There isn’t a wp-content/templates folder. There’s a wp-content/themes folder.
What version of wp are you using? If you actually have a templates folder that sounds like a REALLY old version….
No, it’s not correct. You have them installed in:
http://homedesignsense.com/blog/wp-content/themes/1024px-10/1024px-10/
That is not according to the directions. The theme files (index.php, header.php, style.css, etc.) should be located inside:
http://homedesignsense.com/blog/wp-content/themes/1024px-10/
I deleted the all the theme files (except th classic and default) and just uploaded ‘1024px’ using ftp. I went into blog/wp-content/themes and uploaded.
I followed your directions and still stylesheet missing. Unless fpt core is uploading a second version of 1024px?
The version is 2.0.3 for my host site Bluehost in their Fantastico cpanel.
John –
your theme is *still* in the wrong directory. You still have 2 “1024” folders:
wp-content/themes/1024px-10/1024px-10/
If you’re using FTP, then do this:
Connect to your sever.
Direct yourself to the “wp-content/themes/1024px-10/1024px-10/”.
Delete both “1024px-10” folders.
Surf yourself – on the server – to the “wp-content/themes” folder. There should be NO “1024px-10” folder there.
On your hard drive, find your downloaded copy of the 1024px theme.
Make sure you’re at the “1024px” folder – and BE SURE there’s not another “1024px” folder *inside* that one. If there is, go to the one that’s inside.
Upload it into your “themes” folder. You FTP tree should now have *one* “1024px-10” folder in it. If you double-click on it to open it, and there’s another “1024px-10” folder in there, start over. You should be able to open up the themes/1024px-10 folder and see files: style.css, index.php, that sort of thing. NOT another folder.
I’m guessing your downloaded copy has a secondary tier in there, and when you upload, it’s uploading both folders. You don’t want that – you want your file tree to look like so:
/wp-content/themes/1024px-10/
It doesn’t. There’s another folder *inside* that initial one that’s the same name, thus screwing things up.
You are right. I guess when they were unzipped it created an outside folder. I deleted the outside folder and saved the ones ith the files. Will let you know.
Thanks. It was the old folder-in-a-folder trick! Never thought, but I guess un-zipping it caued the extra folder.
The themes are fine and available for me to use.
Everyone. Thanks for all your help…and especially your patience!
Yay! I guess I *did* help a little bit (never would have noticed, though, if it weren’t for Sam, up there 🙂 )
Well, good! Glad you got it sorted…. how about marking it resolved, then?
Nonsense doodlebee, you rock. Your css is +2 ;’)

Thanks, Yeah.. I thought they would be a nice and easy way to show people how to do those things. =) 😉 *Alot* easier then having to explain it all the time lol..plus, it’s right there in an image for an easy look-see.. =) 😉
Like the old expression, “some pictures mean more than a thousand words”..well, I think this is a perfect example. LOL! Also, If I happen to move them, which I highly doubt.. I’ll let everyone know about it ok.. =) 😉
