    why don't your browse through the directory and install the themes and plugins manually. You can go to www.yoursite.com/wp-content/ themes for installing themes or www.yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins for installing plugins. Go to these folders, upload the plugins or themes manually and they active the same from wordpress blog. It should work.

    Hi!

    Can I have access to your blog. The main site where you have hosted and your wordpress login details. You need to tell me which themes and plugins to install and I will try my best to do it. You can send the details to me by PM.
