Before you start, please make sure that you have WordPress 4.5 or higher installed. Cookiteer will not work on older versions of WordPress. If you have not installed WordPress or not sure how to do so, click here: WordPress Codex – Installing WordPress
A WordPress theme is simply a group of files, called templates, that are bundled together. When they are activated in a Content Management System (CMS) like WordPress, these bundles determine how your website will look and feel. Cookiteer was designed to be used immediately, and we’ve made sure that the installation is simple and clear-cut. To install the theme, you have two choices:
- You can add the theme directly from within the WP Admin, using “Upload Theme” option. From Admin Panel go the following path Appearance -> Themes -> Add New -> Upload Theme and select the zip theme, then click Install Now.
- If your server is not set up properly or you have any problems, you’ll have to extract and then upload the theme by hand. Using your favorite FTP client tool upload theme folder into the folder path /wp-content/themes/ on your server and active it from admin panel.
