在WordPress网站的子域上安装主题

Question

I am working on a WordPress site which is hosted. I have created a sub domain on that site using CPanel. Now I want to Install a theme in the sub site and I am not able to do it. I tried the following

1. In the Admin Dashboard, goto Appearances->Themes, Upload Zip Folder. But this would only Install the theme on the Main site and not the subsite.

2. Try to manually upload the file to the sub domain folder through my hosting provider. It doesn't work .

Kindly suggest ways on how to go about it.

Answer 1

Did you already install WordPress at the subdomain? You should simply be able to log into the dashboard for that install (eg at http://subdomain.example.com/wp-admin/ ), and add the theme there. It should not affect the main site at all. (Both sites are entirely unrelated.)

(If you're using the multisite feature, things are a bit different. In that case, you should enable it through the network admin dashboard before you can activate it on any site.)
