* Some hostings have a restriction on a size of a file that you are uploading. If you have any warning, you will contact your hosting provider. They should increase your maximum upload size. Or you can refer [this article](https://skygroup.ticksy.com/article/15703) and try doing it by yourself.
* If you get the error message: *"The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet."*, it means that you didn't upload the theme package. You will need to extract your package and install the Handix.zip file inside.
