We just upgraded to 10.3 (thanks Justin) and members are whining about the themes.  We found the themes page on the documentation forum   I can't find any directions for installing a theme.  Are there some somewhere?  Thanks!

Download the theme that you want from Blahdocs.com
Unzip on your local PC
Upload the complete folder to /blahdocs/template
Access the Admin Center - Themes manager and search for new themes.

If you have a .htaccess in /blahdocs try deleting it.
You definately have /blahdocs/template/redonwhite

Nope, no htaccess. GRR no themes i upload will be recognized in admin, however if i rename the theme X2 it shows up? any ideas? it seems rediculous to do it this way and only be able to use one theme

Thanks for helping.

as you can see the redonwhite is on, but like i said i had to rename it to X2

well color me confused, i deserve a kick in the butt. here is what i did.

I wasnt sure where to upload blahdocs to so i uploaded it in cgi-bin AND in my main dir. somehow it works from the cgi bin like the problematic story above. HOWEVER,  when i tried the main dir blahdocs folder, it recognises new themes.

SORRY! although i still think it is interesting! LOL
