clayton29657 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hello Janne Where did you purchase the theme? Have you tried to contact the developers of this theme as well? Cheers Clayton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindsparx Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Fiiinally i know whats wrong, thanks to the Prestashop team that tested my zip. If any one has the same problem its your computer that creates the .zip files wrong for some reason. I tested it on 2 computers and they both make bad zip files... im not sure if its becouse i use 64bit Windows, but now i know what the problem is, thanks!! /Janne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

androkot33 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I've tried to make zip file for my theme using 7-ZIP, WinRAR, windows default zip program. Works nothing ;-(( It says "Invalid zip theme" What to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekia Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 it's because (probably) you have to use theme exporter tool, it will not work when you zipping the whole template directory. [moderator] moved to the correct forum section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
