    Hi,

    I have installed WordPress (version 3.0.1) on my virtual machine which does not have Internet connection.

    I would like to experiment with different free themes/plugins available for my research purposes.

    Can I download them (themes/plugins) separately and then install them manually into my copy of WordPress running on my virtual machine?

    Appreciate your help.

    Yes you can.

    Download the theme from anywhere on the web then put the folder inside wp-content –> themes
    Same goes for plugins. download them from wordpress plugin directory or anywhere else and put the plugin folder inside wp-content –> plugins

    Thats it! Themes and plugins will be able to activation on the admin panel after that

    Thanks! I’m on my way to speed up with WordPress 3, I will come back for more discussion once I have a better idea of how WordPress3 engine works… Have a nice day.
