Hi,
I'm just beginning to customize my first theme. I followed the steps in the documentation although I must be doing something wrong or missing something obvious.

I took the theme "sample"
Renamed to KP
Found all instances of theme/sample and changed to theme/KP in theme.php, css and theme.html files
Uploaded
Logged in as admin
Changed to KP theme in the config area
Don't see new theme/styles when i look at the gallery in a browser
Do see an asterix/dot next to theme name in theme list

Have i done something wrong so far?

Thanks in advance
Laura

You should not copy the sample theme but one that's close to what you want.

Post a link to your site. Clear your cookies.

Cookies cleared

All I did so far was change the background color on the style sheet.

I'll try starting from a different theme.

Thanks

These paths are not correct

Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" href="../KP2/themes/KP/style.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="../KP2/scripts.js"></script>


Should be

Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/KP/style.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"></script>

It's still wrong.

Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" href="../KP/themes/KP/style.css" type="text/css" />


Should be

Code Select

<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/KP/style.css" type="text/css" />

In template.html i have

<link rel="stylesheet" href="../KP/themes/KP/style.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"></script>

I did a find and replace for both water_drop and KP2 to KP

Are you seeing it wrong in another place?
