This documentation consists of several parts and covers the entire process of installing and setting up a WordPress website from scratch. What is WordPress CMS?

WordPress template is a theme for the WordPress CMS platform. You can easily change your website appearance by installing a new WordPress template in a few easy steps. Despite its simplicity, a WordPress template contains all the necessary source files that can be altered the way you need. Template Structure The template package includes several folders. Let's check what's inside: screenshots contains screen-shots of the template. However, they are not required to edit the template. theme contains WordPress theme files. theme-name.zip archive with the theme (child theme). Contains all theme files.

Preparation Before installing a WordPress website, you need to get fully prepared. We recommend you to get the following aspects covered: Software Before you start working with the WordPress template, you should download the required software. You can check the required software on the template preview page. The requirements can alter from template to template, so we will list the most important ones: First of all, you will need the right software to extract files from the password protected sources_#########.zip archive. You can use WinZip 9 or a later version (if you have Windows OS) or Stuffit Expander 10 or a later version (if you have Mac OS). You might also need Adobe Photoshop. It is used to edit the source .PSD files in case you need to change the graphic design and images of the template. To edit the source code of the template, you can use code editors like Adobe Dreamweaver, Notepad++, Sublime Text, etc. To upload the files to a hosting server, you will need an FTP manager like Total Commander, FileZilla, CuteFTP, etc. Hosting Since WordPress CMS is a PHP/MySQL platform, you need to have the hosting server prepared for it. In case you already have a hosting server, you need to check whether it is compatibile with WordPress hosting requirements or not. In other words, whether you can host a WordPress website with it. Our theme itself requires Apache or Nginx hosting servers with the following configuration settings: Recommended Configuration In php.ini define the following: 'max_execution_time' => 60; 'memory_limit' => 128; 'post_max_size' => 8; 'upload_max_filesize' => 8; 'max_input_time' => 45; 'file_uploads' => 'on'; 'safe_mode' => 'off'; in .htaccess file: 'php_value max_execution_time' => 60; in wp-config.php : 'set_time_limit' => 60; 50 MB of disk space; memory limit per process: 64mb (128mb or more recommended). PHP and MySQL Minimal required version of PHP is 5.2.4 and MySQL 5. PHP 5.2 is already not safe as contains critical vulnerabilities that can be used to harm your website. Some Theme extensions will not work with PHP 5.2 and require version 5.4 or later. Recommended settings are: PHP 5.4; MySQL 5.5 or later; mod_rewrite; php fopen; suPHP. You can also install WordPress on your PC or laptop through a local server. You can use the following software to create a local server: WAMP , AppServ , MAMP , etc. All of these support WordPress and can be installed as a regular software.
