WordPress Installation

To install this theme you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. If you need help installing WordPress, follow the instructions in WordPress Codex site. Below are all the useful links for WordPress information.

Theme Installation

There are multiple ways you can go about installing the theme. But we recommend you to install theme via "Emvato Market" plugin as it will also enable one-click theme update too. Here are steps:

Install theme via "Envato Market" plugin

- First, install Envato Market plugin. Click here to download the plugin. This will download the zip file with the plugin in it. No need to unzip it – we’ll be installing it as is. Now that you have the plugin, go ahead and log into WordPress admin section.

- To install the plugin navigate to Plugins > Add New and click on the Upload Plugin button at the top of the page:

- Next browse for the "envato-market.zip" file that you downloaded:

- Then click the button to Install Now and when prompted click the Activate Plugin link.

- Now that the plugin is installed and active you should see a new Envato Market menu item in your WordPress dashboard.

Envato Market Plugin Setup

- To get started click on the "Envato Market" link in your dashboard menu. You should see a screen similar to the one below. The very first step is to create an Envato API token. To do this, click on the generate a personal token link (highlighted in red below).

- If you’re already logged into your Envato account you’ll be taken to the screen above (otherwise you will be prompted to login first before being redirected to this page). On this screen you can see what the Envato Market plugin is requesting permission to access via your Envato account (Envato sites, the ability to download your items, a list of your purchases and verification of your purchases). To proceed give your token a name, check the box that you have read and agree to the terms and then click the green button to create your token.

- Once your token is created you will see a green success screen. Copy your token code (this is very important since Envato doesn’t store a copy of the token for you), check to confirm that you’ve copied it and click the white button that you got it.

- Now go back to your WordPress installation and paste in your Envato API token then click save.

It’s possible that you might see the error (shown below) when you first enter your token. Don’t worry, just go back to the previous page and try again. It should work on the second go.

2. After theme purchase, you need to download it. Simply log into your account, go to your downloads and locate your theme. Click on the download button and select the “Installable WordPress file only”. This will download the zip file for your theme. Make sure you select the “Installable WordPress file only” option. This is theme correct zip file. If you will download “All files & documentation” it will download zip pack, inside you will find, theme zip file, documentation, demo data and other helpful files, in this case you will need unzip full theme pack and theme install theme zip.If you will theme install wrong file, you will get "stylesheet error" in WordPress installation, make sure that you theme install correct files.

3. After downloading correct files log in your WordPress and make sure that your WordPress is up to date. Then goto appearance > themes > upload theme > and upload correct files after that activate theme, by pressing "activate" button.

4. Then you will see a message with required plugin installation, press theme install plugins. Select all checboxes and press theme install then activate plugins. Now your theme is installed correctly and all plugins installed and activated.

Installation and Demo Import Troubleshoots

If you have issues with theme installation or with importing demo data, there can be some kind of reasons, based on your hosting or software configurations. Main reasons list:

• Your WordPress should be upto date
• Your PHP version should be compatible with your WordPress version
• Your hosting memory limit and timeout limit should be enough to theme install theme and import demo data

Instructions about menory limit increase. You should check your php.ini configurations at your server/hosting. Ninzio team recommends to change these options in your php.ini file:

max_input_vars (default is 1000) set to 3000
post_max_size (default is “8M”) set to 2000M
upload_max_filesize (default is “2M”) set to 64M
max_execution_time (default is “30”) set to 180
max_input_time (default is “-1”) set to 180
memory_limit (default is “128M”) set to 3000M
							

If you don’t have access to your php.ini file, ask your hosting/server provider, they should configure it for you

Theme Translation

1. You need to download and install poEdit program from here https://poedit.net/download

2. Then goto ftp > wp-conetent > themes > your theme folder > languages. There you will find .pot file

3. Double click on the .pot file. In the Poedit window click on the "Create New Translation" button, choose the necessary language of the translation from the dropdown list and click "OK."

4.Now select the constant text string you need to translate from the "Source text - English" field and type in the necessary translation into the "Translation" field. You can translate as much as you want, just go through the file and click on each string in Poedit and add your translation.

5. Next, you have to save the changes to your .po file using the naming convention based on the language code (e.g. pt for Portuguese) followed by the country code (for instance _BR for Brazil). To do that click on the "sheet" icon (you can also use hotkeys CMD+Shift+S in OS X or Win+S in Windows) and type in the name according to the screenshot below. The first lower-case letters define the language, whereas the second upper-case letter defines the country. Also add theme name with dash. So the structure will be like this:

<THEMENAME>-<LANGUAGECODE>_<COUNTRYCODE>.po

Example: themename-pt_BR.po Basically you just need to select language/country code that you selected in WordPress admin section that you selected.
