Any time I try to upload a theme one of two things happens. Either it sits at “Installing theme” or I get the error
"Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 10 seconds exceeded in /home/a5188566/public_html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 187
Anyone have any ideas about how to fix this or where I need to look?
Thanks! Jim

Where did you download this theme from?
It doesn’t seem to matter where I get the theme from. I have tried 5 different themes getting theme from different places.
However, I found a workaround. I just unzip the theme and upload it to the themes folder.
Not ideal but I can get everything done that way.
