Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our theme. We are delighted to have you as one of our valued customers, and we are committed to ensuring your satisfaction with our products.

License

When purchasing a theme from ThemeForest, you have two licensing options: Regular License and Extended License. If your end product, including the item, will be free to the end user, then a Regular License is what you need. An Extended License is required if the end user must pay to use the end product.

The billing, licensing terms, and process are handled by Envato, and we have no control over these aspects. Click here to learn more about what each license is for and which one to purchase.

Note

One license is valid for one domain only. If you want to use the theme on another domain, then you have to purchase another license.

License FAQ

If I need to use the theme on a second site, do I need a second license?

Yes. One theme purchase allows you to use it on one finished site. If you need to use it on a second site, you must purchase a second license.

Can I use the theme on a test site and then move it to a live site when finished?

Yes, you can. You can keep the theme on a test site to build it, then move it to the live site once you’re finished.

Can I keep a test and live sites with one Regular License purchase?

You can keep one test/staging website and one live website with one Regular License. Keep in mind that you must use the same domain.

Do I need a new license to use the theme on a WordPress multisite?

Since the multisite websites are located under one domain, it is allowed to use WordPress Multisite under a Regular License.

Installation

WordPress information

To install this WordPress Theme, you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. If you need help installing WordPress, follow the instructions in WordPress Codex. Below are all the useful links for WordPress information:

Server requirements

To use any of our WordPress themes, we recommend your host supports WordPress 6 or greater, PHP 7.4 or greater version (WordPress is now recommending PHP 7.4, read more), and MySQL 5.7 or greater version. For detailed PHP extension recommendations, see the Hosting Handbook.

We recommend that you contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your server PHP configuration limits are as follows:

  • max_execution_time 240
  • memory_limit 256M
  • post_max_size 32M
  • upload_max_filesize 32M

If you are running an unmanaged dedicated server or VPS, you should check your php.ini file. Alternatively, you can edit .htaccess file at the root of your website and add the following values:

  • php_value max_execution_time 240
  • php_value memory_limit 256M
  • php_value post_max_size 32M
  • php_value upload_max_filesize 32M

Setting these values will ensure you will not get error messages during the installation.

Theme Update

This section is useful if you received the notification that a new version of the theme is available.

Note: Backup the current version of the theme before you go ahead with the update.

There are a couple of different ways to update our WordPress theme to the latest version:

1) Install the WordPress Envato Market plugin

Once installed, activated, and setup, the Envato Market plugin will display a notice in your WordPress dashboard when an update is available. To set up:

  1. Download the ZIP file from here.
  2. Login to your WordPress Dashboard
  3. Go to Plugins > Add New
  4. Click Upload Plugin at the top
  5. Upload the envato-market.zip file
  6. Once installed, click Activate Plugin
  7. Visit the new Envato Market menu item
  8. You should see a screen similar to the bellow. The very first step is to create an Envato API token. To do this, click on the generate a personal token link (highlighted in red bellow).

  9. If you’re already logged into your Envato account you’ll be taken to the screen bellow (otherwise you will be prompted to login first before being redirected to this page). On this screen you can see what the Envato Market plugin is requesting permission to access via your Envato account (Envato sites, the ability to download your items, a list of your purchases and verification of your purchases).

  10. To proceed give your token a name, check the box that you have read and agree to the terms and then click the green button to create your token.
  11. Once your token is created you will see a green success screen. Copy your token code (this is very important since Envato doesn’t store a copy of the token for you), check to confirm that you’ve copied it and click the white button that you got it.
  12. Now go back to your WordPress installation and paste in your Envato API token then click save.

  13. Once your token is saved and validated your page will refresh to show your Envato Market landing page with added tabs for your items. The added tab(s) display all of your theme and plugin purchases as well as their version numbers and quick links to the theme and author pages.

2) Update using WordPress uploader:

  1. Log into your ThemeForest account and navigate to Downloads tab. Find the theme and download Installable WordPress file only.

  2. Log into your WordPress website and go to Appearance > Themes.
  3. Activate a default WordPress theme. Delete the older version of your theme and re-upload the new WordPress Installable files that you have downloaded from ThemeForest during the 1st step.
  4. Once it is uploaded, activate the theme.

    IMPORTANT!

    If you're using a child theme, do not activate the newly uploaded parent theme.

2) Update via FTP:

  1. Log into your ThemeForest account and get the last version of the theme as described above.
  2. Connect to your server using desktop client software (we recommend Filezilla and CyberDuck).
  3. Go to /wp-content/themes directory
  4. Remove/rename existing folder with old theme files.
  5. Unpack theme installable files downloaded from ThemeForest and upload them to the themes folder.
