It's been a very long time since I've attempted to install and operate a MyBB-based forum. However, now that I'm trying to get one off the ground and running, I can't figure out how to install the theme I'm wanting to use.
My website URL is
www.referralindexforum.com. I have installed theme images into cPanel, and have uploaded the theme's .xml file to MyBB theme import. However, when I attempt to access my website after installing everything, the website is plain, just text and a few images. Could someone please review and let me know what I'm doing wrong?
I recognise that theme, installed it a few times without issue. I'd say your problem is broken styles - please read this support document:
https://docs.mybb.com/1.8/faq/styles/
Also see plenty of mixed content and other errors:

BTW, your signature link is broken with a SSL error.

Thank you for the information. The signature has been resolved.

You’ll also want to set up a redirect to force https:// and www. in the URL. The Board URL is set to http://referralindexforum.com but you've linked to https://www.referralindexforum.com, you'll want to make sure the Board URL is https://www.referralindexforum.com and that you force it to always redirect to https:// and www
I appreciate the information. SSL has been enabled and forced, but it still appears the same way for some reason.
Your site is still showing that it is loading mixed content. Meaning not all of your content is loading over SSL and could be part, if not all, of the reason you are having issues. See attachment below.

You should be able to use this in your
.htaccess file to redirect HTTP to HTTPS and also ensure all content is loaded securely as well, which will fix the mixed content issues.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
Header always set Content-Security-Policy "upgrade-insecure-requests;"
This has been resolved now. Thank you all so much for all of your help!
