posted my original question here.. and how would you get back to the list of forums from this forum
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/ )???

would appreciate a response.. thank you…..

ok, I found it..

thanks..

(preferred posting here as it’s more anonymous.. oh well….;-)
