# Install theme via FTP

If you get any failed installationresponse when installing the theme using the WordPress install function, we recommend using FTP.

1. If you have downloaded the Full Theme Package from ThemeForest, please unzip the package file to get the core theme file `brandy.zip`. Unzip the `brandy.zip` file; you'll get a folder called `brandy`.
2. Use an FTP client like [FileZilla](http://filezilla-project.org/) and upload the extracted folder to `wp-content/themes` folder on your host.
3. Log in to your WordPress Dashboard and navigate to **Appearance > Themes** and click the **Activate** button of the Brandy theme.
