Troubleshooting Common Upload Errors
• "The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet": You uploaded the full bundle package instead of the inner theme zip file. Extract the downloaded zip and upload the actual theme file.
• "The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini": Increase your server's max upload limit to 64MB or 128MB via your cPanel PHP options or contact your web host.
• 100% Virus-Free Assurance: All files distributed on Shine GPL are audited through multi-engine security scans (Virustotal, McAfee, Norton) before publication.
