  • FTP to your host, go into your folder where your blog is, then find for wp-content foler, then open the themes folder and just upload the folder of the theme (after extraction) there. Then go to your WordPress admin > Themes and find the name of the theme and activate it.

    Thanks I needed this

    Y’all keep using the term “upload” the theme to the themes folder. Not sure why you use upload, I had to copy them there, as there is no upload link or anything after I unzipped the files. I unzipped, then copied the folder with all the files to the content/themes folder. Still, when I click “change theme”, nothing but the two boring classic and default. This is SO FRUSTRATING!

    I have a similar problem In my /wp-content/themes folder I have the classic and default. In my sites admin panel under presentation/themes I have other themes avaiable (communication,corporate, graffiti, granite, lifestyle) but do not see those folders under /wp-content/themes.

    Any ideas?

    thanks.

    perhaps you uploaded them to a wrong folder?can happen really fast, I assure you, Anakin^^
    download the theme(s) you want once more
    (don′t use the folder already on your desktop or whatever, maybe you had a download error in that)
    unzip and upload the unzipped folder via ftp to your wp-content/themes folder, check if they are exactly in there!, go back to your backend and try to activate…
    sometimes you do have some error in downloading or uploading and just doing the same thing once again solves the problem…
