Would anyone check that my simple window-decoration theme installs properly?

Hi all. I uploaded my first content to the KDE Store, a window-decoration theme named Ten-Blue-Opaque-Title: Ten-Blue-Opaque-Title Aurorae Theme - pling.com

I get some absurd behavior when I install it from the System Settings > Get more themes: when I install it, it shows as a clone of the Plastik theme (to which it is unrelated). However, if I rename the folder to ~/.local/share/aurorae/themes/Ten-Blue, then it works. I suspect some weird cache issue on my computer.

I’d appreciate it if someone checked that the theme installs correctly for anyone other than me, as well as if anyone has a clue why this happens to me and how to fix it.

The metadata.desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Blue Windows 10 Aeroglass theme with opaque title bars. A simple variant of the [Ten-Blue theme](https://store.kde.org/p/1002646/).
Name=Ten-Blue-Opaque-Title

X-KDE-PluginInfo-Name=Ten-Blue-Opaque-Title

You need to make sure the rc file has the same name as the folder, i.e. Ten-Blue-Opaque-Titlerc, not Ten-Bluerc. Then it works for me, after at first I can reproduce your issue.
