Hello Newbie here.
I am really struggling with uploading a theme. I use a webinstall database and I have no idea how to access it. Also I would like to center my logo and add a favicon. Could anyone help?

Let's start with theme installation. I have to assume you have downloaded a ZIP file of the theme you want to install and the theme is compatible with 1.1.14. So...
Admin > Themes and Layout > Install a New Theme > From a file:
Find and upload the ZIP file and click Install!
That should put the theme on your site. Any mods that affect the files in that theme will have to manually edited.

Centering the logo will depend on the themes you are using. Each one is likely different.

For the favicon, simply upload a favicon.ico file that is what you want it to be. No coding required at all. If you need to make one, you can always visit a site like this and make one.
Always be a little kinder than necessary.
