How do i install Quickstart drimia for joomla 1.0.13? I want to have an exact copy of the drimia website and I read that when I install quickstart that this will be the case.
When I do this at the install templates section I get an error that the xml file is not for a template.
Can someone help me?

Thanks

you need to upload the whole quickstart file (it is a zip) to your server and unzip it there,

if you have cpanel this will do it quickly and easily with the file manager

or….

unzip the quickstart to your local drive and then FTP all of it to your server. I use filezilla,

if your not on a broadband connection this could take time

make sure you create a database

then on the database install page select install sample data

I unzipped the quickstart to my local drive and then I put it on my ftp.
What do you mean with create a database?
When I put the quickstart on my ftp I go to my website and it says: delete the map installation completely and then come back again. So I remove the installation folder on the ftp and then I see the template.
But still I don’t see the four spotlight modules. How do I put these online? And can I put these online with my own pictures and text?

Thanks!

It appears the Quickstart zip file is a full blown version of joomla with the template integrated. So, I gather this is the same as doing a fresh joomla install, not a simple template installation. Is this correct/
