Are You Sure You Want To Do This?
You may encounter this error while installing a theme or plugin through the WordPress admin panel. Please note that this is not a theme-related issue 🙂.
How to fix it
If you are not using a fresh WordPress installation, try deactivating all plugins and attempt the installation again.
Check your PHP configuration limits and ensure they meet the following recommended values:
| Item | Limit |
|---|---|
| memory_limit | 512M |
| post_max_size | 64M |
| upload_max_filesize | 64M |
| max_execution_time | 300 |
| max_input_vars | 3000 to 5000 |

Alternatively, the theme can be uploaded via FTP. However, it is still recommended to update the configuration limits above, as they are required for the normal functioning of WordPress, themes, and plugins.
