[SOLVED] Where/How To Install Additional Themes

I've successfully installed CMS locally and I'd like to add the themes I downloaded from the website. I have 4 .zip files and two .xml files. What do I do with the .xml files?

I assume that the zipped files get unzipped in /var/www/htdocs/cmsms/admin/templates. Is that correct?

TIA,

Rich

I found the Wiki page describing what to do and tried this with the BizBuzz theme. After importing the BizBuzz.xml and making that theme the default, I tried viewing my site. No theme at all; a menu list on the left is all I see, so I'm still missing something despite reading the README file in that theme's directory.

I learned that this requires a combination of the theme manager to import the themes, and the template manager to select them.
