How to use a Envato theme on a Google site

[TGoedde]

I have a site that a client started and wants made better looking. So I purchased a theme from Envato. It is NOT a Wordpress theme. I see "Themes, Import Theme" but don't see how to import the new theme package. All it shows is the simple theme already in use under the Recent heading. Envato doesn't show documentation that I can find.

I don't think you can import third-party themes like those offered on Envato's marketplace. Google Sites' themes are very basic. You can create a custom theme from within Google Sites (basically apply your own styling), export it and then import that into another Google Site.

Google Sites doesn't really have a full-fledged theming system like you would find in Wordpress.

@TGoedde Google Sites is not a HTML/CSS based platform, it's a self-contained tool with its own Theme Builder, called Custom Themes.  If you need advice and guidance on how to make your own Custom Theme then see the instructions we provide free of charge on our site:
