• My theme is missing on the Manage Themes Page (Dashboard <Appearance <Themes). Below the list of themes on this page, it says:

    Broken Themes
    The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.
    Name: Reworked Firebug 2
    Description: Template is missing.

    I know what a style sheet is and have it, uploaded it. I’m so basic I don’t know what a template is. What file name(s) is/are this “template,” how/where do I find this template, and where do I put it (which folder/ss)? This is serious because right now I have no access to my site that I have developed for many months.

    Clues on maybe how this happened. Someone in the past worked on the Firebug theme, said some of it was still left but most was new. (I do not have access to this person.) I moved a copy of it into my themes, and renamed it, so I could develop another version of it. I think I noticed that WP said for the second copy, that it relied on the first copy for something. Was tiring to figure all that out, so I deleted the second copy. Since I deleted the second copy, I cannot see even the first copy. Or was it that I renamed things before I deleted…I don’t know, but I think it was the deletion of the first second file (the copy) that wrecked things. But presently the Firebug theme folder is renamed “Reworked Firebug 2” in my files at my hosting site, and also at the top of my style.css sheet where it has the name and author (I put “anon”) of the theme.

    The person who worked the original Firebug theme and changed wrote “test” as the title of the it at the top of the style.css. But it was still then in the “firebug” folder.
