I tried the upload on a desktop computer at the church I attend, it worked fine. I use smartftp at church to upload files. The method I was using at church was to manually create the directories in my website control panel and then upload just the files themselves to the directories. This worked fine. I then tried to uplaod the whole theme folder intact and it worked great as well. So, no problem with uploading themes on the computer at church.

When I got home I tried the same process, I manually created the directories, then uploaded just the files, but with no success. All I would get is the file names but no content, each file size would read 0kb. So, it has to be a problem with my laptop. Oh, by the way I have been using filezilla on my laptop.

I don’t know if this may be relevant, but for about 2 months now I have been unable to get smartftp to connect to my website. I then tried internet explorer ftp and it would always try to connect aynomusly, I had to click on file tab and click “login as” to get it to connect. So, the problem with smartftp is that it will not let me switch off the aynomous ftp. Now, you nay ask, why mention this? Well I didn’t have this problem till I upgraded from smartftp 1.5 to 2.0. So, my question is this, could something have been changed in my port settings when I upgraded to smartftp 2.0 that is affecting my ability to do FTP transfers?

I know that I will most likey have to ask the smartftp techs this question, but if anyone has any ideas here I would appreciate any suggestions.

I have a gateway laptop running windows xp home edition, with windows firewall and avg as my virus protection.

By, the way, I tried turning of my firewall, but it made no differance.

Well, I tried to upload the files in my websites file manger, the files are there, the data is there, I viewed the datat with the editor, but still nothing in the preview box in the presentation widow.

All the premissions are at 644 after uploading, I changed them to 755, which is the same as the two themes that come with wordpress, so I’m at frustrated again…arrrggghhhh…lol

Yes, I am able to switch back to the two themes that come with the program. I have tried 3 new thmes so far, “green-marinee”, “stucco”, and “ocadia”. I get back in my menu by the back button on my browser, all I get with the new themes is a blank preview box in the presentation menu and a blank screeen on my blog page.

At first I was haveing the “no style sheet present” problem, but I fixed that. I was making a mistake when I unziped the file and then uploaded one to many levels, but I can’t figure out what is wrong now. Thanks for the reply.

P.S. I maintain another website that has an older version of WordPress, I think it’s 1.5, and I had no problems with uploading and changing themes.
