Uploading Plumberx Theme
Before moving to installation, we first need to upload theme to WordPress. (Assuming you are logged into wp-admin already at this point). Here is what to do next...
- Download theme from Themeforest. Please download All Files and Documentation and Not Installable WordPress files only.
- Unzip that folder on your local PC/Mac
- Inside that folder, you will find a zip plumberx.zip around 2MB of size. (this is the WordPress theme)
- Go to your wp-admin dashboard, then go to Appearance -> Themes -> Add new, and upload plumberx.zip, and then activate the theme.
- Immediately skip to below section please.
