Default Help a dummie! Agota's thread of dumb questions
Hello,

I'll be launching my blog very soon and it turns out that I'm not as internet savvy as I thought, so I need some help with my dummy questions. I created this thread so I wouldn't have to create a new thread once a question pops up.

1. I have a hostgator hosting and I installed wordpress, so it's my home page now. How do I log in to wordpress???

2. I've downloaded a free theme from woothemes, but once I log in, how do i set it up as my blog theme?

Sorry, I only used wordpress with wordpress hosting and now when I have my own hosting I'm very confused

1. You'll go to ://www.your-domain.com/wp-login.php to login to your wordpress backend

2. Once inside, find appearance > Themes > Install Theme (then just upload you .zip file of your theme)

As soon as you log in to your website (see previous answer) you'll see that it is very similar to what you are used to with wordpress.com....

I also wanted to ask, maybe someone knows if I can add an text boxes on Woo Methamophosis theme.

On the right sidebar I want to add about box with my photo and short bio, newsletter subscription box and donations box, so it all would be above recent posts. Can I do that with this theme?

Thank you very much to everyone who helped me - I didn't think it will be so confusing!
