I just signed up for wordpress.com, I can see how to edit CSS but I want the header to not be text but rather an image. how do I update the page template on wordpress? on tumblr it's so easy, wordpress is tricky!
You're very limited with what you can do with css and xhtml on Wordpress.com. You can't write your own page templates or make siginificant changes to .com themes.
What you're probably thinking about is self-hosting Wordpress, and if you do that, you can do whatever you want with themes, css and xhtml. See Main Page « WordPress Codex and Hosting WordPress « WordPress Codex.
Wordpress.com only let's you edit CSS of their pre-installed themes. Actual theme files cannot be edited, and also you cannot install just any theme you want. You will need to self host your own Wordpress install to customize and add themes in the manner that you are hoping to.
Since you can only edit the CSS on Wordpress.com, you might try a background image. You can upload an image into the media section and then, using CSS, format the header area to the height and width that you want and place a background image into the header. And then if you want to get rid of all of the text, you could use something like this on the header to push all of the text off the page:
text-align:left;
text-indent:-5000px;

I want to change the footer text and add my website name in it, how could I do so? I am using Magazine Pro Theme on Wordpress.
Normally pro themes provide documentation for customizing it. You can find there the changing option. You can also check the theme option for that.
I hope you will get your answer.
I must be present somewhere in the theme customizer. In mostly themes footer text will present in theme customizer under footer option
If you don't find the code in the theme customizer, then another method is to change it from the footer.php file. First of all, login to your WordPress dashboard and visit Appearance » Theme Editor from the left sidebar of your WordPress dashboard. On the right side, you'll see different theme files. From here open the Theme Footer file (footer.php).

Now you can change the footer text from here. But before changing it, save the backup of code for restoration in case if you change the wrong code. If you still face any issues, send me the code which is present in footer.php and I'll guide you which code you have to change.
I am coding WordPress theme and need to create custom CSS box like Addition CSS of BasicStore theme. Please tell me how to do that.
enter image description here
You can do this many different ways
I prefer ACF options page (https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/add-ons/options-page/) but I thinks this available only with POR version.
Then you can use WP options page (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_options_page/)
or customizer (https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/customize_register)
I want to edit my wordpress website CSS style using the dashboard. I only can login using admin password and username but I dont have the website file. Where I should write the CSS statements ?
Dashboard - Appearance - Editor - style.css
if you are looking to edit the CSS of a blog hosted by wordpress, follow these directions:
go to Appearance → Customize → CSS in your blog dashboard.
You will be able to add custom CSS here.
Make sure you save your changes, then refresh your page.
This site has a detailed description of how to do this.
The directions are more complex if you wish to add a custom stylesheet to your theme. Just based on the question alone, i'm assuming that wordpress.com is hosting your blog though.
Go to admin panel-> appearance->Editor->style.css will appear on right hand side.
I recently started developing websites on wordpress. I have this problem with tinymce editor. When i write post and format content it looks how I want in it. But when I publish post and check that it looks really crappy.Then I called the stylesheet of tinymce editor on everypage of website. I must say there is change but it still looks bad.
How can I get content in exact formatted way as I see in the tinyMCE?
Thanks,
kiran
On the frontend the styles from your theme will be taking precedence over the layout and sizing of content.
In the administration section it will be using a default TinyMCE editor css file. This allows for Wordpress to easily support a variety of themes without making many changes.
So that leaves you with the potential inconsistency, which you have identified here.
Either you work with the WYSIWYG editor giving you an approximation or you could add the relevant styles from your theme to the editors CSS. This can be done using add_editor_style() DOCs.
Use this WordPress plugin to solve your problem.
