Installation
Please check installation video for detailed installation process.
Before installation please check if you are using most recent PHP. At the moment we support PHP 7.x and PHP 5.6.x. Versions below 5.6.x are not supported. We always recommend to use at least VPS services for full control on your WordPress site. But if you are not familiar with the VPS don't worry, regular hosting programs should be fine as well.
If you have download the package on your local computer you can start with the installation. Please prepare ZIP file containing "style.css" in root directory. Navigate in admin into "Themes" section and select your ZIP file. Now you can confirm an upload. After the upload you have to set theme as default.
If theme installation was successful you should see a message about installing additional plugins. Please install all required plugins. If theme contains one click installation run it as well. You can check if theme has one click installation under "Tools" section.
In one click installation we are not bundling original images. We are using mainly only placeholders which have only one color. We are using this approach because downloading all images from demo server could take a lot of time so we decided to use only placeholders to improve installation experience.
After installation is always good idea to check the permalinks under "Settings - Permalinks". Always make sure that you are using "Post name" option. After selecting the post name don't forget to save the permalinks. By this action all permalink option in WordPress site are regenerated.
Theme & Plugin Options
All options coming from our themes or plugins are stored in "Appearance - Customizer". One of the most important sections is "EduHub Pages" section where you can configure all important options. Please check that page and make sure that you follow instructions described under each option field. Another section available in "Customizer" is "EduHub General". At the moment only one option "Full course" is available, only if the WooCommerce active. If you are looking for selling full access to all content, create new WooCommerce product and assign it to this option.
After Enabling Theme
When theme is enabled, notification message with the list of missing plugins is displayed. Please make sure that you install and activate all plugins. Then you can process to one click installation available under "Tools - One Click Installation".
