Installed Themes not showing under Manage Themes

So I am brand new to MainWP, but 25 years full time in IT, it seems very straight forward. Install Theme, check box for both sites, wait for complete, do it 2x on Astra & Envo.

Nothing is showing under Manage Themes, not the ones pre-installed or the newly installed ones.

Also I did a Test Extension Install of Succuri and the Vulnerability Check, but neither of them went to the Child Site, they only installed on the Main Site. Do extensions only run on the Main Site and then perform their activity on the Child Site somehow??

Thanks for Help! Looking forward to using this for a long time :slight_smile:

Here you can see 5 themes exist, but none are in MainWP

ALSO, I have ASKIMET Spam installed outside of MainWP and it does not appear in this list.

So do Plugins have to be installed through MainWP in order to display here?

It is not clear at all that the Child Plugin must be installed on the Main site for it to be included in the panel. I did not figure this out until the main site wasn’t showing up in MainWP and so I just went and installed it to see. This info should definitely be included in the Instructions more clearly, "Install BOTH Plugins on main site right up front"

Slightly confused about Keys! Do you have to make a New Key every time you make some more changes to any plugin and then go through the whole process of copying / pasting / updating?

Not a big deal, but wanted to point out the Server Information screen is in conflict with the actual data output by the site (see attached). My reported server memory is above 64MB and Curl is 300 Seconds, but the Admin still shows Warnings for both. I also confirmed with my host memory is 256mb and Curl is 300, so the Dashboard appears to be reading from a different place than the report is :slight_smile:

Hi Jay, I will be happy to help.

First, let me clear that MainWP Extensions don’t have to be installed on child sites. Extensions should be installed only on your dashboard site.

Regarding the Manage Themes section, can you please tell me what happens when you select your child sites, select wanted theme activity status, and run the search:
image

Do you get some error message or the process just stalls?

Regarding the server information, please note that PHP Memory Limit is not the same as WP Memory Limit, also if the cURL Timeout has been increased recently, you may need to reboot the server before the change takes effect. Here you can see more details about resolving system requirement issues.
