   Upgraded to 2.6 from 2.2.X. Had a custom template I was using for the site, but it defaulted to the default template after the successful upgrade.

   I modified my CSS file to have the comment in the header per here:

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development

   However, while I can see the custom template, I cannot switch to it. The preview window loads with the progress bar, but never finishes loading. I can preview it in default or classic and switch to either one, but my custom template never loads.

   I'm at a complete loss as to what the problem is. Does anyone have any suggestions?

   UPDATE: Also, I think I can safely say it's not the CSS file. I tried copying and pasting the classic style.css file into the custom theme, and it still wouldn't work.

   I too am having a similar problem. I just upgraded to wp2.6, added the yapb plugin, and downloaded the Grain theme. I can't get the theme to install. When I click on it, I get the loading bar for the preview of the theme, but it never finishes so that I can activate it. I can activate other themes.

   Just upgraded to 2.6.3 and tried to add a premium template, New Yorker, by stylewp.com. Uploaded the file folder to themes directory and it doesn't show up in the admin panel at all along with the other themes.

   Wonder if this is the theme's fault of the upgrade....?!

   My bad. Placed the files in an old installation of WP on the server.

   should contact the theme's author. Most 2.2x themes will not render properly on WP 2.6.

   refer http://codex.wordpress.org/Themes/Theme_Compatibility/
   for 2.6 http://codex.wordpress.org/Themes/Theme_Compatibility/2.6

   Premium theme should have their own warranted support go bug them.
