unable to use uploaded templates

[C. Picman]

I receive the following message when bring up my pixelpost site (aprivateroom.com):
Error:
No template folder exists by the name of "dark-matter-111" or the file image_template.html is missing in that folder.
Make sure that you have uploaded all necessary files with the exact same names as mentioned here.

I downloaded the dark matter template and unzipped it and then uploaded the files into the template folder.

The dark matter folder is in the template folder and any files that are in that folder were uploaded. When I highlight and update, nothing happens. When I check my site the error message is displayed.

I have tried this twice on dark matter and also tried another template with no luck.
Just receive error messages.

Any help would be appreciated.

is the template in a folder? So, did you install it in a folder under the template folder?

Yeah i am having the same issue? I can't even change the to the other original one that is on there, horizon i think it is? It takes me to this URL which doesnt seem right, because my web address isn't there? http://gallerynew/pixelpost_v1.7.1/admin/index.php?view=options&optionsview=template&optaction=updatetemplate

that is what happens when i click update.

in that case your base url is wrong in the admin panel. There is this setting somewhere were you can set the url to your page. Please correct this.

Hmmm not really sure what to do :lol: I am on the "General" panel on the options, and can't see anything about base url :? I can't change anything on the template sub section actually it just comes up address found, think i am out of my depth here :lol:

This is more than the template, i pretty much can't change anything, i must of done something wrong! I can put pictures on, but when i cange anything it pretty much says the link is broken or something?

[Dennis]

in the general section there is the following:


SITE TITLE AND URL
Check or modify the Site title, Sub title, and the URL of your installation


Title:
Sub Title:
URL:

Check the URL, this is probably flawed.

It says this

http://www.james-dunford.com/Gallerynew/pixelpost_v1.7.1/

and i mean what is it supposed to say?

Apologies for these stupid questions by the way!!

[Dunny#1]

Time to give up i reckon lol! I have fiddled and can't really see whats wrong to be honest :(

[Dennis]

can you give me access to your admin panel?

Perhaps I can figure it out.

Or you can send them to Dkozikowski (http://www.pixelpost.org/forum/member.php?u=1312), a really nice guy who (just like me) would be happy to assist you in this matter.
