I am trying to install the EDUblogs bb-press theme but have to be missing something. The readme file says:
Unzip the dowloaded zip file.
Upload the files inside themes folder to /bb-templates/.
Make sure your install path are correct
/www/var/site/forums/bb-templates/thethemename
or
/www/var/site/forums/my-templates/thethemename
Login to your dashboard ยป appearence and activate the themes
Your theme should be usable and activated now
I created the my-template file and uploaded the theme.
Mine looks like - /www/bb-templates/eduBB
The readme says - /www/var/site/forums/my-templates/eduBB
The site is only going to be used as a forum there is no need for a 'forum' directory.
When I go to the theme panel in wordpress, the theme isn't there. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

This theme is a BB Press one, you need to install BB Press in order to use it. If you install that, then the instructions will make more sense as the directories in question will then exist so that you can upload the theme into them.

Yep, just got it. There was an error in the installation process. Thanks
