{Solved} Plasma Themes From store.kde.org

[Ezingers]

I been having problems with the kdm windows decorations is how this all started. I installed Debian 8.7.1 with the KDE platform and when i went to (System Settings - Workspace Appearance - Window Decorations) and clicked on (Get New Decorations), it dose nothing. It just says (Initializing). Even when clicking on the (Installed) choices, it wont even show the installed decorations.

I sense then loaded Debian 8.8.0 with the KDE platform thinking that this would be fixed in the updated version. It's not. Went threw the same thing. So I went online and found this answer on a forum site.

"Most of the theme-related stuff moved recently from opendesktop.org (kde-look.org) to store.kde.org (looks like kde-look.org now redirects to the new store).  You may need to load the new providers.xml file for the new store. Open System Settings -> Social Desktop. There should be a combo-box with the provider(s) to manage, beside which will be buttons to add and remove providers. If the combo-box doesn't have store.kde.org then add it, using the URL: https://store.kde.org/ocs/providers.xml (and then remove any provider for opendesktop.org)".

So I go to (Account Details - Social Desktop) and it wants a user name and password or wants me to register one. I click on the (Register) tab and fill out the form and click on the (Register) button, and it dose nothing. I click back to (Login) tab to login. I click on (Test Login) and it dose nothing. So I figured I'd just try the (Add Provider) button and add the https://store.kde.org/ocs/providers.xml to the field and click the (OK) button, and I couldn't tell what it did. It didn't show up anywhere. Even the (Remove Provider) button was still disabled.

Sense my window decorations wasn't working in KDE system settings for Debian 8.8.0. I went to https://store.kde.org to try to download some plasma themes myself. Well I couldn't. Found out that I needed to install ocs-url. So I went on line and and found a ,deb download for this and installed it. Installing the themes work just fine after that. I check the /home/user name/,local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/ and /home/user name/,local/share/plasma/look-and-feel/ and the files are there. but they're not showing up in (System Settings - Workspace Appearance). How can I fix the (Window Decorations)? And how can I apply the downloaded themes in the /home/user name/,local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/ and /home/user name/,local/share/plasma/look-and-feel/ directories to my desktop?

What version of KDE do those themes support?

Not sure. Most of them don't specify.
