    Hello all,

    I just set up wordpress MU on a localhost, and I like it for designing templates cause it's easy to add blogs and therefore THEMES...

    However, when I tried to apply a theme I'm using on wordpress 2.7, the theme does not change.

    I didn't activate it site-wide, and I did check the little box under "edit blog," but I'm wondering if I'm missing a step. All three of my themes are just not showing up? ?? ?? ? ?

    need help!

    Thanks

    It's either the permissions on the folder, it;s in a sub-folder under a folder under themes, or it has a hyphen in the name.

    nope... that's not it... my themes are HTGP2, and centraltennis - and both are in the "themes" folder. They work as global themes for the root site... but don't on individual blogs.

    And what's the permissions on the folders?

    Weird.

    Do they show if you globally activate them?

    I mean under Site Admin -> Themes.

    And the sub-blogs themselves are working?

    yea.. they were working..

    I think I'm just going to go back to normal wordpress, and have a couple themes I can switch between on there... or maybe once I get a mac, I'll do this : http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-set-up-a-killer-wordpress-testing-environment-locally/ :)

    Thanks for your help!
