Well "Look and Feel" is more of a bundle of visual settings/themes for the
desktop (colors, window decoration, desktop theme, etc).
As far is know with the exemption of "icons"  and "mouse cursors" they are KDE
specific.

For me all of the available ones but https://store.kde.org/p/1084930/ and
https://store.kde.org/p/1149921/ install fine. Some have icon issues though.

Which is the one giving you problems?

I did as you said, in the "?" button it was told to insall xdgurl. I installed
xdgurl and clicked on the "install" button as instructed. A dialog opened "Do
you want to install XXX?". I clicked OK, download finished and a dialog
appeared "Installation successful". I clicked on "Open".  It opened
"~/.local/share/plasma/look-and-feel/", but the directory is empty and the
theme is not in my "Look and Feel" themes. Even by downloading and manually
unzipping the theme to its place it is not shown.

After some tinkering it seems that I have problems only with some themes using
xdgurl. Can themes be platform specific or something?

If the file you are about to download is not hosted in https://store.kde.org,
installing this way may encounter issues.

Click on the name of the theme so it opens in your browser, hit the "file" tab
then "?" right to the "install" bottom and fallow the instructions.

This may help you for the specific theme you want to install.
