shabana,

Are you copying the Elgg files from your Ohrosh.com/elgg/ directory or you are uploading “Fresh” install of Elgg?
You can’t just copy your Elgg files from Ohrosh.com/elgg/ to Ohrosh.com/ without editing the configuration files as your settings file and database is already configured for sub-folder/sub-directory install.

The requested action (systemsettings/install) was not defined in the system.
Thats the message I am getting after uploading Elgg folders directly to my website Ohrosh.com instead of Ohrosh.com/elgg/ any clue? many thanks

@ shabana
Glad to hear it works. I’m not sure if there is a Arabic language pack but that is something you set when you install Elgg (after you insert your database information, on next page you set the language)

Uploading larger photos in Elgg depends on your server php configuration. You might want to contact your host provider and see the limits.

Man You are the best ever! the site works!! I guess I am two steps away.
1)How do I make the website with the Arabic language?
2)Trying to upload photos (around 1.4 mb and 4.7 mb) it does not upload
Any help? I owe you big time!!

@ shabana Are you using one with image as logo or other one?
Disable the theme in admin, delete it from the server via FTP, re-download the theme ( you might want to try the other Blackpod theme – http://juipo.com/free-tamplates/elgg-themes/blackpod-with-dropdown-menu-elgg-theme/ ) then unzip it and re-upload to server (mod folder).
Make sure the Simplecache and Filepath cache is Disabled in your “Site Administration” and also make sure that when unziping you are uploading last folder inside the zip.

There seems to be a problem either with your zip program or FTP program because there seems to be no css file.

@ shabana
Can you post your url so I can take a look?
Also what version of Elgg you are using 1.6.1 or 1.7?

Please help, I am from the Middle East and I just followed all steps of uploading the theme to the mod file and emptied all cache on my safari and kept the theme at the end of the plugins list. Still my website appears to have a primitive white and black look and the theme is not active , how can I make the theme work? please help me!

You got it, that will display the Spotlight again.
Yes, RedFashion Elgg Theme has not been upgraded for Elgg v1.7 yet but it did work on my local Xampp install besides some minor things. It can be customized though. I’ll send you an email for this project.

Thanks. Since i had already modified the Spotlight in the free version, i had to copy the default.php from this folder also. BTW i’m also interested in your Red Fashion theme. Here’s my link: http://fashionclubmiami.com/sn

It doesn’t work in either Firefox & IE. maybe it’s that i’m using elgg 1.7. Regardless, i know you can fix the problem. Please let me know the price of this theme and maybe a way i could incorporate your theme into this site: http://fashionclubmiami.com without having to create a link from the site to the Red Fashion site. Thanks
