I have a theme that i created a while ago which is installed on the customers website without the editor included.
Now i need to change something and wanted to install the version i have with the editor, but the zipfile is corrupt. So my question is if it is possible to make the theme editable again so i can update it.

Hello,

The only way is to re-export the theme with the editor included. If you have the theme created with Themler desktop, it should be saved locally at the path like C:\ProgramData\Themler\hd_data\themler_xxxxxxxxx\joomla.
You may try to zip-compress your theme folder and install it in your CMS.
Or edit it in Themler desktop and then export.

Sincerely,
Nettie

I never use the desktop tool on my Mac because i prefer to develop on a real website so that i see that all the content is set the way i want it to.

Hello,

Please try to export theme zip in different conditions - for example, with another browser, with browser add-ons disabled, with antivirus or firewall disabled. If the .zip was corrupted, it ,ay have happened in the process of downloading it in a browser.

But i don't have an original version with editor running anymore. I even downloaded the oldest backup i could find, but it was also without the editor

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is no way to put Themler editor back into the theme. It might be possible to recover the .zip in question (with Themler included) with some tool for zip-recovery, but for now that i all we can suggest.

Edwin,
Unfortunately, we can't update exported theme manually, it would require a PHP developer and a lot of changes in the files.
