OK, let’s check the obvious things first. You upload a theme to a new folder in the Themes folder. Did you do this? When you have done that, the theme should become visible in the admin display page. Reload if necessary.

If not, it is time to ask again, but not to copy files from another theme.

Regards,

Karel

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

Name Description
Human Condition]-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= */ Template is missing.

betty, you must have a 1.2 “style” as opposed to a 1.5 theme.

You can use the 1.2 styles with the “classic” theme in 1.5, but on its own, it will not work in 1.5.
