No need to zip
Use your FTP client - or get one to use

Re: I have NOOOO Idea how to get this on there

Well If you cannot follow the instruction that comes with the free template, can you estimate the probability that you can understand and follow the instructions that someone could write here in this forum? In particular when your question is as specific as I can see.

Good that you know how to set the red flag!

Anyway, Good Luck when you write your next question. Hope it will be clearer.

Are you talking about the FTP on my hosting site or the zencart site. If its the zencart site where is that located.
I am following the directions off of this site
.themestock.com/InstallingZenCartTemplates.php

I have the files on my computer but they are in 3 folders and there are a bunch of items in each folder and they do not look like this website says they are supposed to look

Re: I have NOOOO Idea how to get this on there

Google for filezilla
It is very similar to using a windows filemanager but between your local and your server
Drag and drop
Most templates are pre structured into the proper format so that you should have a "includes" folder locally with all template files contained in appropriate folders
Drag local folder to the server and all things are copied correctly

ThemeStock!!! Seem to recall that these are Template Monster template - pretty but bad:yuck:

If it is a Template Monster template, that could explain why it doesn't match what the Tutorials/FAQ and Wiki are telling you. There are free template available for Zen Cart which come with instructions and may be less confusing for you. You can see them in action at http://(sorry, site offline)/
