Upload the new theme folder to URL/wp-content/themes. Then go into your ACP and look under ‘Presentation‘ and click on the theme that you want to use. The theme should contain plugins. Do you have a link to the theme so we can check it for you?

Your theme contains two parts:
1) The theme files that define the looks
2) Optional plugins, that offer some special new functionality
The theme files must be uploaded to wp-content/themes
and the optional plugins (to be used with/in the theme) can be uploaded to wp-content/plugins
After this you should
a) go to presentation menu and activate the new theme, and
b) go to plugins page and activate some of the new plugins
Hi Terpsblog. You need a special program that will send those files to your server. It’s called a FTP. You can find one for the PC here. Open up the new theme zip file and you’ll find a theme folder. Upload that folder with the FTP program to your server, it goes in the blogs /wp-content/themes folder. Then log in to your admin control panel (ACP) and click on ‘Presentation’ You should see the new theme there. Click on it. That’s it, your new theme is now the default theme 🙂
