Activate a theme

In addition to eneubauer’s comment:

  • It could be a permission problem as well, make sure your theme directory is readable by your www-user.

  • Be very conservative with your theme ID (=directory name). I’d recommend to only use the syntax
    theme-simplename
    Use lowercase characters only and do not use any special characters.
    I also ran into issues when the name was too long, so keep it short
    I didn’t dig into the code, but from the past I know that e.g. underscore characters in the theme ID will prevent it from being enabled. Just use theme-simpleletters
