  • Is this premium theme if so you need to unzip the file and just install theme.

    Try re-uploading the theme zip file once more.

    will the winzip program do the job. I tried it already, however on tools import the response was “not an XML page …”
    The template is from The Turning Gate who states it is WP compatible and is generated from Adobe LR.

    on tools import the response was “not an XML page …”

    that is not the way to add themes;

    you add new themes from dashboard – appearance – themes – install themes

    And when I follow the procedure I get “The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

    Name Description
    CE2_pages Stylesheet is missing.”
    Which leads me back to the original question “style sheet missing..”

    what is the download link for that theme?

    some themes have nested folders, and need to be specially unzipped before uploading; or you might need to use ftp to upload those themes.

    The link for the download is here: http://theturninggate.net/2012/07/typewritten-ce2-theme/

    And the template does not come as a zip .. it goes to lightroom and you put the pages together and then you use FTP to upload. A question I have is if I use winzip to make a zip and then move that to wp-content ..themes on the host ..will it work?

    This doesn’t look like a WordPress theme. What’s the output after you put it through lightroom?

    I can not seem to get a snippit to copy here. There are folders and files I will type the names for now:

    Folders-
    Fragments
    Galleries
    Photos
    Phplugins
    Resources
    Thumbnails
    Others-
    About
    Autoindex
    Contact
    Gallerie
    Index
    Contact
    Services

    Are there PHP files and CSS files?

    Where did you get the impression that this is a WordPress theme?

    From these instructions:
    Whether or not you mean to blog is a personal decision. For CampagnaPictures.com, I choose to have a blog. And so I poke on over to WordPress.org to download the latest version of WordPress. I then follow WordPress’ famous 5-minute installation guide to install my blog at http://campagnapictures.com/blog/.

    Take note of that address, specifically that I am installing WordPress into a sub-folder of my domain: /blog/. This is our recommended procedure when creating a website to incorporate both WordPress and TTG elements.

    The first step of this process necessitates that I create a database. To do this, I log into my Bluehost control panel, scroll down to the “Databases” section of icons, and choose “MySQL Databases”. If you’re not using Bluehost and are unsure how to create a database for your site, contact your host for assistance or consult their online knowledgebase.

    Create a new database, then create a user for that database. After creating the user, remember to Add the user to the database! If your user and database are disconnecting, you won’t be able to login. Make note of your database name, and your user’s username and password. Write this stuff down! You will have need of it momentarily.

    Proceed with the WordPress setup. It’s well documented, so there is no need for me to here explain the process in great detail. You will need to add your database name, username and password to the wp-config.php file as a part of the setup process.

    After authorizing the wp-config.php file to access your database and copying the WordPress files to your /blog/ folder, you should then visit http://yourdomain.com/blog/ in your web-browser to start setting things up. It’s all pretty self explanatory, but you will probably want to disable the “Privacy: Allow my site to appear in search engines like Google and Technorati” item to begin with. We’re still in the design process, so we don’t really want Google to be sending people to our site-under-construction. We can change this setting later from within our WordPress setup, so disable it for now.

    Finish the installation wizard, then login to your WordPress dashboard. We need to make some changes to our settings.

    Is this what you bought?

    As it’s a premium theme, you should seek support from them directly. They would know best about their product.

    Thanks for your support … I still am not happy with the way “they” support. Seems as though one needs tobe familiar with web building and know “code”.
    However
    Thanks
