    As mentioned in the post title, I cannot install Lay Theme on Wordpress. This is the error:

    Installing theme from uploaded file: lay.zip
    Unpacking the package…

    Installing the theme…

    The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

    Theme installation failed.

    I have uploaded the zipped lay.zip file, if I unzip it I have a lay folder, and inside this lay folder the various subfolders assets, customizer, ecc.

    How can i go by?

      hey unfortunately the update service that i used seemed to have an issue.
      so only half of the files were in the last lay theme update folder:

      :/

      i just released an update 7.2.1 that contains all the files again. sorry for the inconvenience

      if anyone has the same issue and you cannot access your website / wp-admin panel anymore:

      Please go to your FTP, (find your FTP login info in your webhost control panel)
      go to /wp-content/ → /themes/

      then you'll see the folder "lay"
      rename this folder to "_lay"

      This will disable the theme and you can access /wp-admin/ again and install lay.zip from www.laykeymanager.com for example (version 7.2.1)
      or download it from here:
      https://kernl.us/api/v2/public/temporary-download/66b24b71c167f4a6d78f710e

      (link is valid for 30 days)

        I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
        💿 Email me here: 💿
        info@laytheme.com

        Before you post:
        1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
        2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
        3. Disable all Plugins
        4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

        This often solves issues you might run into

        When you post:
        1. Post a link to where the problem is
        2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
        3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
