Default downloading themes
Hi. I am using JustHost as my provider and I am trying to download/upload the lifestyle theme I bought. I find the zip file and upload and then the entire thing has an error message. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
Rod

Try FTPing the Unzipped folder to wp-content/themes

You would need an FTP client like Filezilla and FTP access to your server. Then it's just a matter of dragging and dropping just like in explorer. I assume you've tried downloading the file again?

just downloaded filezilla but have never used..not too tech savy.....I only have so many downloads available from studio press so I don't want to screw it up...any thoughts as to why the following message comes up when I upload the theme:
Warning: include_once(lib/theme-options/theme-options.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/thenorm1/public_html/wp-content/themes/chocotheme/functions.php on line 14

Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening 'lib/theme-options/theme-options.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/thenorm1/public_html/wp-content/themes/chocotheme/functions.php on line 14

Fatal error: Class 'wp_option' not found in /home/thenorm1/public_html/wp-content/themes/chocotheme/options/theme-options.php on line 15

Thanks!

Not sure what you mean by only having a certain number of downloads available. You can download the themes as many times as you want from within the forums.

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.
Name Description
Lifestyle Child Theme Template is missing.

Does the above mean that something was wrong from the download? Why would it say this in wordpress?

It means that the theme is missing files or those files are corrupted.
