Please give us some more information on how you are trying to install TP

Do you install through the package manager ? And if so, what package do you use ?

If you use the package manager and get this blank page after the install, download the manuall package and upload all the files from that package manually, then read the documentation on modinstruction and check so you have the code added to the SMF files properly.

No, I didÃ,´nt use the Package Manager, Ã,´cause that donÃ,´t work at all.
I have loaded the hole folder TP_0983 into my forum directory, using FileZilla.
Do I have to go on with the Code Modification?

Regards
Ralph

Don't get mad yet Ralph you're just getting started. :D

A link to your site so we can take a look would be helpful. Also, if you've made the changes to the files make sure you have uploaded all the TP files to your forum, and run the manual_tp_install.php file again just to be sure.

QuoteI have loaded the hole folder TP_0983 into my forum directory, using FileZilla.

Im not sure if you did this part correct.
You need to extract the package on your local machine and THEN upload the folders and files through FTP.
When you extract the package you have the "tree" as how the files should be added, so if you are in the forum root (where you have installed the forum) it should be correct when you ftp the extracted files.

IÃ,´ve extracted the files on my local machine, loaded them up to the server, downloaded every needed file to my machine again, made the code changes and loaded them up again.
The Link to my site is:

I would send you the login to my account as well, if you tell me, where to post it.

I could find only one leviathan theme. It is leviathan_11final_tp. Will this fit with my TP?

Their is both the SMF and TP version on the same download page. As long as it says the tp version as you stated you are fine.
