How to install
Updates: manual. When a new version comes out, download it on this same page and upload it over the old one; WordPress asks whether you want to replace the current version.
The file on this page is the developer’s full package, with documentation, demos and plugins. Do not upload that file to WordPress. The theme comes ready inside it, as a ZIP of its own, and that is the one you upload.
- Download the file
themeforest-12494864-buddyapp-mobile-first-community-wordpress-theme.zipand extract it on your computer. - Look inside the extracted files for the file
BuddyApp Files/Wordpress theme/buddyapp.zip. - In the WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme.
- Select that file and click Install Now.
- Click Activate.
- There is nothing to zip. The ZIP inside the package is already in the format WordPress accepts.
- Uploading the whole package is the most common mistake when installing a theme: WordPress answers that no valid theme was found, and nothing is installed.
- The rest of the package belongs to the author: documentation, demo files and, in some themes, the plugins it asks for during setup.
- The package also includes the plugin the theme uses, in
js_composer.zip. Upload this file in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin after activating the theme.
