Hi,

I tried uploading my newly purchased theme, uploading the .zip, but then i received the error that it failed and could not be uploaded stating

“Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

Theme installation failed.”

Please advise ASAP.

Hi,

You are probably uploading the whole theme package. You have to upload only the theme zip file, not the whole package which contains other items

Let me know the results!
Thank you!

Thank you, thats right it has been fixed and accepted. But please note the theme looks nothing like the theme i bought at all? I need it to be exactly like it and then from there will edit and move things around. Please advise

Hi ssr300, after you installed the theme, make sure that you activate it and you install a demo you like and then will look like in the way you want.
You can our demos live here and install the one you like the most -> https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/select_demo_newspaper/?utm_source=live_preview&utm_medium=click&utm_campaign=demos&utm_content=demos_button#demos
Let me know the results!
Thank you!

Hi Calin,

Thank you for the response. I believe your right I have not done those steps; however in my screen it does not show me any of the the options such as activate theme or install demo etc. It only shows under the Newspaper dashboard 3 tabs Welcome, Plugins and Support. So I cannot activate or install the demo. Thanks
