Child Theme error

Good day. I am having an unusual error on a new staging site I am working on. There was no option to upgrade X-Pro from 5.1.1 to 6.1.10, so I renamed the theme on the server to “Old_pro” and then uploaded vers. 6.1.10. When I went to the Worpress Dashboard the Child theme had an error and said the parent theme was missing, even though the Parent theme was clearly there. I activated the Parent theme and the staging site came up just fine.

I removed the Child Theme and uploaded a new copy, but the error message still exists and I cannot activate the child Theme. Any thoughts?

Hello @mcaravaglia,

Thanks for writing in!

You are experiencing the issue because you have uploaded the incorrect pro.zip. At the moment, your Pro theme resides at wp-content/themes/pro/pro/. You will have to fix it by removing the other pro folder making it only: wp-content/themes/pro/. You can use a 3rd party File Manager plugin or just access the File manager in your hosting panel.

Kindly let us know how it goes.

Thank you (as always). Issue is resolved.

Hi @mcaravaglia,
