Thanks for the quick reply, Konstantin. I’ll have to try another theme and see if I can reproduce on my server. It was worth asking to see if you’d heard of anything similar.
The troubling part is that it doesn’t happen locally so it could be an environmental (e.g., rights) issue on my server. Maybe there is some script I can run that repairs the rights on my server?
FWIW, I install everything manually. Here is my procedure.
1. Download ZIP file to Mac
2. Unzip ZIP on Mac
3. Tar on Mac
4. SCP to Server in themes
folder
5. Un-Tar on Server
6. Activate
Alas, my server doesn’t have an unzip program.
