help a newbie plz!

[hasnain721]

Hi,
I just installed zencart and i am really sorry to say that i didnt fancy the default template. So, i wanted to install this template : -
gold_ passion
but i need instruction in doing so. Can some one guide me step by step plz.

Thanks. This is what i have done so far: -

opened : mysite/includes/templates and uploaded the folder called gold_passion. Then i went to tools> template selector > clicked on edit for Classic Contemporary Green and gold_passion was not there in the drop down menu!

I think that the admins should create a proper user guide rather than including vague instructions.

Please reply
Thanks (in anticipation)
Cheers!

You have to change the template_info.php file also.
try this thread:

A good place to start is the Wiki, the documentation is to vast to include within the program itself. The admin's have chipped in more than their fair share. Give 'em ...

Also, there is good documentation provided with the templates in my signature if you'd like to try one of those.
