Magento theme installation
If you already have a Magento store and want to apply the theme, follow the instruction below.
Install Theme on Live Store
To install the theme you only need to upload all the theme files (the app folder) to your server and then enable the theme in the admin panel.
If you don't want to spend your time installing the theme, don't hesitate to order installation service using our live-chat.
But to avoid unexpected problems after installation, you should first prepare your Magento. Please strictly follow the steps described in this guide:
Attention!
Please DO NOT import sample data if you have a live website as it will completely replace your database contents, and all your website data will be LOST.
First of all, please make sure your Magento installation version meets the template requirements. The detailed Magento update guide you will find on the Magento User Guide.
*It is recommended to install the theme on a test server before you install it on a live store.
Step 1. Backup Magento files
Backup Magento files and the store database.Important: creating backup before installation of any themes or extensions in Magento is extremely important, especially if you are working on a live store.
On the Admin sidebar, tap System. Then under Tools, choose Backups.
In the upper-right corner, tap the button for the type of backup you want to create:
System Backup | - | creates a complete backup of the database and the file system. During the process, you can choose to include the media folder in the backup. |
Database and Media Backup | - | creates a backup of the database and the media folder. |
Database Backup | - | creates a backup of the database. |
To put the store into maintenance mode during the backup, mark the checkbox. When the backup is complete, maintenance mode is turned off automatically.
For a system backup, mark the Exclude checkbox if you do NOT want to include the media folder. Then when prompted, confirm the action.(press OK)
The backaps files stored under the var > backups folder.
In case of Error 503 DELETE the maintenance.flag file from var folder.
Step 2. Disable the cache
Disable all cache systems which you have in your Magento.Important: when developing your Magento store, in order to be able to see changes immediately, you should completely disable the cache. You can enable it after you finish configuring your store.

Then you need to select Disable from the Action dropdown and press the Submit button.
Do not forget to enable the cache after the theme installation and configuration.
Step 3. Upload the app folder
Now you need to copy the zipped content of the theme folder (the app folder) to the root folder of your online shop.
Find the theme > app folder. You need to archive (.zip) the app folder to upload it to the server. Use the WinZip 9+ (for Windows) or Stuffit Expander 10+ (for Mac) to compress the app folder.
Log into cPanel > navigate to the Files section and click on the File Manager icon.
Once you select your directory, click on the Go button.
Open the root folder of your online store.
Click on the Upload icon.
Click on the Browse button.

Step 4. Unzip the app folder
Select the uploaded zip file and click the Extract icon
Make sure the right folder is indicated. Press the Extract File(s) button.
Then press the Close button and Reload the File Manager page.
You can delete the .zip folder after unzipping.
Step 5. Run the console
After unzipping run the console and navigate to the root directory of your store.
