 * I am brand-spanking-new to WP. John Chow just installed it on my site for me.
   I have joined ElegantThemes.com and have attempted to install the ‘anticipated’
   theme. However, when doing so, I receive the following errors:
 * Unpacking the package …
    Installing the theme… Theme installed successfully.
 * Warning: fopen(/home/cftech1/public_html/wp-content/themes/AnticipatePlugin/style.
   css) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/
   cftech1/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4284
 * Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/cftech1/
   public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4287
 * Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/
   cftech1/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4290
 * I confirmed that the wp-includes folder has write and execute permissions.
 * Any help is greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks,
    Brian

 * The zip file you got has some other files and folders and one of then is the 
   theme folder upload that to wp-content/themes folder you may have plugins folder
   you need to upload the content in plugins folder.
 * the other files and folder may be are instructions to how to use the them .

 * Thanks for the reply govpatel. Unzipping locally shows the following contents:
 * Folders:
    css images js psd
 * Files:
    anticipate-maintenance-page.php anticipate-maintenance-plugin.php changelog.
   txt license.txt readme
 * Not certain where to upload these folders/files to myself manually to ensure 
   all works as expected. Thoughts?

 * I believe I may have figure out the problem. Technically, this is a “Plugin” 
   and not a theme (even though it was among the ‘themes’ section/list on ElegentThemes.
   com). I’ll try again uploading as a Plugin. Sorry for my confusion.
