The theme needs to be hosted on a server that is running WordPress 4.0 or higher, PHP5 or higher, and MySql 5 or higher. Our WordPress Theme has been successfully tested  with Mac, Windows and Linux. Also, to ensure that your experience is 100% safe, please follow the below checklist:

• Make sure that your server is allowing WordPress to operate normally; some servers restrict WordPress functions, causing potential problems.
• Please be sure to operate the latest version of WordPress available. To download the latest version of WordPress, you need to go to the official WordPress.org website.
• Please make sure that you are using the latest version of the theme. To download the latest version of theme, you need to go to your Theme Forest account, under the Downloads tab.

Step 1 – Login to WordPress Dashboard

Step 2 – Go to Appearance > Themes > Add New

Step 3 – Click Upload and select the file leisure.zip from your computer, after this click the Install Now button.

Step 4 – Wait for the theme to be installed. Once installed, you will be notified.

Warning: Please make sure that you upload the leisure.zip file and NOT the pack.zip file!

Step 1 – The .zip file you downloaded from Theme Forest contains a folder named leisure

Step 2 – Upload this folder on your server in your WordPress directory to /wp-content/themes/

Note: We recommend that you use FileZilla FTP client.

After you have completed the install process, in either of the two ways, you need to activate it.

Step 1 – Log in to the WordPress Dashboard.

Step 2 – Go to Appearance > Themes and select Leisure.

Step 3 – Click the Activate button and you can start using the theme.

Step 4 – It is recommended that you install the theme bundled plugins:

• Visual Composer brings nice features such as shortcodes, widgets and other cool functionality
• Revolution Slider is a premium slider, provided along with the theme, for gorgeous showcasing
• Ninja Forms is one of the top form creation plugins for WordPress
• Simple Weather is a cool, lightweight plugin to display the weather in WordPress
• Xtender is a mandatory plugin for Leisure WP, it brings core functionalities designed for hotel websites

If you want to migrate your website from another WordPress theme to the Leisure theme, you need to resize the thumbnails using the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin. Go to Regenerate Thumbnails Plugin to download the plugin and follow all the required steps. Also, do not forget to adapt the shortcodes.

In the Leisure download package you can find the Demo XML file (located in the demo content folder) that you can use for a quick theme set up. Images, videos and sliders are not included in the XML file.

To import the demo XML file, in the WordPress dashboard go to Tools > Import and select to install from the list WordPress Importer. After the installation is complete, select and upload the XML file. You can find the demo XML file in the demo content folder at root level in the Leisure download package. In the demo content folder you will find three folders: ninja forms, revolution slider and wordpress xml data, each of them with it’s relevant demo content. The process can take up to a few minutes.

Inside the wordpress xml data folder, you will find the demo.xml file, which contains the white demo. Also, you will find the black folder, which contains the demo-black.xml file, with the black hotel demo.

After the import process, go to Appearance > Menus and from the Manage Locations tab, use the Main Menu select box to choose the Main Menu option. Click the Save Changes button to record the changes.

After this go to Settings > Reading and from the A static page radio button, use the Front page select box to choose your home and the Posts page select box to choose the page for your blog.

After successfully importing the demo content, the demo slider and the demo forms, you need to follow a few simple steps and begin replacing  the demo content with your own.

If you can’t see the Description field, click on Screen Options, at the top right corner of the screen, to reveal the top panel and check the Description box to add it in the options. The background image will be displayed only if the Secondary Menu element has sub-elements.

• one-third is a one third width box. Three 1/3 boxes will have room next to each other
• two-thirds is a two thirds width box. One 2/3 box will have room next to a 1/3 box
• one-fourth is a one quarter width box. Four 1/4 boxes will have room next to each other. Two 1/4 boxes will have room next to a 1/2 box
• two-fourths is a two quarters width box. Same size as the 1/2 box
• three-fourths is a three thirds width box. One 3/4 box will have room next to a 1/4 box
• one-sixth is a one sixth width box. One 1/6 box will have room next to a 5/6 box
• two-sixths is a two sixths width box. Same size as 1/3 box
• three-sixths is a three sixths width box. Same size as a 1/2 box
• four-sixths is a four sixths width box. Same size as a 2/3 box
