  • you need to increase the size in the php.ini. You may have to ask your host for help doing this.

    Or you could use FTP to upload the theme to the theme’s folder.

    You can also use the file manager provided by your host.

    Let us know if you are sorted @trnghosh

    Are you saying this is an issue on your local PC using WAMP? In that case you should be able to just unzip the theme and then move it into the wp-content/themes folder.

    Hi trnghosh,

    What juggledad meant was you can upload the files through the file manager your host provides you with.

    You can also get the FTP access details from the host to transfer all the files there.

    You will need to upload the theme files to:
    public_html/www -> wp-content -> themes

    There you will unzip the file and the theme will be visible under the themes tab in your WordPress dashboard.

    @xyno – NO if he is running this site locally he can MOVE the files to the proper location on his PC – please don’t try explaining what I mean when you don’t bother to understand what I said.

    Sorry @juggledad I meant to mention @kmessinger and not you. See your reply came after mine. Sorry didnt mean to offend you ??

    Correction… didnt see your reply.

    Hello

    juggledad

    I think you understand my problem. I think you are right in saying how to upload the themes. Now where should I upload the plugins ? There is folder in the wp-content/plugins , do I create one folder inside the plugins folder and upload all the plugins files there ?
    Say I want to use “ABC” plugins so , do I make a folder at wp-content/plugins named “ABC” and upload all the files of this plugins to there.

    Is that work for me locally?

    Once again thanks for your reply.

    when you unzip a plugin, it will create a folder with the plugin code in it. Just move the folder into the wp-content/plugins folder
