 * I recently downloaded a WordPress theme from Themeforest. Everything went ok 
   with the download and everything but I can’t seem to upload the theme. I am trying
   to install the theme onto an ‘Add On’ domain and when I click on ‘Add New’ theme,
   this message comes up: “An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong 
   with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems,
   please try the support forums”. I can still find the .zip file I need and it 
   seems to be loading but once it finishes an error screen comes up saying that
   the install failed. I’m at a loss… Any and all help would be appreciated.. Thanks
   in advance.
 * P.S. That message also comes up when i try to upload a theme onto a different“
   Add On’ domain that i have in my hosting account.
