Hello,

 

Whichever Simple press theme I try to install WordPress delivers a message – ‘Are you sure yoy want to do this?’

I click retry several times but returns to the same message

Don’t tell me please I shouldnt have installed the latest wordpress version 3.6.1?  :)

Everything else seems ok

not sure what you comment on wp version means…

can you please explain what you mean by installing sp theme?  the actions taken?  are you trying to upload a theme?  via the sp installer (not wp)?

Ok under Forums, Themes, Theme Uploader  I choose a SP theme zip file, click on Upload.

This takes me to the WordPress intsall screen where it asks for the FTP password.

Entered FTP password  then get the message:

 ”Are you sure yoy want to do this?” Please try again?

On the address bar the following url is showing –

http://www.itsnotrocketsalad.co.uk/wp-admin/update.php?action=upload-sp-theme&package=93&_wpnonce=d52697f3eb

Tried stacked.zip and unified.zip

I guess I am puzzled…  that is wp normally wanting a nonce…  no reason why, its already in the url…

can you upload wp themes in the wp uploader?

you can of course upload the themes via ftp too…  unzip them and upload to wp-content/sp-resources/forum-themes
