Description

If I try to install a theme through the admin interface of WordPress I get the following error message:

"Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/*mydomain*/domains/*mydomain*.com/public_html/wp-admin/includes/theme-install.php on line 265"

Since I didn't do anything with this file I assume it's a bug.

The common reason for this is a archive structure which is incompatible with what WordPress expects.

Can you link to/attach the archive in question? (Or you can email it to me: wordpress [at] dd32.id.au)

Quite possibly a duplicate of #14999 (Rejecting invalid archives up front will prevent such notices being hit)

What do you mean with attaching the archive? Do you want me to attach the theme I'm trying to install? I have to say, though, that this error message occurs with any theme I'm trying to install.

  • Component changed from Upgrade/Install to Warnings/Notices
  • Keywords reporter-feedback removed
  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 3.3

Sorry, I've assumed this was happening when you were attempting to upload a Theme zip file.

Looking closer, I can see where it's coming from, If it's a site which has 0 themes currently installed, It'll throw that Notice.

No problem. ;)

Haha, yes, that quite explains everything since I had indeed 0 themes installed while I was trying to install a theme.

In [18462]:

Cast $themes to an array to avoid a PHP Warning when there are no themes currently installed. Fixes #18213
