How To Use My Theme

    I got my new theme (minimalix) the other day and have been trying to make my website look something like the demos but I am at a complete lose. I’ve searched the internet for answers but I’m getting the feeling I’m going to have to learn html and css. Is this true? I thought creating a wordpress site was supposed to be easy like click, drag, and fill in the blanks. I guess the joke is on me.

    Am I missing something? Did my purchased theme come with an instruction manual I’m not seeing or am I going to have to learn html, css, ftp, etc.?

    If so, what is the best way to go about it?

    A well-written theme, once installed into the themes directory of your WP installation, should show up in Appearance > Themes – ready to be activated. Once activated, there are usually ways to configure it to your liking through a customization panel. HTML and CSS should not be necessary to tinker with for a functional site using the theme.

    If you’re having trouble with a commercial theme, it’s best to contact the theme’s support channel to figure out what’s missing. Some themes may have a registration requirement or such as an extra step.
