Hi

I can’t find any attachment here. Try to attache the image again , also provide more details about this issue and maybe I can help you. However the plugins are managed by WordPress not by the theme so it might be a problem related with your host or the source from which you try to download the plugin.

Thanks!

Looks like perhaps your directory is not writable or a server mis-configuration at hosting level. Theme doesn’t manage plugin install, WP does.

Best way to install plugins is actually download from the WordPress.org repo, then install via FTP on your site.

Hi,


@vikasabhi2003
– Check the permissions on your wordpress folders and files, you can read about this here – https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
Also check if this happens with a default theme (ex. Twenty Twelve)

Thank you!
