Not able to install Featurist theme.

Permalink
Hi There,

I downloaded concrete 5 and installed it on my local server.
iam running xampp.

I purchased the featurist theme and tried installing it this way
http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/installation/how-to-insta...

but after going to "pages and themes"
Under available themes
I see a folder with no name and no description.
See attached screen shot.

It also shows an error saying missing default.php and view.php upon installation.

It must be something simple but iam not able to figure it out.

A theme from the marketplace (like Featurist) is packaged and should be installed in the Packages folder instead of directly in the Themes folder. It then is activated first under the "Add Functionality" tab in your dashboard before it is accessible in the "pages and themes" tab.
Hope this helps :-)

manotron,
See this tutorial on how to install themes/add-ons from the marketplace:
http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/how_to_install_add_ons_and_the...

Also, any questions/problems about an item bought/downloaded from the marketplace should be posted in the Support section for that item (see the Support link in the sidebar of the item's detail page). That way the developer will see it and be able to respond to it.

Featurist's support area is here:

P.S. Thanks for purchasing!
