Hi,
Thank you for this plugin. It looks great, but sadly I cannot get it to work, because of the following problem:
This plugin asked me for a complete URL for the theme zip folder.
As it was inside many folders several deep, it was gonna be a LONG url, so I copied it to the desktop.
As far as I was aware the complete url was: file /C:/user/user/desktop/thesis_181.zip
But it couldn't upload it:
So then I wondered if it only had one user, even though I had seen two before: "user/user"
But that said not a valid url, which made me think the first url was right, but I can't be sure as I don't know how to find the exact full url.
And Windows Explorer isn't much help as THAT looks like THIS:
So A) How do I find the correct url please?
B) If the correct url doesn't work, how do I upload the zip file?
and C) why does it need to have the full url anyway? Why can't it have a Browse button?
thank you

Hmmm…
I just looked at another post and now relaise the theme should be installed already, so the url is online not offline.
Oh well, maybe you can have a giggle at my expense!
