How To install Theme

Installing your Themepul theme in WordPress is a simple process, but it must be done correctly to ensure all features, demo content, and plugins work properly. Below are step-by-step instructions for installing your theme.

Step 1: Prepare the Theme Package

1. Download the theme from ThemeForest (or Themepul’s official download link).
2. If you downloaded “All Files & Documentation”, unzip the package.
3. Locate the installable WordPress theme .zip file (usually named like themename.zip). Do not upload the entire unzipped folder—WordPress will not recognize it.

Step 2: Install the Theme via WordPress Dashboard

A. Using the Dashboard Upload Method

1. Log in to your WordPress Admin Dashboard (https://yourdomain.com/wp-admin).
2. Navigate to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
3. Click Choose File, select the theme .zip file, and click Install Now.
4. After the upload finishes, click Activate to make it your live theme.

B. Using FTP (Alternative Method)

1. Connect to your server via FTP using credentials from your hosting provider.
2. Navigate to /wp-content/themes/.
3. Upload the unzipped theme folder here.
4. Go to WordPress Dashboard → Appearance → Themes and Activate the theme.

Step 3: Install Required Plugins

Many Themepul themes rely on plugins for extra functionality, such as the Topper Pack plugin.

1. After activating the theme, you may see a notice at the top of the dashboard.
2. Click Begin Installing Plugins.
3. Select all recommended plugins and click Install, then Activate.

⚠️ Note: Installing these plugins is necessary to use demo content and all theme features.

Step 4: Import Demo Content (Optional)

To make your website look like the demo:

1. Go to Appearance → Import Demo Data (or follow the theme’s documentation).
2. Choose the demo content you want to import.
3. Click Import, and wait until the process completes.

⚠️ Tip: Ensure your PHP configuration limits are sufficient (memory_limit, max_execution_time, max_input_vars) to avoid import failures.
