    Sorry but we will need more info to help.

    How was Wordpress installed? Did you use cpanel? Are you planning on using Wordpress?

    What exactly did you upload?

    You've missed a couple folders.

    Your Wordpress themes are in:
    • public_html/wp-content/themes/your-theme-name-here

    You'll still need to change the theme inside your wp-admin, login to WP, don't use Filezilla to change the theme. Only needs to be done once. After that you can use Filezilla to edit the new theme.

      Thanks but another porblem pop out :/
      " the active theme is broken. reverting to the default theme"

      And when I changed file name from "avada-child_files" to "avada-child" site lost style (just text left). Maybe this is problem? Those are files edited with inspect element and saved with "save as.." chrome option.

      Done everything by this tutorial: https://colorlib.com/wp/guide-to-wordpress-child-themes/
      Am positive that I've done everything right.

    Avada has it's own support including FTP.

    Hi Dragonknigh,

    The Avada theme is a well designed Wordpress theme. I have used it on several websites.

    Because you are using a child theme, you need to have the parent theme folder installed, for your child theme to work.

    The Avada theme comes with optional Demo pages that you may need to install if you want to use any of the pre-designed homepage layouts that came with the theme package.

    See this link for instructions on importing the Demo pages:
    https://theme-fusion.com/avada-doc/d...-demo-content/

    And if you get stuck here is the support forum for that theme:
