Then you need to post for support from where ever you downloaded that style from. The file may be incomplete or corrupt.

Read the error again closely, then look at your options......



And again, Questions/Problems regarding modifications/styles need to be asked in the modification/style thread. That is where the support for modification/style is - not out here in the main forums. Please note that if a modification/style is unsupported (or even if it says it is supported), you may be on your own if you chose to install it.

All you have to do is check the checkbox ignore version or edit the xml to remove or change the version

Choose "yes" on "Ignore style version" when uploading the xml style file.

Your original problem was caused by trying to upload a style xml as a product, producing the first error, as you said here:

Styles are not product files, as vBulletin correctly informed you.
