Theme Installation Errors

The OceanWP theme should install without any errors.

However, on some occasions people do encounter errors or experience difficulties. Here are the most common errors, as well as the recommendations on how to resolve the issues:

Are you sure you want to do this?

This error typically happens for one out of two reasons:

1
Your server memory limit to PHP is too low (most common).
2
Your upload limit is not large enough and you must update your php.ini file to increase the upload_max_filesize value.

If you are unable to resolve any of these on your own, please contact your hosting provider for guidance and further troubleshooting.

White Screen Of Death or PHP Error Notice

A "white screen of death" happens when there is a PHP error on the site but WP_Debug is not enabled on the server. So, the first thing to do would be to enable WP_Debug in order for you to be able to identify the actual error and thus fix the issue.

This usually happens when your WordPress installation is not up to date (always keep WordPress up to date). In some cases, a third-party plugin might be creating a conflict. Before switching to a new theme, we recommend disabling all plugins and updating WordPress first.
