Yes, this is what happened is you install themes manually. But I don't think the OP means this, I guess he means the "no themes found" message when trying to install additional themes.

I am using the newest version - r18116.. Maybe that has something to do with it?

The themes syntax changed a while ago. All themes with incorrect syntax will get rejected, i.e. the offending part will not get load. This part is the wps, thus everything else loads. Your theme is outdated.

Please check the forums first, this is a rather common issue lately.

And how would i know if a Theme was outdated? I downloaded it today..

If it doesn't work, it's outdated.

It's very safe to say that every theme downloaded from the rockbox-themes.org site will be out-dated since no submissions are being accepted anymore.  The themes on the wiki on this site will hopefully say whether or not they work with the new syntax.  The best bet is to look at the most recent update date and if it's from before the syntax change, the theme probably needs at least a little bit of fixing to work.

So is the only place to find themes that will work with the current build on the wiki? Where on the wiki are they, as I cannot find them.
