I can't use or actived my newly installed themes, help!

I'm getting this error all the time trying to activate a Theme. Help!

QuoteAn Error Has Occurred
Use of undefined constant silk - assumed 'silk' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP)

Make sure the theme is version compatible otherwise don't complain as it definitely will not work.

Seems the theme Silk_af_v156 was the issue, after deleting it - it now works.

Your website theme section. I guess it might not be for the newest version of ElkArte. Anyway I canceled out the thing that made the issue in the code and it worked somewhat, at least it did not give any error. But I'm pretty much down to 2 themes for use. The standard with the small menu at the top and the Clean black Theme. So far so good, looked at all the themes as far as I know from the Theme section. By the way there was one Theme which download link did not work although I can't recall which, one of the older once if my memory serves me right.

Roger I'll do that, I did put the name for the Theme that is broken :) Although I did not post a link for it. Also I've seen 2 places where the text seem to have some issues on the webpage, but I'll get back on that if I see the issues again.

hmm... the search is not working so I couldn't find it and was asking for a link to the theme itself. Oh well, found it:
https://themes.elkarte.net/creative/Silk.html
and indeed is for 1.0 (as written in the download button).
Maybe it is necessary to have some other sticker around to better show with what is compatible.
