Myths357,
Are you familiar with how to use FTP to upload files to a web host? |

Well, you are unlikely to get immediate answers on most any forum.
That aside, once you FTP'd the PostNuke to your web host, what did you do then? |

Ah, my apologies. You're using PHP-Nuke, and not PostNuke. Off the top of my head, I don't know if Mars' theme in question works on a PHP-Nuke website.
If the issue is only where to upload the theme, though, upload it to your PHP-Nuke/themes folder, so that you then have the folowing:
PHP-Nuke/themes/red
You will have to use PHP-Nuke's admin panel, though, to actually activate the theme for your PHP-Nuke website, assuming that Mars' red theme works on PHP-Nuke websites. |

I am half asleep here now, so pardon me.
I don't use PHP-Nuke, so I am not very famialiar with its admin panel.
To use the red theme, though, at a minimum, you will need to have the AutoTheme module installed. Do you already have AutoTheme installed on your website?
The themes are accessible in PHP-Nuke from the admin panel.
1. Click Administration to go to the PHP-Nuke admin panel.
2. Click the Preferences option, once you are at the admin panel.
3. Scroll down to where it says, Default Theme for your site:
4. Click on the current theme to bring up a list of available themes to choose from.
5. After you select the theme that you want to use on your website, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and then click on the Save Changes button.
That's really all that you need to do, if the red theme works with PHP-Nuke, and if you also have the AutoTheme module installed on your website.
The red theme requires AutoTheme, as far as I know, in order to work properly.
I hope that this helps. |

I got your e-mail, and am in FTP access on your site now.
It is sort of like walking through a maze. <smile>
What version of PHP-Nuke are you using? Your nuke folder doesn't look ike mine, your autothemes module is in the wrong place, your red theme folder is not in the right folder, and the red theme is also in a sub-folder of another red theme folder.
I hope that I am reading your directory contects correctly.
If I am not mistaken, it appears that the source of your frustration is multi-fold, and primarily due to stuff being located in the wrong locations on your web host.
With a little patient, I think that we can get it sorted out, together.
Fair enough? |

The more that I look via FTP, the more confusing it all is.
On your website right now, what is your website running on? Is that PHP-Nuke, or have you been able to activate PHP-Nuke, yet? I am looking at what appears to be a green looking theme, one with Matrix style numbers scrolling on the front page.
But, your forums seem to be distinct, and not run as a module.
Is there a certain reason that you prefer PHP-Nuke to PostNuke?
Your nuke folder on your web host does not look like my PHP-Nuke folder on a test website that I have on my web host. Since my setup is bare bones, there is nothing to confuse me with. But, when I compare it to your FTP directory, your set-up looks much different.
The first step, is to get PHP-Nuke installed and working. Then, install autothemes. Then, install the actual theme that you want to use.
I recommend starting from scratch. |

| Also, if you have no preference, then I would recommend PostNuke over PHP-Nuke. |
