Hello,
I've purchased the Versatility 4 template...
Installed Joomla! via "fantastico" on my cPanel WITHOUT sample data.
Installs just fine.
Load Versatility 4 via the Joomla! admin installer.
Template installs fine, can see the basic template (no sample data of course)
Unzip, and FTP to the directory where my Joomla! installation is, the Rocket Theme package (overwriting the existing files)
None of the sample data shows up.....
Suggestions? - Last Edit: 15 years 9 months ago by mathiastheok.

You can add the sample data to an existing install.
Applying the template to an exiting install the template only.
If you want to duplicate the demo, you have to use the Rocket Launcher. - Thanks,

I wrote "rocket theme" I meant Rocket launcher....
So I DID UL and overwrite the files with the Rocket launcher demo package for the Versatility 4 template and nothing loads.
What am I doing wrong?

OK, figured out what the issue is....
If you use "Fantastico" in your cPanel to install Joomla! and you want to install sample data you will have an issue.
If you DO NOT want to install sample data, and you HAVE used Fantastico to install Joomla!, you WILL be able to just upload the template using the Joomla! upload feature.
BUT....
If you want to UL the demo site (rocket launcher), because you used Fantastico to install your Joomla! site you will have duplicate mysqul databases, and you will not see the rocket launcher demo material.
So instead , erase all the Joomla! files you may have installed with Fantastico, then go to the cPanel mysqul database manager and erase the database for the fantastico Joomla! install.
Now, just FTP upload the rocket theme files to the directory of your site, and now you can go threw the normal Joomla! set up process.
