    I am relatively new to HTML and coding so I apologize if this is a simple question. I am adding a blog to my website teaching-tiny-tots.com. I successfully installed it and it is up however I wanted to change the template.

    I selected Wasteland from the WP selection, downloaded, unzipped and uploaded to:
    opened wp-content file
    opened theme
    I saw the classic and default folder so I made a new one wasteland and uploaded all the files into it.

    I called GoDaddy and they see the filed uploaded in them as well. Why is the template not showing as an option to switch to it? I can switch between the two default templates.

    Any help greatly appreciated!!

    Make sure you didn't 'nest' the theme in the folder wasteland.

    For example you should find that theme's index.php at:
    "wp-content/themes/wasteland/index.php"

    not at
    "wp-content/themes/wasteland/wasteland/index.php"
