How to Install a WordPress Theme Using FTP?

Comment on Installing a WordPress Theme by Isikeli Varea.

Hi David.

I’m having trouble finding the Talian theme in my dashboard, although I’ve followed all the steps you outlined, ie uploading using Filezilla. I can even see the Talian file there on the right hand side panel under Themes, with the units of 2 million odd beside it, and it says the file has been successfully transferred to my site.

But when I go to my Dashboard, there’s still only the one custom theme installed there: Twenty Ten. When I go to install a theme, it says no such theme is installed.

Is there one step I’m missing? I’ve got a Dedicated Hostgator account, though if that’s any help.

Thanks for your help.
