Re: general info

[Sebastian Zartner]

Firebug is a client tool, therefore it does not have access to the scripts on the server. All it knows about the source, where the HTML came from, is the URL you accessed.
In case of WordPress the blog posts are saved in a database, so you need to search them via WordPress itself.
If you want to edit the files of WordPress itself, please read their docs. If you then still have questions, you should post to their forum.

perhaps i did not explain myself clear enough

 

what i meant is that i ogtne find through firebug some part of code that are what i need to modify my website

if i change value in the firebug window they effectively produce result

the problem is that..ho do i understand form the various firebug Windows and indication, where the fiel that contain that code is?

where do i actually can go to modify permamnetly that code?for css is clear enough, but for all the code whichj is shoiwn on the left pane it is not clear

It was clear enough. But it seems my explanation wasn't. So here's an example:
When you access http://codex.wordpress.org/New_To_WordPress_-_Where_to_Start the server returns some HTML. Firebug can show you that HTML output e.g. inside the Net panel. Though it can not tell you how this HTML was generated because it doesn't have access to the files on the server.

You have to log in to your WordPress admin. There you should be able to change that code. Unfortunately I don't know about WordPress enough to tell you where you can modify its code. Though this is something you can read in the WordPress documentation.
