In addition to having the same name, I think it checks the folder name first for updates. You should also change your folder name if you are planning to distribute publicly, or if this is private, you can exclude it from update checks: http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2009/12/14/excluding-your-plugin-or-theme-from-update-checks/. It would still probably be better to make the names in … Read more
Functions – under the hood While is_user_logged_in() can be used to determine the difference between a guest and a logged in (and therefore registered) user, switch_theme( $stylesheet ) alters actual database entries in the {$wpdb->options} table: update_option( ‘template’, $template ); update_option( ‘stylesheet’, $stylesheet ); update_option( ‘current_theme’, $new_name ); if ( count( $wp_theme_directories ) > 1 … Read more

This method isn’t always fireproof, but you can often look at the source code (right click on white space in the blog), and look for the word “themes.” For instance, in the case of ltty.wordpress.com, this line appears: <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://s2.wp.com/wp-content/themes/pub/inove/style.css?m=1285721595g” type=”text/css” media=”screen” /> The theme is “inove.” A quick Google Search reveals this source: … Read more

First of all differ between the stuff. WP is not CSS and CSS is not WP. But WP themes make use of CSS. So if you learn about CSS you’re basically not doing wrong (good thing with CSS is, it is common between all websites). The other part is HTML. And then you have PHP. … Read more
You are prbebaly using wordpress elements outside the loop and since its a file ou dont access directly from wordpress structure but a file you created yourself you should include <?php require_once(“../../../wp-load.php”); ?> Above the doc type opening tag in sendEMail.php file..
