Hi,
Quick question, does anybody know what is going on with mdxthemes.com? We recently bought a template from them. Payment and downloading worked. Then we tried to install the template and it completely failed. We tried on internal and external servers with MODX installations of 2.2.14.
We documented everything with log exports and screenshots and contacted them through their support form, by email and finally also through their FB page. The email bounced. No reply anywhere else.
Are they still in business (outside of the business of taken money).

The documentation pages looks good.
At what point is your install failing?

1. I linked this issue to the original thread:
http://forums.modx.com/thread/84276/mdx-apostle--modx-revolution-template#dis-post-499850
2. The best way of installing themes is using ThemePackagerComponent
https://github.com/modxcms/ThemePackagerComponent // I don't say you can use it! If you get a dialogue with the author ask him about it.
3. MODX Cloud offers a free dev server. Why not try to see if it works there. So you can rule out it's not your MODX install that is the culprit.

FWIW: Jeroen Kenters has a video tutorial: "MODX OnElementNotFound tutorial"

This is an alternative way of uploading project files and folders that might be useful!

Hello Adrian,
Sorry for the inconvenience caused. There have been some email issues going on with my hosting. I had no idea about this post until Mrhaw posted a msg on one of my post.
Regarding the installation problem, please use the demo package installer to install the template. The template package created using themepackager component is buggy. I also reported the same to YJ and Mike.
Could you add me on skype: mdxdesigns
I will resolve your issues immediately.
Regards,
Mangesh

I have the same problem with the install of MDX Apostle like elgrandeadi.
I tried to install it on Revolution 2.2.14-pl and 2.3.0-pl. There are 3 different transport.zip's. None of them can be installed without any bigger trouble.
I moved to another server with better modx skills (TMDHosting.com). But it is the same failure or even others after skiping the old ones.
I bought the MDX Apostle theme to have a quick start and no trouble with the design.
I would say, Mengash should improve the install and deliver new transport.zip's to his clients. He must be a good expert because mdxthemes.com looks great, the demo-versions there, too. But with the current versions of Revoution it is impossible to install the theme.
