    <p>I'm making a wordpress template from scratch. I've eliminated many of the files and kept in just the header.php, footer.php, index.php, and style.css to rule out many of my potential problems.</p> <p>I've played with the code, looked up questions, googled for my solution, but I'm not sure why my style isn't being recognized when i go to my site</p> <p>the following are my 4 files:</p> <p><strong>style.css</strong></p> <pre><code>/* Eric Meyer's Reset CSS v2.0 - http://cssreset.com */ html,body,div,span,applet,object,iframe,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,p,blockquote,pre,a,abbr,acronym,address,big,cite,code,del,dfn,em,img,ins,kbd,q,s,samp,small,strike,strong,sub,sup,tt,var,b,u,i,center,dl,dt,dd,ol,ul,li,fieldset,form,label,legend,table,caption,tbody,tfoot,thead,tr,th,td,article,aside,canvas,details,embed,figure,figcaption,footer,header,hgroup,menu,nav,output,ruby,section,summary,time,mark,audio,video{border:0;font-size:100%;font:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;margin:0;padding:0}article,aside,details,figcaption,figure,footer,header,hgroup,menu,nav,section{display:block}body{line-height:1}ol,ul{list-style:none}blockquote,q{quotes:none}blockquote:before,blockquote:after,q:before,q:after{content:none}table{border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0} /* MAIN STYLE */ html { font-size: 20px; } body { } #bodywrapper { background: gray; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 5em; } header { height:20em; background: #000; color: #fff; margin: 0 auto; } #nav { } #nav ul { list-style-type: none; } #nav ul li { display: inline-block; padding: 1em; } #nav ul li a{ padding: 1em; text-align: center; text-decoration:none; } #nav ul li a div{ height: 5em; width: auto; padding: 1em; background-color: black; } #sandwichwrapper { margin: 2em; border: 1em solid black; } #sidebar { float: right; width: 15em; margin: 2em; border: 1em solid green; } #main { float: right; width: 15em; margin: 2em; border: 1em solid blue; } #comments{ clear: both; margin: 2em; border: 1em solid yellow; } #comment-form{ } footer { clear: both; margin: 0 auto; padding: 1em; background: #000; color: #fff; } /* BUNDLED STYLES */ header, footer{ width:100%; margin:0 auto; padding: 5em; overflow:auto; } nav #sandwich { width: 50em; } /* TEXT RULES */ h1 { size: 10em; color: green; } h2 { size: 8em; } h3 { size: 6em; } h4 { size: 4em; } h5 { size: 2em; } </code></pre> <p><strong>header.php</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;!doctype html&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;The Logic Spot&lt;/title&gt; &lt;link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /&gt; &lt;meta charset="utf-8" /&gt; &lt;!--[if IE]&gt;&lt;script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt; header("Content-type: text/css"); &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="bodywrapper"&gt; &lt;header&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php echo home_url('/')?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php bloginfo('name')?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;/header&gt; &lt;div id="nav"&gt; &lt;?php wp_nav_menu();?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="sandwichwrapper"&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>index.php</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;?php get_header()?&gt; &lt;!--div#bodywrapper contained in header.php--&gt; &lt;!--div#sandwich contained in header.php--&gt; &lt;?php get_sidebar()?&gt; &lt;div id="main"&gt; &lt;?php while(have_posts()): the_post()?&gt; &lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;?php the_permalink()?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php the_title()?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;By &lt;?php echo get_the_author_link();?&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;?php the_content(__('Continue Reading'))?&gt; &lt;?php endwhile?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!--div#sandwich contained in footer.php--&gt; &lt;!--div#bodywrapper contained in header.php--&gt; &lt;?php get_footer()?&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>footer.php</strong></p> <pre><code> &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- close div#sandwichwrapper--&gt; &lt;footer&gt; &lt;?=date('Y')?&gt; Copyright &lt;/footer&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- close div#bodywrapper--&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COWhat do you mean by "my style isn't being recognised"? Where have you put the theme files? Does it show up in the Themes admin page? Is it active?

    2. COAlso, use `get_stylesheet_uri()` to link to your stylesheet, and remove that odd `header("Content-type: text/css");` text from your `<head>` section -- it's not valid HTML, and even if you were to make it PHP, it wouldn't work there anyway. And you should probably add the standard theme hooks, like `wp_head()`, and so on.

    3. COIf you're trying to submit your theme to the wordpress.org directory you might want to take a look at the [theme development standards](http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development). If you're just trying to get it to work; make sure you're linked to it properly.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
