    Theme Installation

    After you purchased the theme from ThemeForest, you’ll be able download theme package.

    When you downloaded theme package you extract and get folders like this:

    1. Document: all tutorial and description about our theme
    2. Licensing: license of theme
    3. milo-xxx.zip: main theme file to install.
    4. milo-xxx-child.zip: install and use this if you want to customize our theme. (You need to install main theme file first).

    There are 2 ways to install WordPress theme

    1. Install theme via WordPress Dashboard

    1. Step 1: Navigate to Appearance >> Themes
    2. Step 2: Click Add New, then click Upload Theme >> Choose File
    3. Step 3: Navigate the .zip file on your computer and click “Install Now”
    4. Step 4: Activate the newly installed theme by going to Appearance > Themes and clicking the Activate button.
    5. Step 5: IMPORTANT! After theme installation, at the top, you have a box with information about required and optional plugins. To install them and activate, please navigate to Appearance > Install Plugins section.
    2. Install theme via FTP

    SKIP THIS STEP if you have already successfully uploaded our theme via WordPress

    • Step 1: BACKUP YOUR FILES! Should do it before set up anything, this is always the safest.
    • Step 2: Unzip the milo-xx.zip file (usually is Extract Here if you use WinZip or 7Zip).
    • Step 3:  Login into your hosting server via an FTP client tool (We recommended to use FileZilla).

    • Step 5: Go to Appearance >> Themes and choose new theme has just installed and clicking the Activate button to active.
    • Step 6: Once your theme is installed and active you will get a prompt at the top of your Dashboard that will ask you to install Theme‘s plugins..
