Support » Themes and Templates » Theme install failed due to missing stylesheet?

  • I’ve downloaded this theme: Construct – Responsive HTML5/CSS3 Template http://themeforest.net/item/construct-responsive-html5css3-template/2839226, but can’t upload it to my existing WordPress account. When I upload it says:
    “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

    Theme install failed.”

    but I can see a style.css file in the folder.
    Any idea why this isn’t working?
    I’ve messaged the designer, squidix, and left a message on the comment page for the theme.
    If you can’t help, can you direct me to someone who can?
    I’m stumped, and haven’t had anyone reply to me yet.

    Generally speaking the theme’s zip file should have what you need, including the formatted style.css file. We don’t have access to that theme (nor want access) and we do not support commercial themes here.

    Please continue to contact the theme author for instructions on how to install that theme. Part of the fee you paid was for support and you’re asking something very basic.

    Check that the theme’s folder isn’t inside nested folders. Other than that, you’ll need to seek support from the theme’s vendors.

    Hey Belonging,

    It sounds like you’ve uploaded the entire ZIP file that you downloaded from ThemeForest. You actually need to open that ZIP file first, and inside you can find the theme’s ZIP file itself, and most likely some documentation to help you find it.

    We have a video on our knowledgebase here that will help you out: http://support.envato.com/index.php?/Live/Knowledgebase/Article/View/269/0/my-wordpress-theme-isnt-working-what-should-i-do

    If you’re still having issues, feel free to contact the theme’s author through their ThemeForest profile page: http://themeforest.net/user/squidix

    Good luck! 🙂
