a big WHEW!!!!!!
Fixrunner.com installed a child-theme the correct way - maybe I did something wrong 9 mths. ago, don't know... ANYWAY, it's working, my site is saved, however there is a big issue with the theme, every page/post is empty in WP, so have to see if they can help with that too, otherwise I'll never be able to edit any page/post and that's not good... I also have to fix a few bugs and send them a list of what I can't do myself, but that looks like it's trivial so far...

I promise you and to the world. I will NEVER EVER attempt to move wordpress again! EVER!
I can sleep again, woohoo! :) I will now mark this topic resolved!
