Problem:
If you are using Safari browser on a Mac and you can’t find the zipped file to install, but you see the folder pt-content-views-pro
=> The reason is the Safari browser unzipped the file automatically
=> The solution:
+ download Pro package by another browser (Chrome, Firefox), you will get the original zipped file
+ or right click on the folder pt-content-views-pro
, then select Compress “pt-content-views-pro” to make a new zipped file.
The folder name must be
pt-content-views-pro
, otherwise CVPro will not able to work.
