Hi there,

I’m having issues uploading/activating the Newspaper theme. Every time that I upload the zip file into WP, I get given the message:

Are you sure you want to do this?

Please try again.

Having run WP 4.4.2, I downgraded to 4.4.1 (as that’s the latest version this theme seems to support), but am getting the same problems.

Have also tried to upload the theme manually over FTP, but it’s not appearing in my Themes menu options for me to activate, so any thoughts or suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Make sure you download clean copy from themeforest, and UNZIP on your PC properly, then upload THAT folder via FTP to your hosting account.

Note, you should make sure you’re using latest version of WP, as recent versions still had some nasty security issues ! 4.41 also introduced bug in pagination fixed in WP 4.42.

Your system might have a max upload size issue with zip, or time out issue — both of which can be changed in your hosting theme panel or php.ini.
