To add a new theme to your WordPress installation, follow
these basic steps:
1. Download the theme archive and extract the files
it contains. You may need to preserve the directory structure in the
archive when extracting these files. Follow the guidelines provided
by your theme author.
2. Using an FTP client to access your host web server, create a directory
to contain your theme in the wp-content/themes directory provided by
WordPress. For example, a theme named Test should be in wp-content/themes/test.
Your theme may provide this directory as part of the archive.
3. Upload the theme files to the new directory on your host server.
4. Follow the instructions below for selecting the new theme.
Adding New Themes in cPanel
If your host offers the cPanel control panel, and the theme files are
in a .zip or .gz archive follow these instructions. Note: This assumes
the theme you download is a compressed (zip) file and the files in the
zip file are in their 'named' folder.
1. Download the theme zip file to your local machine.
2. In cPanel File Manager, navigate to your themes folder. If you have
WordPress installed in it's own folder called wordpress, you would navigate
to "public_html/wordpress/wp-content/themes" and if WordPress is installed
in your web-root folder you would navigate to "public_html/wp-content/themes".
3. Once you've navigated to the themes folder in cPanel File Manager,
click on Upload file(s) and upload that zip file you saved in Step 1.
4. Once the zip file is uploaded, click on the zip file name in cPanel,
then in the panel to the right, click on Extract File Contents, and that
zip file will be uncompressed.
5. Follow the instructions below for selecting the new theme.
Selecting the Active Theme To select the active theme
for your site:
1. Log in to the WordPress Administration Panels.
2. Select the Presentation subpanel.
3. From the Available Themes section, click on theme title (or theme screenshot)
for the theme you wish to activate.
4. To view the new look, click View Site at the top of the Panel's screen.
Your selection should immediately become active.
