Hi - When you say to replace the css with the project downloads in the style.css, what are the project downloads?

Where are the project downloads that are supposed to be put into the style.css page?

Hi Lolo (cool name by the way),

I'm not sure how much experience you have with .zip files.

If you scroll below the video you will see "downloads." Click on it and beneath that you will see "Project files." Select it and it will prompt you to download a .zip file. When you do it will most likely appear in your downloads folder on your computer.

At this point, I recommend creating a new, empty file and name it after the course it pertains to, and one you will recognize for later use. When you are prompted , select browse and choose the file that you created. Then click extract. Open the files from Workspaces or whichever editor you are using.

If you need more help, you can do a search in the forum. Most issues are already addressed there.

Best of luck.

Ya know what's weird is that the style.css file that's in the downloaded .zip ONLY contains this:

/*
Theme Name: Bootstrap to WordPress
Theme URI: http://wptreehouse.com/from-bootstrap-to-wordpress
Author: Zac Gordon
Author URI: http://wp.zacgordon.com/
Description: Example theme for Treehouse course on how to convert static Bootstrap site into dynamic WordPress theme
Version: 1.0
License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
Text Domain: bootstrap-to-wp

This theme, like WordPress, is licensed under the GPL.
Use it to make something cool, have fun, and share what you've learned with others.
*/

So all of that CSS that Zac posted at 1:50 is definitely NOT in the project downloads
