One of the most common questions that I get asked by clients is how to upload a new WordPress theme, so I’ve put together a video which demonstrates the entire process. There are 2 things required to follow along with the video. 1) An ftp application for transferring the files of the new theme up to your blog. There are many many ftp applications. My favorite, which I demonstrate in the video is FireFTP. This is a plugin for the popular FireFox browser, which I highly recommend. Download FireFox browser (if you don’t already have it) Then get the FireFtp plugin here. I’ll show you how to install it in the video. Alternatives: FileZilla (free) Smart FTP (free for personal use) Cyber Duck (for MAC users) 2) The new theme that you’d like to install. The best place to start looking for new themes is the WordPress theme repository. The rest of the information you’ll need is covered in the video, including a bonus section on copying any code changes that you may have done in your old theme over to the new one.

The technical skill and time needed to set up a beautiful and functional blog is enormous if you are not familiar with the computer literacy aspect. I was becoming frustrated with the endless technical details and discouraged that I might never have a blog. Ninja Blog Setup was suggested to me. I sent an email. I had a blog up and was posting on it within 1 day. That simple. I can’t say enough about their professionalism, their willingness to answer questions, to accommodate my technical limitations, and customize my blog preferences. My experience with the Ninja has been so positive that I probably will begin another blog in the future. I would not consider doing it myself when all I could accomplish and more is an email away. This company is the ultimate in customer service. I only wish I hadn’t waited so long before contacting them. Christine Scaman There are varied remedies for sundry diseases.

EDIT: SINCE WORDPRESS IS NOW WELL BEYOND VERSION 2.3, THIS POST IS NO LONGER RELEVANT AND I HAVE CLOSED COMMENTS ON IT. YOU SHOULD BE UPDATING TO THE NEWEST VERSION USING THE BUILT-IN UPDATER IN YOUR DASHBOARD. This is a step by step guide to upgrading to WordPress 2.3. This guide only takes into consideration plugins installed by Ninja Blog Setup. If you have others then you may need to upgrade or disable them if you encounter any errors. The only plugin that causes any problems when upgrading is the Add Meta Tags plugin. The plugin has been updated now, so you can just grab the latest version and install it. As of writing this post there wasn’t a update to the plugin, but it is a very useful plugin so I have provided a file that has a patch which makes it compatible with WordPress 2.3. Download the patched plugin, by right clicking here and saving to your desktop. Unzip the file and then using an ftp program, upload the add-meta-tags.php file up to the /plugins/ folder and overwrite the one that is already on your site. Upgrade the Google (XML) Sitemaps plugin by de-activating the current version, and deleting it and then installing the latest version from here. The new version is needed for WordPress 2.3. NOTE: pressing the “Update” button from the plugin page is not getting the latest version, you MUST do it manually as I described above. Deactivate the Simple Tagging & Sitemap Tags plugins as they are no longer required for WordPress 2.3 and will cause errors if kept active. You will be able to import your tags, so they won’t be lost. Backup your entire system by going to Manage / Backup and select all the tables and perform a backup. Run Instant Upgrade to upgrade WordPress to the latest version by going to Manage / Instant Upgrade. If the upgrade needs completion manually just follow the links. Use this plugin (Simple Tagging Import) to import your “Simple Tagging” tags into the new WordPress tagging system. Download and install the plugin and then follow the instructions on the documentation. Go back to your WordPress backup page to include all the tables on your weekly or daily backups. This is necessary since there are new tables from the old version and you want them all to be backed up. Add code to your template to display the new WordPress tags. Do this by going to Presentation / Theme Editor. Open the Single Post file from the right hand menu. And then add the following line: Tags <?php the_tags(' ', ' ', ' ');...
