I have had real problems getting the Newspaper theme onto my server and running. I used WP dashboard(appearance-themes- upload theme) and got the response ‘the link you followed is expired’ This happened once the upload reached 100%. I changed the PHP settings to allow larger files and longer to upload, but not luck. WP is fully updated and freshly installed on server.

I then tried using FTP Filezilla to import the theme. However i now have the error on the WP that says:

Newspaper Template is missing. Standalone themes need to have a index.php template file. Child themes need to have a Template header in the style.css stylesheet.

i have tried importing both the Zip and the uncompressed into the Themes folder in WP on my server. WP recognizes that it is there but not usable!

Please can you let e know what i am doing wrong or send me a version that will work!

Many thanks

OK i figured it, the main Zip is buried in the file. I had just assumed that the zip you download is the theme. My bad. Install worked after that 🙂

Thanks
