This article introduces the relevant knowledge of "how to install the theme of WordPress". Many people will encounter such a dilemma in the operation of actual cases, so let the editor lead you to learn how to deal with these situations. I hope you can read it carefully and be able to achieve something!

Install themes through the WordPress background

WordPress is very convenient to use, and it is very important that most of its functions can be completed in the background, and theme installation is one of them.

Open the WordPress background-appearance-theme-add

Then you go to the theme library of WordPress. You can choose the category preview theme, or you can directly search for the topic you want. Most WordPress topics can be found here and can be used for free.

Once you have found the theme you need to install, simply click the install button to install the theme to the WordPress site

Finally, click the enable button to change to the new theme

Installing themes in the WordPress background is our most recommended method, especially for beginners, which is easy to operate and will not cause problems.

Install WordPress theme by uploading

Although most of the themes can be installed directly in the background, sometimes there are some topics that are not on the shelves in the WordPress theme center, such as paid themes, some Github open source themes, and so on. At this time, we need to install them by uploading them.

Upload installation is similar to background installation, which also opens WordPress background-appearance-theme-add

The difference is that this time you need to click the upload theme button.

Then click to select the file, upload the downloaded theme installation package to the site, and click install now

If there is a promotion similar to the one below, it proves that the theme is installed successfully. You can choose to enable it now or later.

Upload theme is also one of our common theme installation methods, but it is important to be careful to make sure that you download the theme installation package from a trusted website, such as from the official theme center of WordPress, the official theme website, etc., and do not download themes from unknown sources

Install the theme through the pagoda panel or FTP

The two methods described above are both installed in the normal state of the WordPress website, and sometimes there are some special cases, such as how to install and change the theme when we cannot log in to the WordPress background. The following method is to install a new theme for WordPress by manipulating files and databases

First of all, upload the theme installation package to the theme file directory of the website, which can be done by using the pagoda panel or FTP software. I will demonstrate it with the pagoda panel below.

Open the pagoda backend, select the file, and enter the theme directory. The path is generally / www/wwwroot/domain.com/wp-content/themes. For example, the WP theme station is / www/wwwroot/themeforwp.net/wp-content/themes.

Then click the upload button to upload the theme installation package to this directory

After uploading, extract the installation package and get the theme folder.

General theme folders have the same name as themes. For example, the twentytwenty theme folder I use is twentytwenty.

In this way, our theme is installed, but it is still not enabled. At this time, there are two options. If you can log in to the background, you can directly enable the theme in the theme management. If you are unable to log in to the WordPress background, you can modify the database to enable the theme.
