I am looking for a tutorial on how to style my word press (hosted on word press) blog to look like my businesses home page. I would like the links to work and look the same. The site isn't completely styled in CSS, but can maybe move more of the styling to css from the HTML. Can someone point me in the right direction where I need to start.
Thanks,
If I'm not mistaken, isn't there an upload theme section at wordpress.com? Anyways, you'll need to zip up your theme (after you make it) and upload it there. Also, here's a tutorial for making a basic theme.

as I already found great help here in the community, I thought I'd post my question here, maybe there'd be somebody who could help me.
I am creating my websites in wordpress and found a great tool for creating an image carousel. As I am more of an intermediate in wordpress and mainly working with plugins, I found the swiper JS plugin in the wordpress plugin directory. It works fine but I have the problem that it won't loop and you can't get to the first and last image of the carousel, it always snaps back to the second and second to last image.

This is the one I am using right now.
My question also is how I can use the Swiper JS in wordpress without using the plugin. I want to have it specifically on one page and it should be mobile friendly. All the design that already is on the page should be remain as it is. Would there be a possibility to include the Swiper Js tool even though I am using a wordpress theme?
Thank you so so much, it is really hugely appreciated!

Only worked with the plugin so far, no css helped...
Using WP custom code.
We assume your words "the plugin" are about that exact SwiperJS plugin.
Have you considered using an iFrame? See lower web links.
An iframe will allow you to add a video, audio, images, etc., so presumably even a slider lands in that category. Try this avenue first to see if it works for your needs. Read about WP iframe use in the links below.
<iframe src="test7.html" width="600" height="300" style="border:1px solid black;" title=""></iframe>
Or...
Other snippet plugin options exist (read developer docs). There are pro/con to some of those options (i.e. time, etc). Read developer resources (from an WP admin perspective) for more ideas.

I think this question is a silly one, but we are here for help, right? So can anyone tell me how to make a home button? Like Youtube, Facebook, W3schools or whatever? You can see Youtube example. And how to make it more beautiful with css?enter image description here I was making this home button like this: Home Without using CSS for now. I will write my real site's name instead of "home" in my html document.
You can always use bootstrap, they have a lot of beautiful buttons and you can copy the source code and learn with it.
I'm using the Divi theme in WordPress. I've been working on 2 websites that are similar and both have the same code in header.php (I copied and pasted it).
It works fine on one website and not on the other. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Thanks
You should tell us more details, for example show us links of your pages, or which part of your code you think is the problem. If you copied and pasted it double check the classes and id, is your css same in both websites?
I'd like to have a video banner on my WordPress site pages. I saw the following site (http://pictoryproductions.com/) and they have exactly what I would like to do on my site. However, I'm not sure what plugin they used to accomplish this. Could anyone just point me in the right direction?
I'm fairly new to WordPress, so if anyone can suggest what plugin to use, or if there is functionality already in place in WordPress for this how I can use it to get the effect I want.
UPDATE
As per the requirement to show what has been done so far to achieve the result I want, I have created a PHP page that uses the HTML 5 video tags to embed the video I want, with the PNG overlay. I then embed the page using an iframe tag from within WordPress. The problem is I have to create a new PHP page for each WordPress page I want with this layout when it needs a different video and overlay png image.
Thank you!!!
To avoid an opinionated answer on what I think is the best plugin to use, I just did a simple View Page Source on the site you posted and picked through to find where that video banner is displayed. It references a lot of classes and stuff labeled "mejs" which I think refers to a mediaelement.js plugin found here:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-element-html5-video-and-audio-player/
I have googled this and looked across this site and for the life of me cannot find an answer,
I am writing a plugin for wordpress and when I log into the dashboard I can see a collapsable div with content all styled nicely.
When I open my plugin page I don't see the same styles even though the page is very basic.
I have copied the code from the dashboard but it seems as though some of the styles are missing.
I do not need to add custom styles or scripts I just want to load the same css as the dashboard page.
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong? I assume that the plugin page will adopt the standard admin css, is this assumption wrong?
You don't have to load anything extra for this, just use the correct classes.
You can either look these up in the source, or by using resources as this:
