Yeah, I don’t know what’s up with that. Every once in a while this happens then everything is fine. I just downloaded it myself and it’s messed up.

I’m emailing you a zip file of the theme from my archives. You shouldn’t have any problems with this one.

Hi, I’m having the same problem, having downloaded from the official wordpress themes site. It’s such a beautiful theme, it’s really sad I can’t get it to work. There’s index.php.tmp = 0kb, and no page.php. WordPress give this message:

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.
Name Description
Anonymous Elegance Template is missing.

used your link, from there via link to WordPress Theme Directory,
then in sidebar Anonymous Elegance selected and on that page the download button.
Looks all pretty official to me.
the downloaded file I unpacked, and sent it via FTP to the server.All files in the previously created directory had the same size and date.

I noticed a file index.php.tmp with size 0.
And no index.php.

Just to practise theme installation, i took another one (clod clutter), that worked fine.

To which adress do you want the zip?

Bruno,

It’s possible that the download was corrupt. Try downloading it again and make sure you only download it from the Official WordPress Theme Directory. Then upload the entire directory to your server.

If it happens again and you’re still having problems, could you email me the zip file you downloaded?

Hi Mina,
just doing my first steps in WP, and I liked your theme.

Thank you very much for explaining it for me:-) So now I can go ahead and create a banner. Thats great. About the differenses in the layouts, you got me right. I thought you used the same themes, but perhaps with som plugins for details. I dont know much about this stuff yet. I just started a few days ago. Thank you very much for your reply. And also the themes. I love them

I’m not sure what you mean by it being different than this blog.

If you are referring to the colors and layout here on The Cloisters it’s because I’m using a modified version of the Wasteland theme here and you’re using Anonymous Elegance. Totally different themes.

Irene, To add your own header image go into Admin >> Appearance >> Editor >> style.css and find this line:

.header { background: #000 url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat; width: 980px; height: 200px; margin: 10px 10px 0 10px; padding: 0; }

You see where is says url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat, just upload your own image (keeping with the 980px wide X 200px high size) and either name it header.jpg or change that line to reflect the name of your image.

And as you will see, its totally different from this blog, around the layout stuff. Do you use plugins or anything to adjust the layout to something like this?

I also forgot to mention, I use WP version 2.7
