 * When I try to upload a theme that’s in a zip file, it seems to be uploading fully
   but at the end I get a page with a following message: “Are you sure you want 
   to do this?” and a link <please try again>.
    The theme I’m trying to upload is
   Weston by Themetrust.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwp-theme-not-installing%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * You have a no google map API key warning on your site, though I doubt it would
   cause this error. Can you upload it via cPanel or FTP? If so, will it activate?

 * It’s possible that the size of your theme archive exceeds the maximum upload 
   limits set in your php.ini. Try installing the un-zipped theme by FTP or file
   manager.
