Try clearing your sites cache from the dashboard settings. Can you post the contents of description.txt ?

ob7dev,

I have cache turned off as the video instructed, and I also just Cleared Cache as you suggest.
No difference - not showing my theme but it has been showing this from the start:

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\cocoartf1348\cocoasubrtf170

{\fonttbl\f0\froman\fcharset0 TimesNewRomanPSMT;}

Don't know - looks like some odd theme from somewhere else.
What do you think?

That's the content of your description.txt file.

Have a look at other themes for the proper structure. The name of the theme goes on the first line and a description of the theme is on the second line.

The name of the folder is 'porto', not 'portal'. Like tallacman, I was able to install the theme as is by copying the 'porto' folder in your zip file into 'root/application/themes'

Upload your zipped theme here and we'll fix it for you (if possible).

Hi tallacman,
OK I'll try again - have tried several times - it's 11mb .zip may be too large for this forum.
Can I drop it in dropbox for you or some other way you suggest?
attached again.

Got it.

You have this:
namespace Application\Theme\luethypartner;

but your theme folder is named 'theme'

Therefore your code should read:

namespace Application\Theme\Theme;

it describes the path to the theme.

If you rename your folder to 'luethypartner'
You'd use namespace Application\Theme\Luethypartner;
CamelCase

so this would work also:
If you rename your folder to 'luethy_partner'
You'd use namespace Application\Theme\LuethyPartner;

Hmm - not seeing luethypartner anywhere in the directory structure.
tried changing to that but no difference.
Here is what the (Bluehost) server has:
subdomain in public_html:
rickardCMS/application/themes/portal
my theme files are in “portal”
the concrete5 installation folders are in rickardCMS
attributes - authentication - blocks - bootstrap - config - controllers - elements - files - jobs - languages - mail - page_templates - single_pages - themes - tools - views - idex.html

the current structure of the theme indicates it should be in your Applications folder > Themes folder. Then it will show up in the themes dashboard page. It installed on my local machine.

WillzShire replied on Apr 9, 2016 at 5:56 pm Permalink Reply

Yes that is the structure.
I see this as a theme available to install:

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\cocoartf1348\cocoasubrtf170

{\fonttbl\f0\froman\fcharset0 TimesNewRomanPSMT;}

this is what install in the dashboard sees - shouldn't it read my .txt file and the .png thumb?
I must have something incorrect in there. Dashboard is reading it as above instead.

Ahh! Finally I got it now. It was the description.txt file that was the problem. Because I'm on Mac using text editor - changed preferences to be plain text etc. Now my theme is showing up.

Next I have to learn how to add in all my pages and convert them to work with the CMS.

Thank you for all your help
