12,623 PointsStyles still not applying?
I did the exact same steps as in the previous videos (of this course) and this video, and my styles are still not updated. Thus, my website still look pretty much like on the first minutes of the related video. What can be wrong with my code?
I uploaded the code here http://pastebin.com/HHj8D27t because if I add it directly here it will destroy the whole website (probably a bug).

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden)
Basically, it's a permissions issue. Something I keep running into since I started learning wordpress.
While in the themes folder I entered chmod -R 775 treehouse-portfolio/ Now the css styles show up but the Javascript is still not being applied properly.
Update:
It's the not the JS that was the problem, it was the fact I didn't copy paste the entire css document to style.css that was the problem. Now it's working.
