Introduction

Thank you for choosing our theme! We’re glad to have you as a valued customer and are dedicated to making sure you’re happy with our product.

License

When you buy a theme from ThemeForest, you can choose between a Regular License or an Extended License. Use the Regular License if the end product is free for users. If users need to pay to access it, you’ll need the Extended License.

Envato manages billing, licensing, and related terms, so we don’t have control over these. Click here to learn more about each license and decide which one is right for you.

Note

One license is valid for one domain only. If you want to use the theme on another domain, then you have to purchase another license.

License FAQ

If I need to use the theme on a second site, do I need a second license?

Yes. One theme purchase allows you to use it on one finished site. If you need to use it on a second site, you must purchase a second license.

Can I use the theme on a test site and then move it to a live site when finished?

Yes, you can. You can keep the theme on a test site to build it, then move it to the live site once you’re finished.

Can I keep a test and live sites with one Regular License purchase?

You can keep one test/staging website and one live website with one Regular License. Keep in mind that you must use the same domain.

Do I need a new license to use the theme on a WordPress multisite?

Since the multisite websites are located under one domain, it is allowed to use WordPress Multisite under a Regular License.

Installation

WordPress information

To install this WordPress theme, make sure you have WordPress already set up. If you need help, refer to the WordPress Codex. Below are some helpful links for WordPress information:

Server requirements

To use our WordPress themes, ensure your host supports WordPress 6 or greater, PHP 7.4 or greater version (recommended by WordPress, read more), and MySQL 5.7 or greater version. For detailed PHP extension recommendations, see the Hosting Handbook.

We suggest confirming these PHP configuration limits with your hosting provider:

  • max_execution_time 300
  • memory_limit 256M
  • post_max_size 32M
  • upload_max_filesize 32M

If you use an unmanaged dedicated server or VPS, update your php.ini file. Or, add these values to your .htaccess file:

  • php_value max_execution_time 300
  • php_value memory_limit 256M
  • php_value post_max_size 32M
  • php_value upload_max_filesize 32M

Setting these values will ensure you will not get error messages during the installation.

A child theme is installed the same way you install a parent theme. Locate the dentan-child.zip file in the theme package and upload it via the WordPress admin panel. Alternatively, you can unzip it and upload it via FTP (see main theme installation chapter).

Clearing the Cache

After importing the demo and completing all the settings, if everything doesn't appear as expected, it may be due to a server cache or browser cache issue. In such cases, clear both the browser cache and the server cache. Additionally, if a caching plugin was previously installed in your WordPress setup, make sure to clear its cache as well.

After activating the theme, a new submenu appears under Appearance > Customize.
