 * Hi I am trying to download a widget called smart you tube and when i unzip it
   i downloads as a nested file, how can i make it so it does not download as a 
   nested file? i have tried to unzip it different ways and i is still nested.
 * i have been looking at this tutorial [http://www.village-idiot.org/archives/2008/06/13/how-to-upload-a-wordpress-theme/](http://www.village-idiot.org/archives/2008/06/13/how-to-upload-a-wordpress-theme/)
   
   on how to upload and there she says the file can not be nested and so true i 
   can not see in in my wordpress back office so to say.
 * thanks

 * You can’t. But you don’t have to upload exactly what you unzip. Upload the folder
   within the unzipped folder that contains the files.

 * Even if you unzip a nested file, just copy the basic folder inside and paste 
   it outside the nest. The “unnested” folder is what you will upload to your plugins
   folder in wp-content.
