Can't upload themes to my WP blog (3 posts)

    I've been trying all day to upload a theme to my site.

    http://kaiposcents.com

    It shows that it was uploaded in my BlueHost cPanel but it doesn't transfer to my WP Admin or my site. I've also posted my problem at Blue Host because I really don't know where I made the error at.

    Thanks for any and all help!

    I'm sure you followed the instructions (i.e. uploaded to the correct, folder, etc.)? What I noticed myself a few times that WP doesn't recognise a theme when it is in /themename/themename/files. Be sure when you extract a theme that you don't double the theme folder.

    and that suggests you did not upload it properly. there is a theme's index.php in THAT directory :P

    and here's the theme's css:

    http://kaiposcents.com/wp-content/themes/style.css

    you need to put all of those files inside a directory named stitched or something.

    Fwiw, another often seen problem is that people rename their theme directories and end up with spaces in the directory names.

    "my theme", for instance, used as a theme direcotory will break things 99.999999% of the time due to the spaces, where "mytheme" will not.
