It all depends on what those parts contain.

I would have thought that the theme developer(s) would have provided installation guidelines. If not, then your best bet would be to ask the theme developer(s). Or, at least, let us know which theme(s) - then other users can pitch in.

The guide is in the explanation

I think the whole theme is too big and could not be uploaded in one piece

"!!! The theme is spited in two parts. Download both of them and make sure they are in the same location then unzip the first one to get the complete file"


I think the whole theme is too big and could not be uploaded in one piece.

the reaper stash has a PITA limit on file sizes that it will allow to be uploaded to it. IMHO it should be increased greatly!

Sometimes a theme is larger than that file size limit...

The workaround for the uploader is to make a multipart .rar file of the theme.

In those cases you have to download two or more files, that are likely .rar files...

When you have them, put them both into the same folder an unrar them to get the theme itself.

Can't say it enough... PLEAE INCREASE THE FILE SIZE limit on the stash!

I found a stash workaround - the file size limit is only on the original upload. If you replace the file, the limit disappears. This is how I had to upload my themes.

Weird, but it works.

Thanks for the tip.
I'm going to give this a try. The latest version of my theme is on my Google Drive account because of the Stash file size limit. I'd love to move it to the Stash though.
