Sandbox

i somehow muddled my way through installing j! and a free template on my website, although it ended up not being in my root directory, so i'll have to move it when i'm done... now...

i can't for the life of me understand how to edit the template. i want to move a button that says "read more" from where it is now to the space right after the last word of the content (right now it's below the "last updated" stat). can i use the default wysiwyg editor to so things like that? if so, how do you get to it? i understand a little html (just enough to fiure out what to cut and paste), but this css stuff is way above me.

you can see the site for a visual reference of what i'm talking about here:

Start by getting Colorzilla and Web Developer extensions for Firefox. Mouse over or click on the elements you want to change, and they should give you a clue as where to begin looking. With Web Developer, click on information and select Div Order and/or Element Information, then click on the item. Most template changes are in templatecss.css which also can be accessed through the template manager in the admin backend. I prefer to use an ftp client and a good text editor.

When I started, I would download a copy of the file, try my changes, then upload the file. If it worked great. If it didn't, I would undo my changes upload the file  to restore and try again.

Good idea to back up the site before you do so--just in case.
