Skin not "selectable" in Blog Skin settings.

1 Sep 20, 2008 01:15    

My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

I downloaded the ancient skin zip file, extracted it and uploaded it to my skins folder on my isp server. I went to the blog skin settings and selected install new skin - it allowed me to pick the ancient skin, and then it showed up in the selection grid - there is a box for the ancient skin just like the others loaded on installation....except there is no preview and when select it I get the following errors.

Additional information about this error:
The skin [ancient_years] set for blog [STK] does not exist. It must be properly set in the blog properties or properly overriden in a stub file.
b2evolution error: The skin [ancient_years] set for blog [STK] does not exist.

Can you give me guidance? Thanks in advance

i believe you had %99.99 double extracted it and so the files are not in the appropriate place..

(this time it's 99.9999999 believe me :P)-crosses fingers-

which i mean like you have your files in .../skins/ancient_years/ancient_years/stle.css etc..

where it should be : .../skins/ancient_years/style.css

please check that
