I just installed wordpress in softclaus. After installing, I visit wp-admin and sign in. I want to change the theme of my wordpress site. I click the Appreance Themes and there is no option to add new theme. It only has a Twenty Sixteen theme. Is there a setting I must change first? or what?
It can be not possible for you to install a theme because of a line in your wp-config.php.
define('DISALLOW_FILE_MODS',true);
Can you check if you can install plugins ? Or check this file at your wordpress root using ftp ?
The Twenty Sixteen theme is the default theme of wordpress.

I am modifying the wordpress installer so that it has another default theme and other plugins to speed up installations in my company, but I cannot get it to activate the plugins that I add to wp-content by default, I would also like to change the default format of the permalinks worse I can't find the way
I installed a theme in my wp-admin and selected it as the default theme without configuration.
After that I removed it from c-panel; my site is fine, but I cant get in to my wp-admin because it says:
The theme directory "theme" does not exist.
Any ideas?
Do you have the deleted theme files with you ?
You can upload the theme back into the theme directory and login into your dashboard then change your theme from the admin. After that, you can delete your theme.
If you do not have the theme files with you, you will need to reinstall wordpress.
the problem is that you delete the active theme and wordpress can't loading it.
You have to select another theme for work properly.
Let me know.
I downloaded the theme from w3layout.com. I installed wordpress and wampserver on my laptop. When i tried to uploaded downloaded theme to wordpress for further editing and customization it simply failed and showed following message.
"The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme install failed."
link of the template - https://w3layouts.com/exchange-education-a-education-category-flat-bootstrap-responsive-web-template/
please help me to solve this problem as its very easy to do editing / customization with wordpress than doing it manually.
Thank you
Theme and Templates are not the same.
If you download a Theme from Wordpress Theme's Repo Then you will be able to simply unzip the file in the /themes/directory and activate it within the WP-Admin Dashboard.
A Template is simply a post or page template which is within a given theme.
The directory of a theme can vary but it could be located within the root of the theme or within a common /template/ directory.
Sorry if this does not help!
I am new in wordpress. I am trying to build multisite using single wordpress installation. In that how I can change theme of every site? Please give me some idea.
Once you setup your multisite, you will see a new menu option where all your sites are listed. You can change such settings from there. Here is a screenshot

First of all you need to unzip the theme file you have downloaded and place in your themes folder then go to admin panel
admin ->appearance -> Themes
there the themes will be displayed
you can view the new theme here and activate the theme
now your theme will be enabled on your wordpress, you can check your home page
