1. What version of WonderCMS are you using.
I'm using version 3.1.4
2. What type of server do you have. (Apache, NGINX, IIS)
Apache
3. What version of PHP do you have.
I'm using PHP 7.4
4. Does your hosting provider/server meet the minimum WonderCMS requirements? (https://wondercms.com/requirements - or send your hosting provider this link and ask them if they meet the minimum requirements)
Yes
5. Are you using a custom theme or any plugins, which ones?
I'm trying to use a custom theme, based on Essence... but it's not installing. However, manually installing works and the theme functions pretty much how I intended it to.
The error I get during the install is "Error opening ZIP file."
I can install other themes such as my older theme (https://github.com/FanboyStudios/Random ... elopmental), but my new theme is not installing.
Link to my new theme below...
https://github.com/FanboyStudios/RFMG-W ... elopmental
My plugins: Summernote Editor 3.1.1, Simple Blog 3.1.0, Simple Statistics 3.0.2, Additional Contents 3.0.8, Cache Thumbs 3.0.0, Contact Form 3.0.0
[SOLVED] Error when trying to install theme, but theme works if manually installed.

Re: Error when trying to install theme, but theme works if manually installed.
Alright, so I figured out the issue myself!
Apparently the GitHub Client defaults to the "main" branch instead of the "master" branch.
As such, the zip file is renamed with "-main" on the end instead of "-master", which I guess WonderCMS doesn't like.
Anyway, I fixed it by deleting my repo and remaking the repo with Master branch set as default.
I can now install my new theme!

Re: Error when trying to install theme, but theme works if manually installed.
Hey Fanboystudios, this issue is already reported and fixed in the new (unreleased version).
3.2.0 is still in progress due to some Submenu bugs, and we're working on fixing them (and releasing a beta version prior).
Glad you figured it out and that you're enjoying your theme.
How are you finding WonderCMS, apart from the bug you've run into?

Apart from the bugs and the lack of some plugins, I think this is simply the best CMS!wiz wrote: ↑Sat Jul 24, 2021 7:20 am Hey Fanboystudios, this issue is already reported and fixed in the new (unreleased version).

It's so simple and easy to use, very light on resources, and pretty stable and easy to fix (since I don't have to go through a ton of code like I would with WordPress).

Something else, not really related to WonderCMS... but this may be of interest to people who want a flat file based solution for forums.
https://flatboard.org
I just wish it had the option of email verification and didn't paywall the other plugin features. With that said, it's the only flat file based forum solution I've found. Easy enough to throw on a subdomain like forum.example.com!
