I have been using Backlight for my gallery for a couple years, yet still using the CE4 WordPress theme. Decided tonight to migrate that portion too. Bought the WP-Backlight module and installed it.
The theme does not show up in my WP theme panel? I still see the CE4, but not the BL version.
I note that the YouTube on installing says to put the "module-wordpress" folder into the 'modules' folder on my ftp. However, the 123 version supplies a "pangolin-wordpress" folder instead. I assumed that the folder had just been renamed, and put it in the "modules" folder, but to no avail.
I had hoped to include a screenshot of my ftp hierarchy, but I don't see a facility for that here. Instead, I put that screenshot in my DropBox -- https://www.dropbox.com/s/rrgvwvv43h9cv … y.png?dl=0
I expect there is something simple I am missing. Any idea what it is?

Did you create a new theme and export it to WordPress?

@rod -- Thanks! That was the problem. The YouTube said to just drop in the module and it would appear, and didn't say anything about that step.
I followed the link you showed. After some fiddling, and a few moments of panic (when my website lost all the blog images!?), I think I now have it up and running properly.
As is right now, I don't see any significant difference between the CE4 blog and the Backlight blog. I will explore things a bit more in the next couple days. There is one particular feature that I thought I would be getting in the update that is clearly not there, but I will create a separate post for that (static page issue).
