3.2. Using FTP Clients

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

2. Navigate to /wp-content/themes/ folder and upload the theme folder ther
3. Log in to your WP Admin Dashboard and open the 'Appearance / Themes' menu
4. You will now see Saja Theme listed among the other themes. Click on activate and you’re done!

4. Importing Demo Contents

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

1. Automatic (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.
2. Alternative: 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).

4.1 | Automatic Import

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

** Note: Before proceeding, please remember that when you are done with the demo import, all existing settings and contents will be removed and replaced by the demo contents. So it is highly recommended that you should only do this in fresh site. **

First please make sure that Saja Parent Theme is activated on your site.

From Admin menu, navigate to Appearance -> Import Demo Data.

In this page, Click on the Install button for installing the demo.

It will take some time for importing the demo contents.

After importing demo data, please update your permalink. To update permalink, navigate to Settings -> Permalink and then click on Save Settings button.

Manual Import

Here's the steps:

We have provided some sample contents inside "sample-data" directory which comes with your theme package. You have to import those contents.

• Importing Contents: From Admin menu, navigate to Tools->Import. From there select the "WordPress" and then run the importer(It will ask you to install the importer before if this is your first time). In the next step when file uploading option appears, select the "contents.xml" file from sample-data and start uploading. In next step select the checkbox saying "Download and import file attachments" and click on "Submit". Then it'll start uploading contents eg. pages, posts etc.

  

  

  

  

• Importing Widgets: You can import widgets using plugin Widget Importer & Exporter. After installing this plugin, navigate to Tools->Widget Importer & Exporter. In the next step when file uploading option appears, select the "widgets.wie" file from sample-data and start importing.
