Cant get Panda to work

[purechoice]

I just installed 1.0.8  and bought Panda.  When I go to preferences--themes and add theme I get  Bad or missing configuration file.

I tried he TB version  the 1.6 and the 1.7 one.  All the same error.  I even tried to do it through FTP but it does not show up in my themes.

 

Anyone know whats wrong?

First update to latest version of thirtybees, ideally 1.1.x - bleeding edge. It might sound scary to newcomers, but it's the most stable of them all.

If it still doesn't work on latest version, file a bug on github. 

[purechoice]

I have the latest and googling through it looks to be a common problem so looking for a solution.

Have you tried the support forum at sunnytoo - the guys there are great, and it is their theme

So which one is it?

[purechoice]

Yes I have.  Just very frustrating when you buy something and it does not work 😞

I just installed TB 1.0.8 

When I bought the Panda Theme about an hour ago, it came with 3 version  TB, 1.6, 1.7  . I tried all 3 and all 3 says bad configuration file

[purechoice]

Did you load the theme from Preferences---Themes-  then ADD Theme ?

[purechoice]

I saw this but I have 1.0.8  so it still should not be a problem

 

 

[colorful-ant]

disable and clear caches - etc

try again

 

i think its another problem with your theme install

Bad or missing configuration file

[purechoice]

yep done that also 😞 I tried downloading the theme again and also tried the FTP method.  No go either way,

[purechoice]

Just tried the coreupdater also, but no change

1.0.8 is not latest version, far from it. And this version had few bugs regarding theme installations. Some of them were fixed or mitigated in 1.1.0 and 1.1.x. That's why I asked you to update to latest version -- it's possible your issue is already solved.

have you read the install informations from @Jonny

sunnytoo.com

I will give that a shot.  Should I be installing the theme fro 1.7 or TB

[colorful-ant]

only panda tb version - prestashop 1.7 dont works with tb, and 1.6 prestashop too many problems

 

[purechoice]

ok so maybe this is the problem.  MY TB is 1.0.8. OK, let me  upgrade that and see if that works.  I only installed TB yesterday and downloaded it yesterday so I dont know why it did not do the latest version.

[purechoice]

OK, looks like I am getting somewhere now that I am at 1.1.0 .  I have to ftp in delete the panda thats there and try again.

 

[purechoice]

BINGO!!  thats did it.  its installed.  Now I will see what other trouble I can get into.

 

Thank you all fro your help.

 

Solution- You need 1.1.0 .  1.0.8  does not work.

[datakick]

I see that your site does not look so good. Looks like your modules were disabled / unhooked. You will need to go to Modules and reset each and every one of them, so they re-hook properly.

This is one of the issues that was (to some level) fixed in 1.1.x. Too bad you updated only to 1.1.0.

[purechoice]

is there a way to just have this site?

[colorful-ant]

you can try different versions/designs from panda theme

or find one -> then change it to your wishes
