    I just purchased a wordpress theme and was installing it in my wp-admin. I received the following error message
    “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
    Theme installation failed.”
    Please help ??

    Please make sure that the zip file contains the root folder of the theme.
    I guess you downloaded all the files and documentation and not the installable wordpress theme. So you need to extract first the theme zip file and look for the installable zip file.

    I installed the following zip file

    arya-business-amp-e-commerce-wordpress-theme-theme-files.zip

    To clarify, I am to unzip this file and look for the installable zip file?

    Yes. Most of the time the installable file is just the same as the name of the theme.
