I am able to see your website now. I see you did little customizations. With Enlightenment you are able to have a dark Navbar, change the background and customize the typography, you can even use any font from the Google directory.
Can you elaborate a little about what you have in mind when you say customizable graphically? What do you mean by boxy in comparison to Pinboard and what do you feel is not properly aligned?
Here are the steps to host WordPress locally:
- First you need to install a local server. Try XAMPP if you’re on Windows or MAMP if you’re on Mac.
- After installing you’ll have an “htdocs” directory where you can transfer the files from your live server.
- Export your live server’s database in phpMyAdmin to an SQL file.
- Open the SQL file in a text editor and do a search/replace of “http://bcr8tive.com/” with “http://localhost/”.
- Import the SQL file in phpMyAdmin of your local server.
- Open wp-config.php and and point to the new database.
