Installing The Ministry Theme

Posted by Bryan on October 6, 2008 under Installation and Setup | 2 Comments to Read

Assuming you have hosting set up, and WordPress is installed, the next step is to install the theme…

1. Unzip/unpack your theme files.

2. Access your site with an FTP client.

3. Upload all theme files into the theme directory of your site, usually… www/wp-content/themes.

4. On your server, open the directory in the theme titled /plugins.

5. Move these files (1 folder and 1 file) into the plugins directory of your site, usually www/wp-content/plugins.

6. In your administration panel, go to Design and choose The Ministry Theme as your theme.

7. In your administration panel, go to Plugins and enable the 2 plugins called WPListCal (optional, but it offers a nice and easy event management tool) and Limit Posts.

That’s it. Just make sure to replace the logo – you can use our cross emblem but you’ll need some kind of graphics program to overwrite the name.

    Re: step 4 (Installing the Ministry Theme)
    I do not see a /plugins amoung the theme folders. I do see images, javascript, slideshow and thumbnails. Please help.

    Also, when I unzipped the theme, there was a zipped file inside “wplistcal.1.2.2″ I unzipped it before uploading to the site. Was this correct?

    @glen j – Included in your download were the up-to-date instructions for installing this theme. “wplistcall.1.2.2″ is the plugin. If you need further assistance please ask in the support area.

Please direct support questions to the support forum.
