Solving the “Template Is Missing” Error

July 31, 2007

Apparently this is something new with the latest version of WordPress, but I have found that if you edit the theme’s stylesheet to remove the first line, like so:


/*
Template: blank-stare < remove this line!
Theme Name: Blank Stare
Description: Even more minimalist than Zen! Content only front page.
Author: Joni Mueller for Pixelita Designs LLC
Author URI: http://www.pixelita.com
*/

The error message goes away. Let me know if you encounter a theme where this fix does not work for you. And thanks, everyone, for downloading (or attempting to download!) our themes!
