 * Some themes have the theme folder inside a wrapper folder. Check to see if you
   need to extract a folder from your theme folder by putting that inner folder 
   in the themes folder.

 * right now I have themes/classic/default/disciple
 * Disciple is the theme not showing in the theme editor drop down and is the one
   I want to install.
 * should all the disciple php files be shown listed in the default folder rather
   than inside the disciple folder?Right now disciple has it’s own subfolder.
 * Thanks.

 * Nested folders? As in /wp-content/themes/**themefolder/themefolder**/themefiles?

 * Hi
 * You have installed the disciple them into the wrong folder. It does not belong
   inside the default folder. It wants to be in wp-content/themes/

 * 1) Do you see style.css in your theme folder using an FTP program?
    If not, its
   not in the right place.
 * 2) if so, type the url to your theme folder style sheet into your browser
 * {domain.com}/{wp folder}/wp-content/themes/{themefoldername}/style.css
 * Are you seeing the stylesheet displayed?
 * If not, the browser is not seeing it for some reason.
