1. Basic Installation top

If you are facing issue regrading failure of theme installation or demo content installation make sure you followed first thing that you are uploading only theme files as full package contains documentation etc. For failure issues increase limit for following variables of your web server or localhost if you are installing it on local machine as:

  • max_execution_time
  • max_input_time
  • memory_limit
  • upload_max_filesize

You can directly paste theme files under wp-content/themes directory via FTP account of your WebServer.

Theme is missing the style.css stylesheet error

Here is the fix for it: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821510

All above steps are required in case of failure else enjoy installation.
