How to Build a WordPress Theme - downloading exercise files

For each chapter of the course I'm downloading the exercise files, but I'm not sure where to put them. For chapter 4 I copied the entire unzipped WP installation into the allisongrayce.com root folder, but now things aren't behaving quite right. The php files are correct, but I'm getting 404s on all but the home page. How and where do I place the exercise files for each chapter? Thanks.

Hi! These files are meant for reference so that as you code along with the videos you can check to see if your code is correct or copy and paste certain segments. This code isn't really meant to just be drag and dropped into your site.

However, to find the theme files go to wp-content > themes > wpportfolio
