      hi, i tried installing the zip file on wordpress, but it keeps saying that the installation fails. so i tried unzipping it and putting the files directly in the wp-conent–>wp-themes folder on my server space. this only sort of worked. the theme showed up as a “broken theme” and said that the style sheet was missing. i’ve copied the text below. thanks.

      Broken Themes

      The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

      Name Description
      OldCar_Theme_V1.6 Stylesheet is missing.

      update–i read around and saw that some people recommended getting rid of any nested files, so i put them all in the main OldCar theme folder. The good news is that wordpress recognized the theme; the bad news is that when i activate it i get a giant white screen. any help would be appreciated!

      Hi

      You should upload the installation zip file but not the main zip file.
      After you active the theme, for get white screen, I need to check your website first, can you show me your link?

      Thanks

      Those folders is just PSD, dummy data and documentation, they are nothing to do with the installation.
