| by EviLIcY on 2010/9/4 12:02:58 Thanks for the replies, I did have the zip file extracted and uploaded to the proper directory with out any nested folders. I select the theme in preferences. Than go to the home page and the themes don't seem to want to work. I been trying to install rayan-black and astro2. I tried at least three four other themes and run into the same problem. My cache folder appears to be empty. Right now I have it set to rayan-black here is my site so you can see what I mean :| http://wyrd.rules-all.com/ -Edit- I think the permissions might be messed up xD I'll get back and let you guys now. Feel stupid hehe... yeah that was it. I changed them earlier and tried but must of been server lag and didn't actually change. Anyways working now thanks again! |

| by Peekay on 2010/9/4 10:46:55 Make sure the unpacked zip file doesn't contain several nested folders. Only the single folder with 'theme.html' in it should go into the Xoops 'themes' folder. In Xoops administration, choose 'system/preferences/general settings' and you should see the theme name appear in the 'selectable themes' field. You need to control-click on the theme(s) to highlight them, then set a default theme, or activate the 'themes' block to allow users to choose a theme. Standard troubleshooting procedures are to delete the contents of the 'smarty_cache', 'smarty_compile' and 'xoops_cache' folders in xoops_data/caches (the files will be automatically rebuilt). Then open 'system/modules' and 'update' the system module by pressing the small 'box' icon with a green light. The only time you might get a non-styled page is if you access your Xoops site from another PC on a local network. The theme won't work if any of the paths in mainfile.php are set to 'localhost' rather than the server PC's actual DHCP address (e.g. 192.168.*.*). HTH |

| by ghia on 2010/9/4 9:47:10 You must unpack the theme archive on your PC and then upload it to your server. There it must be proper aligned, so you have /themes/mynewtheme/theme.html After that enable it and/or select it in the preferences. Which theme are you trying to install? |
| Themes won't work |
| by EviLIcY on 2010/9/4 8:26:05 I'm running xoops 2.45 fresh install. No mods. Everytime I download a theme (from here) none of them will work. Pretty much just get a white page and non-styled links. ??? I tried several different ones none will work. Only ones I can get to work is the default and the other that came with the install. |
