    Hi – first off would like to say beautiful theme! I’ve managed to create exactly what I need on my local installation of WordPress. I’ve now moved the site to Bluehost (SQL parameters changed to reflect new domain) and changed wp-config.php so almost all is working. However, quite a few things aren’t working properly in the theme admin console (one example is the header image tries to load the header from http://localhost/ still). Is there a configuration in the theme I’ve missed or do I just have to grep through my files and replace the localhost string? Thanks!

    Hey Alexander – firstly I’ve enjoyed reading your tutorials so thanks for giving so much to the Pinboard community. My website would creating experience would have taken so much longer without your tutorials.

    I actually found that link before, but the only thing it doesn’t mention is an extra step at the end, which is required to fix any links in your posts from http://localhost/artistic-touch/ to http://www.artistic-touch.co.uk.

    I ended up using the WordPress plugin “Search Regex”, which was really simple to use and it fixed all my links very quickly! I hope this is useful for others.
