Deal Plazza Doesnt Install on Joomla 3.1.4

I Just purchased Deal Plazza template and have been trying to install it on my Joomla 3.1.4 cms
It says it cannot find the XML file
How do I fix it?
I just wasted my money

Hello

No i don't think you've wasted your money...
You just need to unzip the file package first. Then you will get the template installation file inside. Also you can read the documentation inside the package. Have you tried that?

I read the documentation to manually install the template yes
I have uploaded all the files to my templates folder but now how would I actually install it since Template Manager will not allow me to?
I tried using the quickstart that they give but that installs another version of Joomla 2.5
I already have content and users on my normal site so unless I can migrate the 3.1.4 to the 2.5 I can switch it to the main site but as I said it gives me the missing xml file error if I just try to upload and install the zip file
If I was to install manually how would I go about doing so?

Hi

First of aplogize me to not explain you this at the first chance. This deals plazza package is only support Joomla 2.5 as you should already read in it's landing page here
www.templateplazza.com/products/design/j...ument/16-deal-plazza

the reason is:
Deal Plazza uses 2 popular Joomla Components, K2 and Virtuemart.
K2 is used to handle the 'deal' function and Virtuemart will be used to handle payment / online purchase. As we need Virtuemart to handle payment/purchase then we're afraid to say that at the moment Virtuemart is not support for Joomla 3..0.x/3.1.x as you can read on their official site or on one of their forum question

forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=114075.0

So you need to build this deals site in Joomla 2.5.x I'm afraid.

Hopefully your contents are still not huge enough to start the downgrade if you really need to build this deals-alike site.

Hope that clear enough....
