    Tried to install atomic-blocks-plugin.1.2.5.zip, was told “The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”

    Tried to install atomic-blocks-theme.2.1.0.zip, was told “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

    @ecnalg let’s see if we can get you fixed up. Can you describe the exact steps you’re taking to install them?

    Thanks, John,

    I downloaded them from your website to my computer, then tried to upload/install them in the normal way, which produced the errors.

    Someone elsewhere suggested adding them from the wp-admin dashboard, without downloading, and that worked perfectly.

    On a related note, since Gutenberg is built into WP now, do we really need to install a Gutenberg plugin also, to make use of your products?

    Thanks for the update. Glad to hear you got them installed. Sounds like maybe your browser was automatically unzipping the files after downloading. That happens by default in Safari, and perhaps other browsers. It can be disabled in Safari under Preferences > General > Open “safe” files after downloading.

    You do not need the Gutenberg plugin now. You can remove it. We’re in the process of updating the docs and such to remove that text.
