Importing Demo Data

Importing demo data (post, pages, images, theme settings, widget data, contact form and newsletter) is the easiest way to setup your theme. It will allow you to quickly edit everything instead of creating content from scratch.

Before you begin, make sure all the required plugins are activated and php configuration limits to a minimum as follows:

max_execution_time=300, max_input_time=600, max_input_vars=5000, memory_limit=256M, post_max_size=48M, upload_max_filesize=48M.

When you import the data, the following things might happen:

  • No existing posts, pages, categories, images, custom post types or any other data will be deleted or modified.
  • Posts, pages, images, widgets, menus and other theme settings will get imported.
  • Setup up front page and Navigation will be selected automatically
