In desperate need of help

    Hello, I am new to wordpress and I recently discovered that we need to make a portfolio for one of my classes. Since I have zero experience with creating webpages, I figured starting with wordpress would be the way to go. I quickly bought the theme Flashlight from themeforest, and registered with Dreamhost for a domain name and such blah blah. However I just cannot seem to figure out how to change the display title of my site. Here is a link http://www.zacharyemiller.com/. I want it to say Zachary Miller, not Flashlight, but have no clue how to change it. There are no options within the theme editing tab that I can see to change it. Thank you so much for your help. My GPA depends on it haha.

    You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

    This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. If your question is about a self-hosted WordPress blog then you’ll find help at the WordPress.org forums.

    If you don’t understand the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you may find this information helpful.

    If you forgot to include a link to your blog, you can reply and include it below. It’ll help people to answer your question.

    Hi there,
    We cannot help you with that site here on the WordPress.com forums as we support only free hosted WordPress.com blogs and yours is not a WordPress.com site. You need to post to http://wordpress.ORG/support/ to get help with your site. Best wishes. :)

    Hi Zachary,

    The title that you’re referring to is an image (logo.png). Without knowing anything about the Flashlight Theme, I would guess that to change the title you upload an image with the same dimensions (180px x 85px) and filename (logo.png) to /wp-content/themes/flashlight/skin-minimal/images.

    If that doesn’t work you might try contacting ThemeForest’s support team here: http://themeforest.net/support

    Hope that helps!
    Micah

    [edit] Timethief is right – in the future you should use the WordPress.org support forums at the link she gave.
