3. Theme Requirements

Theme Activation

To run WordPress your host just needs a couple of things:

  • PHP version 7.3 or greater

  • MySQL version 5.6 or greater

Recommended PHP Configuration Limits

White screen, demo content fails when importing, empty page content and other similar issues are all related to low PHP configuration limits. The solution is to increase the PHP limits. You can do this on your own, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

Please note that:

- Before importing, you should check and change your PHP settings:

Settings
Value

max_input_time

300

max_execution_time

300

memory_limit

128M or bigger

upload_max_filesize

8M or bigger

post_max_size

8M or bigger

5. Update Theme

There are 3 ways to Update the theme:

First of all, do a backup on your local computer. There is a lot of tool and plugins available to help you to do this. Just find one with a good rating and get it set up now, not later: https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=backup+wparrow-up-right

ALWAYS make a backup of your entire site before you update. Usually. the update installs within seconds and cause zero problems, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

How to upgrade?

The first thing to know is that if you have modified PHP, CSS, JS files into the core theme, the update will overwrite what you did (that's the reason we suggest doing your modifications in the child theme).

The update will NOT affect your content such as your blog post, photos, videos, option theme settings, WordPress settings. Basically, the update replaces the PHP, JavaScript and CSS files of the theme, not your database, and not the WordPress core files.
