Heads up! this post was created when Microthemer was at version 5. The current version is 7. Some references to the interface may be out of date. I just subscribed and download my file. However, when trying to follow the installation instructions, I run into a problem. My file came unzipped and the upload only accepts zipped files. Any suggestions on how to install? |

Hey, Sorry to hear you’ve had trouble setting up. And for the delay in replying, I think out time zones might be a little out of sync. It sounds like your computer may have automatically unzipped the microthemer.zip file. You have a couple of options: 1. Re-zip the folder and then upload the zip file via (WordPress admin area) > Plugins > Add New > Upload. Here is some info on how to zip folders: MAC: https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-zip-and-unzip-files-and-folders-on-a-mac-2260188 2. Use an FTP program like Filezilla (for Windows/Mac) to upload the unzipped folder to the following directory on your site:
The the new directory would be:
Actually, there’s a 3rd option that might be even more convenient. From the WordPress admin area, go to Plugins > Add New. The search for Microthemer Lite. Install it, then unlock the full plugin using the credentials shown in My Downloads. I hope that helps. Please let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks, |
