Installing the theme

Important! if you download the All Files archive from ThemeForest and try to upload it to your WordPress, you will receive this error: Theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. Please make sure you unzipped the main archive and are uploading the correct file to your WordPress.

When you are ready to install a theme, you must first upload the theme files and then activate the theme itself. The theme files can be uploaded in two ways:

1. Using Theme Uploader

Follow the steps as instructed in the images below:

From the dashboard go to AppearanceThemesAdd New Upload Theme
Click on “Choose File” and select Vistro.zip
Click on “Install Now”.
Active the Theme

N.B: All plugins must be installed and activated if you want your site to look exactly like demo.

3.1.1 — Click on “Choose File” and select Vistro.zip and Click on “Install Now”.

2. Using FTP Clients

Follow the following steps to upload your theme using FTP clients:

Use an FTP such as FileZilla and go to your WordPress installation director
Navigate to /wp-content/themes/ folder and upload the theme folder there
Log in to your WP Admin Dashboard and open the AppearanceThemes menu
You will now see Vistro Theme listed among the other themes. Click on Activate and you’re done!

3. Updating Theme

Occationally we provide updates which includes new features and bugfixes. Updating WordPress theme is standard WordPress functionality.

Before Updating Theme:

** Before updating please make sure to keep a backup of your installed theme and plugins (eg. TP Core) to be on safe side.

You can use this plugin to keep the backup: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-theme-plugin-download/

There are few ways to update WordPress theme. You can follow any of the methods described below:

Method 1: Automatic Update by Using Envato Market Plugin

Install and activate the "Envato Market" plugin manually. Here's the plugin zip file: http://envato.github.io/wp-envato-market/dist/envato-market.zip
From WordPress Admin Panel, navigate to "Envato Market" menu.
In this page, you'll find a field for insering Envato Token. Insert your Envato Token Code from there. You can generate this code from this link: https://build.envato.com/create-token/?purchase:download=t&purchase:verify=t&purchase:list=t.
Remember, while generating the token, you have to login using the same envato id which you used to purchase theme.
After completed the above steps successfully, Navigate to Appearance -> Themes. Here you'll see an "Update now" link beside your theme. Click on that link and your theme will be updated automatically.

Here's a quick video tutorial explaining this method:

Method 2: By Uploading zip File

From WordPress Admin Panel, Navigate to Appearance -> Themes.
Activate any other theme (eg. Twenty Seventeen) than the current one.
Delete Vistro Theme.
Now you have to upload the updated theme zip file. To do this, Navigate to Appearance -> Themes -> Add New -> Upload. Go to browse, and select the zipped theme folder. Hit "Install Now" and the theme will be uploaded and installed.

Method 3: By FTP

Using your FTP client, navigate to "/wp-content/themes/" folder on your server and delete the "Vistro" folder from there.
Now upload the latest non-zipped theme folder into that "/wp-content/themes/" folder .

After Updating Theme:

** After updating the theme please update all plugins which come with the theme.

4. Installing required plugins

Vistro theme requires a set of core and additional plugins to function correctly. A plugin is an additional component that offers functionality and features beyond a typical WordPress installation. Without them, most of its functionality is not available. After installing the theme you will be prompted to install the required plugins at the top of your dashboard.

From the dashboard go to Appearance Install Plugins
Toggle all the required plugins and hint “Install”;
The last step will be activating the plugins.

Click on the begin installing plugins link to install all the required plugins.

Importing Demo Contents

We are providing you two methods for importing demo contents: Automatic and Alternative. You can follow either one of these methods.

One Click Method (Recommended): This method will remove all your existing data, so use this method only in fresh website. This procedure will be faster because you just have to do one click and then everything will happen automatically. If you want an exact clone of demo website without doing any manual configuration after importing data then this method is appropiate for you.
Manually Import: Use this method only if:
- Automatic demo import method fails ( Only few of our customers like 5% have experienced this issue due to their hosting limits, in that case we also provide free demo importing service if you contact with us).
- You already have a working website with existing contents(eg. posts, pages etc).

1. One Click Method

Want to build your site like the demo? You can do it by only one click!

Note: Please remember that when you are done with the demo import, your some existing settings will be replaced by the demo contents Like: Your menu, Customizer. So it is recommended that you should only do this in fresh site.

Ensure, that the One-Click Import plugin is installed and activated;
From the dashboard go to Appearance Demo Importer
Choose the demo you want to install and click on the “Import” button below;
And change the permalink: From the dashboard go to Settings Permalink

4.1.1 — go to Appearance -> Demo Importer

4.1.1 — Click "Continue & Import" Button

4.1.1 — **Import Complete!** Congrats, your demo was imported successfully. You can now begin editing your site.

2. Manual Import

Please follow the instructions below:

Click switch to manual import from right corner.
Choose contents-demo.xml file for all content import
Choose widget-settings.json file for widget import
Choose customizer-data.dat file for customizer import
and last click Import demo data button

Note: We have added all the above files to the Theme package -> Demo Data folder.

4.1.1 — Click "switch to manual import" link

4.1.1 — Choose all file and click the "import demo data" button
