Overview
Most theme installation problems come from uploading the wrong file, server limits or missing requirements. Identify the error first instead of repeatedly uploading the same package.
Missing Stylesheet Error
Make sure you are uploading the installable theme ZIP rather than the full download package containing documentation and extras.
Upload Size Limit
If WordPress rejects a large theme file, check the server upload limit. Use an appropriate hosting setting or another supported installation method.
LA STUDIO TIP
Make one meaningful change at a time and test the result before moving to the next step. This makes troubleshooting much easier.
Installation Fails or Times Out
Low memory or execution limits can interrupt extraction. Check Site Health and hosting logs for useful clues.
Required Plugins Are Missing
Install and activate the plugins recommended by the theme, then revisit the setup wizard or demo importer.
Theme Looks Different from the Demo
A theme installation alone does not automatically import demo content, menus, widgets or homepage settings.
Final Checklist
Review the changes on desktop and mobile, confirm important links and interactions, clear relevant caches, and keep a recent backup before publishing major updates.
