WordPress is well-known for its ease of installation. Under most circumstances, installing WordPress is a very simple process and takes less that five minutes to complete.

Before beginning the installation and configuring of your new theme, you must first have WordPress already installed on a server.

If you are struggling, here is a very detailed guide at Wordpress Codex that will walk you through every step.

If you prefer something more visual, you can watch this video tutorial on how to install Wordpress by us

(Please note the video shown is from our NUVO Restaurant theme, but the same process applies)

In order to install Cleaning, once you download the theme, unzip the main archive. You will see the wp-Cleaning.zip file

Candiate Can Be Installed in 2 Different Ways:

1. 1 Installing through WordPress
2. 2 Uploading through FTP (File transfer protocol)

1. Install Cleaning – Installation through WordPress:

Installing a theme through WordPress is quite a simple process. After you have logged into your WordPress Simply navigate to Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme . Click the button “choose file” and locate your Theme zip file (wp-Cleaning.zip), then click the “install now” button. After Cleaning is installed, find the Theme in Appearance > Themes and click Activate.

Please be informed that you should not upload the whole archive you downloaded from Themeforest, as you will get an error reporting “broken stylesheet file”. Instead locate the wp-Cleaning.zip file inside the main archive you downloaded.

2. Installation Through FTP:

Please be informed that you should not upload the whole item you have downloaded from Themeforest as you will get an error message. Instead:

1. Download the Theme archive and extract the main theme zip file with the title (wp-Cleaning.zip)
2. You may need to preserve the folder structure in the archive when extracting these files. Some softwares such as Winrar create a subdirectory within the same directory name they have unzipped. Uploading a theme to your server via FTP with this structure will lead to error messages.
3. Use an FTP client (for example Filezilla) to access your host web server
4. Transfer your unzipped theme to your server in the wp-content/themes
