The theme directory "twentytwentyfour" does not exist.

[flexseth]

Error when booting in wp-content mode without a theme in the folder.

The theme directory "twentytwentyfour" does not exist.
Error: The themes directory is either empty or does not exist. Please check your installation.

Why is this a problem

A theme is necessary to run any WordPress website. Let's make sure one is available.

Suggested fix

If no theme is in the wp-content/themes folder, install Twenty Twenty-Four

Step to install Twenty Twenty-Four (doesn't work but seems like it should)

{
	"step": "installTheme",
            "themeZipFile": {
                "resource": "wordpress.org/themes",
                "slug": "twentytwentyfour"
            },
            "options": {
                "activate": true
            }	
}

Affects

• VS Code Extension booted in wp-content mode
• wp-now when booted in wp-content mode

How to re-create the issue

• Clone the https://github.com/adamziel/playground-docs-workflow repo
• Click "Start Server" in VS Code or run wp-now
• npx @wp-now/wp-now start --wp=6.5.2 --php=8.0 --blueprint=blueprint.json

blueprint.json

{
	"$schema": "https://playground.wordpress.net/blueprint-schema.json",
	"landingPage": "/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=doc_page",
	"preferredVersions": {
		"wp": "6.4",
		"php": "7.4"
	},
	"features": { "networking": true },	
	"login": true,
	"steps": [
		{
			"step": "unzip",
			"zipFile": {
				"resource": "url",
				"url": "https://github-proxy.com/partial/adamziel/playground-docs-workflow/wp-content"
			},
			"extractToPath": "/wordpress"
		},
		{
			"step": "activatePlugin",
			"pluginPath": "wp-docs-plugin/plugin.php"
		},
		{
			"step": "installTheme",
            "themeZipFile": {
                "resource": "wordpress.org/themes",
                "slug": "twentytwentyfour"
            },
            "options": {
                "activate": true
            }	
		}
	]
}

I double checked the syntax on the blueprint with the {} and it's correct

networking is enabled - but possibly the culprit?

Looks like it may be a URL or "resource type" issue
