Problem with WordPress on my local PC!

  • Hi Everyone,

    I have installed the WordPress on my loca PC and when I click on “Add Theme”, I get the following message:

    An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with www.remarpro.com or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums.

    Does anyone know what I ned to do?

    Thanks a lot,
    Jay

  • A common issue with localhost websites is that you probably don’t have an FTP service (daemon). IMHO barely a problem.
    EITHER
    add this to your wp-config.php file:
    define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
    OR
    just copy / unzip whatever the files yourself, easy to do with themes and plugins, not so convenient with updates.

    Hi RossMitchell,

    Thank you so much for the help.

    I added the code you suggested and I don’t get that message anymore!.

    However, I was trying to upload a zipped Theme but I am getting the following message:

    —-
    Are you sure you want to do this?
    Please try again.

    Do you have any idea what I need to do.

    FYI: I have Windows 7 and downloaded WAMP for 64-bit operating system.

    Thank you again!

    To install the new theme, just install the files from the zip archive into the directory “/wp-content/themes/” The zip archive will create a directory there. No need to “upload” as such, the files are going to your own computer.

    Thanks for help.

    I only have problem with uploading the zip file of Virtue Theme. I tried other themes and no issue with them.

    I guess there is an issue with Virtue Theme.

    Thanks again.

    Cheers!
