I'm having a problem uploading a theme builder json file

    Hi there,
    I just a theme from the divi marketplace and I am having trouble, I am unable to upload/install the divi-theme-builder.json file. I will provide all details here - I hope someone can help. I imagine others might be having a similar issue. This is not a library issue, it is a theme file for the global headers/footers.
    * This was a fresh wordpress install. The website is www.musicforasong.com
    * I was able to install Divi 4 and the main theme successfully.
    * I was able to install the divi-theme-option.json file.
    * I was able to import the demo content successfully
    * I have updated the PHP file to the recommended server requirements (above them actually)
    * I thought it might be a server issue, so I tried uploading this file on other divi websites at TWO other hosting accounts, and the same problem persists.
    * I also tried downloading the whole theme again, extracting it newly, just in case the file got messed up while unzipping. Still nothing.
    * The most bizarre part of this is that I do not get an error message - only a red circle with an X in the middle flashes briefly (instead of the green check mark of course).
    * My hosting account support says everything is fine on their end.

    Any suggestions?
    Thank you in advance for the help!

    It's best for you to contact the theme developer for installation guide.

    I would guess it's because you import the json file in the wrong context, thus it fail. For the divi-theme-builder.json, I would guess you need to import it at WP Admin > Divi > Theme Builder > Import icon:

    If still doesn't work, it's best for you to contact the theme developer directly. It might be a corrupted json or wrong context.
