Magento theme installation

This theme is not compatible with Magento 1.9 engine. It will work with the Magento 2.1.7 engine only.

Install theme on live store

If you already have a Magento store and want to apply the theme, follow the instruction below. To install the theme you only need to upload all the theme files to your server and then enable the theme in the admin panel. But to avoid unexpected problems after installation, you should first prepare your Magento. Please strictly follow the steps described in this guide:

  1. First of all, please make sure your Magento installation version meets the template requirements. The detailed Magento update guide you will find on the site Magento Wiki.
  2. It is recommended to install the theme on a test server before you install it on a live store.
  3. Backup Magento files and the store database.

    4. Important: creating backup before installation of any themes or extensions in Magento is extremely important, especially if you are working on a live store.

  4. Disable all cache systems which you have in your Magento

    5. 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.

  5. Disable Merge & Minify JavaScript Files in Stores > Configuration > Advanced > Developer > JavaScript Settings and Merge & Minify CSS Files in Stores > Configuration > Advanced > Developer > CSS Settings. You can enable this feature after installation..
  6. Copy the content of the archive [app folder] to the root folder of your online shop. After copying run the console and navigate to the root shop folder.

    7. Attention!!!

    Due to the peculiarities of the engine you will have to use any console environment with the command line. Module configuration will be mainly performed via the command line. If you perform changes on the hosting server, you can contact your hosting provider for help and use the hosting command line.
  7. Run the following commands in the command line, one by one:
    1. bin/magento setup:upgrade
    2. bin/magento index:reindex
    3. bin/magento cache:clean
  8. Then follow the instructions for setting up the theme.

Template configuration

We will configure it the same way as in our Live Demo template, without affecting your products data. The theme configuration process will be shown based on the default Magento store with the sample data.

After the theme installation, no difference will appear on your site frontend.
