Troubleshooting

  1. Are You Sure You Want To Do This” error

If you encounter the “Are You Sure You Want To Do This” error message while trying to install the civi.zip file via WordPress, it indicates that your host has set a limit on the file size for uploads. To resolve this issue, you can either install the theme using FTP or contact your hosting provider to request an increase in the limit.

      2. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet error

Another common issue that can arise when installing a WordPress theme is receiving the error message “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.” This error may occur if you have uploaded the wrong file. You have two options for downloading your theme: the installable WordPress file only or all files and documentation in a full zip folder. If you choose the latter, you will need to extract the folder and locate the installable WordPress file to properly install the theme.
