Stylemix Hostingarrow-up-right offers automatic WordPress installation for you. However, if you wish to install WordPress yourself, follow the instructions in WordPress Codexarrow-up-right.

There are 2 ways of theme installation. Let's take a look at both of them, so you can choose the most convenient one for you.

WordPress upload

  • Navigate to Appearance > Themes

  • Click Add New and click the Upload Theme button

  • Browse to find the sequoia.zip file on your computer that you got from your Envato profile and click Install Now

  • Navigate to Appearance > Themes and click the Activate button to activate the newly installed theme

FTP upload

Before you begin the installation, there are a few things you need to have and do.

These are:

  1. Access to your web server (via FTP or shell)

  2. An FTP Client

  3. Your web browser of choice

  • Log into your FTP client to access your host web server

  • Browse to find the sequoia.zip file on your computer (located in the downloader folder from ThemeForest) and unzip it.

  • Upload the folder you extracted from the zip file to yourdomain/wp-content/themes/ folder

  • Activate the newly installed theme by going to WordPress > Appearance > Themes and clicking the Activate button.
