If you feel some aspect is not covered or have some questions, contact us via e-mail sales@mojoomla.com. We will do our best to answer you in shortest of time.

  2. Misc folder contains plugins.zip, Sample_data.zip and PSD zip.
  3. Documentaion folder

2) Getting Started

To install this theme you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. For more information regarding installing the WordPress platform, please see the WordPress Codex - http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress
Please note that we do not give support or any questions related on how to install and maintain wordpress. For any faulty installation that may cause your website or our theme malfunction you should refer to wordpress support forum. Alternatively you can get help from your web hosting.


3) Installation:

If you've downloaded whole theme package, unzip it. There you will find the theme installation file , documentaion, Sample_data.zip, license folder, PSD files etc.

Alternatively you can simply download the installable WordPress file.

When you are ready to install the theme, you must first upload the theme files and then activate the theme. For this purpose, unzip the file that you downloaded from themeforest and there you would find theme (kybully.zip) file and upload it via wordpress installer. The theme files can be uploaded in two ways

A. FTP Upload

  1. Unzip the " kybully.zip " file
  2. Upload the extracted "kybully" theme folder into "/wp-content / themes/" in your wordpress installation
  3. To Activate the theme, Go to Appearance > Themes and activate the installed theme

 

B. WordPress Upload

  1. Navigate to Appearance > Themes
  2. Click Add New button and finally hit the Upload Theme
    Install theme
  3. Click on Choose File and find the "kybully.zip" file on your computer and click Install Now button
  4. The theme will be uploaded and installed
  5. To Activate the theme, Go to Appearance > Themes and activate the installed theme

Warning:
Please be informed that you should not upload the whole item you have downloaded from Themeforest as you will get an error of broken stylesheet file. Instead locate the kybully.zip file inside the main file you have downloaded.
While installing your theme through wordpress admin, you may encounter an error message saying "are sure you want to do this?" This is mainly due to your hosting php settings. In some hosting the default value for max_upload_limit left default which is 2mb. To solve this problem you should either increase your maximum upload size (to 50mb) on your hosting admin panel or ask your host to do it for you if you do not have the privilege to alter your server php settings. This is a very common request and they should be able to help you out. Once the limit is increased you can re-try the install and you'll be all good to go.

    WordPress memory can be different to the server – you need to set this regardless of server memory settings
  • If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini If your line shows 32M try 64M:
    max_execution_time= 120 ; Maximum execution time of each script 
    memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
  • If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:

19) Child Theme.

A child theme is a theme that inherits the functionality of another theme, called the parent theme. Child themes allow you to modify, or add to the functionality of that parent theme. A child theme is the best, safest, and easiest way to modify an existing theme, whether you want to make a few tiny changes or extensive changes. Instead of modifying the theme files directly, you can create a child theme and override within.

Why use a Child Theme?

  1. If you modify an existing theme and it is updated, your changes will be lost. With a child theme, you can update the parent theme (which might be important for security or functionality) and still keep your changes.
  2. It can speed up development time.
  3. It's a great way to get started if you are just learning WordPress theme development.
A) Install and active child theme

FTP Upload

  1. Unzip the " kybully-child.zip " file
  2. Upload the extracted "kybully-child" theme folder into "/wp-content / themes/" in your wordpress installation

WordPress Upload

  1. Navigate to Appearance > Themes
  2. Click Add New button and finally hit the Upload Theme
    Install theme
