PARADOX once you installed something with composer you need to enable it from the admin area of Flarum still. Have you done that?

No , where is that option in admin control panel of flarum ? With what title this option is named ?

luceos

PARADOX every extension has its own tab, you should look for asirem, it should be under a section called themes on the left hand side in the admin area.

i am ready to give you admin access , can you please help me with this , i am still not getting that option

If nothing appears in the admin panel, make sure you are running the Composer commands in the correct directory (the one containing composer.json file, flarum file and vendor folder)

my flarum website is in my subdomain , what shoud be the composer command for installing that theme ?

PARADOX

my directory paths in site.php is

'base' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/',
'public' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/',
'storage' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/storage',

PARADOX it doesn't really matter if the website is in a subdomain, subfolder or other. Just look for the folder that contains all 3 of those files.

(if you previously ran the command in the wrong folder, it will have created a composer.json and vendor in the wrong location, so look for flarum and config.php as extra verification)

From your additional message, that location is very likely /home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/

wait u said don't run the command in wrong folder , i am not familliar with the commander or composer

i just open my hosting cpanel and there is 'Terminal' , i just went there and i paste that installation command
composer require afrux/asirem and composer require sycho/flarum-advanced-extension-categories

and that's it ohh yes i checked it right now there is a folder named vender in my home directory which shoud be in my subforum directory

PARADOX use the cd command to change directory inside of the terminal, like cd /home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/. Then you can run Composer.
