How to upload a Theme

[Mark Hesseling]

Dear All,

A friend of my uploaded Prestashop. Now I would like to change the template. I'm not that handy with programming.
I have bought the template from the store and download it on my hard disk.
The instructions mentioned in the txt file is.
1- Put the complete file in the folder Baby-Glossy themes of the solution Prestastop.

Does anyone knows what this means? "solution Prestashop"?

Please help :-(

I'm not familiar with the module you are referring to, but you should upload all the files to your themes directory so that the files are like themes/glossy/404.tpl, themes/glossy/address.tpl, etc.

Thank you for the respons.

I know I have to upload the file to the backoffice. But how can you upload it?

I'm looking forward hearing from you soon,

You should use an FTP client to upload the files to your server.

Thank you for your help and reply,

I have download and installed the program "Filezilla". The template folder that I downloaded on my hard-disk, I upload it to the server under Themes/Prestashop. It was completely uploaded.
Now when I check the back office it does not appears in "Appearances"
What did I do wrong? Do I have to activate or do something else?

Please help :-( ??

As long as themes//preview.jpg exists on your server, the option to select the theme should appear on the Preferences > Appearance tab. If no such file exists in the theme you downloaded, copy the one from the default PrestaShop theme.
