For wordpress specific support, you might be better asking on their forums
or one of the many wordpress sub reddits.

the problem was from the system in here
i installed wp on another hosting it worked once i changed the theme it changed
so whatâs the problem here >?
Given how many people install and run wordpress here, I doubt itâs an Infinity free issue specifically. More likely a glitch with youâre install
i installed it on the other website it worked same steps
so tell me how to install it here no issues ?
If you read the guides here, thereâs lots of information about how to install wordpress.
Iâm not even saying that you made a mistake. You might have done everything right and a system bug caused something to break. Computers are not infalliable.
To quote the famous Jean Luc-Picard âIt is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life.â
i uploaded wordpress manually how to install it
Honestly, I dont know having never done it myself.
The reccomended aproach is to install in through softaculous

Installing WordPress here works exactly the same as it works anywhere else. WordPress can run basically anywhere where you have PHP and MySQL. We provide PHP and MySQL, which works exactly the same as PHP and MySQL works anywhere else.
There is zero reason for theme switching to work or not work here but not somewhere else.
There could be a hundred thousand WordPress installations on our hosting, so if theme switching didnât work on our hosting, you wouldnât be the only one talking about it.
I donât know why switching themes doesnât work for you. It seems youâve been able to switch it successfully multiple times so far (your site looks different now than it did in your last screenshot, and neither are default WordPress themes as far as I know), so I donât really see what is the problem to begin with.

Looks like youâve managed to switch themes now:
Like i said, maybe there was a temporary bug, or a bad config thats fixed. I canât say for certain.

no i didnât manage anything i moved the dns back to infinity uploaded the downloaded zip files from wp site
didnât even install it yet
I had a quick look at your installed site and it appears to be installed.
Specifically, it appears to have been installed by Softaculous.
If you want to install WordPress by hand instead, you can definitely do that. But then you should first remove the current WordPress installation. If you just upload the WordPress files on top of the existing website, then WordPress will see the wp-config.php created by Softaculous and assume itâs the configuration (and database) to use.
That said, your website is using the same WordPress theme that @dan3008 saw before, so it seems that theme switching worked? Or do you see something else?

Bitnami is an application deployer that can be used to install WordPress (as well as an entire selection of other scripts and applications) on your computer or on cloud servers. However, it doesnât support InfinityFree (or any other shared hosting service for that matter).
Your best bet is to install WordPress using InfinityFreeâs instance of Softaculous instead.
