WordPress theme problems...

I seems to have so many problems this week with this project. It's so close to the finishing line, it's so frustrated to find bugs you don't know how to fix.

I have been building my website project using a local server in my machine (by using MAMP). For the final deliverable, I have to of course upload the site to a host server. I have a hosting with godaddy so I decided to use that instead of the UTS server.

Anyway, the problem started when I uploaded my whole WordPress files onto the server. For some reason, my images won't get uploaded. I have tried changing the permissions, etc. However, on the theme I was using, I was able to upload a header image to replace the blog title. I can upload it in WordPress admin system, I can see the file is uploaded on the server. However, my theme doesn't pick it up! =( I don't know what is going on and how to solve it.

The way around it now as temporary measure, I placed the image using CSS. I slowly has to update all the links which previously pointed to my local server to the new location so it loads up properly.

Anyway, there were still a few issues with the project, which I'm not so sure now if I have time to fix them all. If you're interested, you can view it from: Jade Remedies Website

Any feedback and comments are most welcomed!
