Need some quick Wordpress template downloading help!

by sellerscompanion

Hi! I downloaded a PLR package about a particular theme. In it, there was a Wordpress template and it is just what I need. However, I am accustomed to just downloading the zipped files for themes. This came in a folder with a bunch of bits and pieces that say PHP and MO. How do I take all of those and download them into my cpanel as one big theme??

Help!

    Not sure from your post, but if you mean what I think, you just downlaod the whole folder into the themes folder then install in via the control panel.

    Can you list what files you are seeing in the folder?

    Please be specific.

    Thanks!

    404.php
    archive.php
    archives.php
    comments.php
    footer.php
    functions.php

    and on and on... There is not one folder, but all these components.

    There is also a style sheet and another style sheet that says IE6.

    "and on and on... There is not one folder, but all these components"

    No offense, but you're not making sense.

    I would be glad to do a screen shot, but I do not know how to do that either! I am having a technically challenging day....

    Pretty sure those aren't theme files.

    Be careful what you upload in what places.

    I'd recommend you go into your web server and look at what files in a current theme
    you have loaded looks like and that will give you some indication as to what you
    can be looking for in your new package of files and folders.

    Thanks Steve for reinforcing what I said. (but I think you were more eloquent)
    Sellerscompanion, I'm not sure, but it also looks like your image folder needs to be unzipped.

    I figured it out! I just had to zip the file and it uploaded fine. Thanks for the help!

    The .mo files are for localization (Machine Object files) containing the different locales.If the user installs WP in their own language and the localization for that language exists (e.g. es_ES.mo - for Spanish) the theme would switch automatically to display the WP components in that langauge.
