Hi,
I've installed templates in the past. But they were all zips.
Now I'm trying to install a Rocket Theme template that is a .tgz file and it won't work.
It takes a minute, looking like it's uploading. Then it stops and loads a blank page (/administrator/index.php)
Any ideas what could be the problem? Is there any way of downloading the themes files in a zip instead of tgz?
Cheers.

Try downloading the .tgz to your computer, unpack it and then zip it up and try again

- It could be "Extract archive" or something similar. Use WinRAR or 7Zip if you are on Windows.

Realised I didn't have winzip installed anymore since I done a reformat...
Installed it. Extracted the theme from .tgz
Zipped it back up using winzip
And still joomla won't upload it
Can you upload themes using FTP?

- Yes, just drag 'n drop the rt_template_j15 folder to the /templates/ directory.
