Installation Information
Theme Requirements
To use this theme you must be running WordPress 6.0 or higher, PHP 7.4 or higher. External plug-ins may require additional limitations (for WooCommerce plug-in WordPress 6.3+). If you use hosting with limited resources (for example GoDaddy and other lowcost shared hosting providers), you may experience issues with one-click demo data installation feature.
We recommend you to contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your server PHP configuration limits are as follows:
- max_execution_time 600
- memory_limit (up to) 256M or 512M for creating custom color schemes with LESS CSS compiler.
- post_max_size 32M
- upload_max_filesize 32M
If you are running unmanaged dedicated server or VPS, you should check your php.ini file. Alternatively, you can edit .htaccess file in the root of your website and add the following values:
php_value max_execution_time 600 php_value memory_limit 256M php_value post_max_size 32M php_value upload_max_filesize 32M
Setting these values will ensure you will not get error messages during the installation. To safeguard your website, please use secure passwords and the latest version of WordPress and plugins.
IMPORTANT! To avoid any errors that might come up during the installation we recommend to have memory limit set up to 512M.

Installation
Installation video
We recommend to watch our video tutorial 1st
If you have questions regarding theme installation we recommend to read detailed instruction below
Unpacking the theme
Before installing the theme please make sure you unpacked the archive and extracted theme files. After unzipping the archive you will see the following files:
If you try to install the wrong files you will get missing style.css file error. This is the most common error meaning you are trying to install incorrect package.
To install "Education" theme you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. For information in regard to installing the WordPress platform, please see the WordPress Codex or check this video tutorial.
Update WordPress: To ensure a positive user experience, we highly recommend you to update your WordPress to the latest stable version. This will help to ensure that you are able to utilize all of the latest features of WordPress.
You can install the theme in two ways:
-
via FTP:
- Log into your web server with FTP client software
- Unzip the education.zip file and ONLY use the extracted /education theme folder
- Upload the extracted /education theme folder into /wp-content/themes folder
- Activate the newly installed theme. Go to Appearance > Themes and activate it.
- via WordPress:
- Login to admin panel.
- Go to Appearance - Themes and click on the Add New button.
- Choose Upload theme option. Click on Browse...(Choose file in Safari/Chrome), select the "education.zip" and click Install Now button.
- After successful installation click on Activate or go to Appearance - Themes and click on Activate to activate the newly installed theme.
- After the theme's activation you will be prompted to install recommended
plugins: Contact Form 7, Revolution Slider, Smash Balloon Instagram Feed, ThemeREX Updater, Timetable and Event Schedule, Tribe Events Calendar, WPBakery PageBuilder, WooCommerce and elegro Crypto Payment.
All these plugins are included into the theme's archive or optionally can be installed from the WordPress.org repository.
The theme can function without any of these plugins. But if you want your website look precisely as at demo page you have to install all recommended plugins and import demo content. This is a good idea if you are building your website from the scratch.
However, if you have existing website you should be very careful with plugin installation and importing demo data, this may affect your site content and structure. Please read the Demo Content article for details. - A new menu item Appearance -> Theme Options will appear.
- Attention! If you want to make changes in theme’s templates or functions, we recommend activating a child theme before demo data installation, otherwise the Theme Options will be lost. Please see the Child Theme section for more information.
Plugins Installation
In order to make the theme looks exactly as at demo page you need to install recommended plugins. Click on Begin installing plugins link.
You will be redirected to plugins installation page. Check all listed plugins, select Install option and click on Apply button. Installation may take few minutes, please be patient and do not refresh the page.
After installation you will see this notification informing that plugins were installed successfully.
Attention! This theme is compatible with The GDPR Framework plugin, though it is not provided with the theme.
Gutenberg Compatibility
Our theme is compatible with Gutenberg page builder. You can create new pages using this editor.
All existing demo pages are built using WPBakery Page Builder and should be customized using WPBakery Page Builder ONLY.
PLEASE NOTE! It is possible to switch between the page builders. Please use One page builder for creating/customizing One particular page/post.
Learndash LMS Compatibility
Learndash LMS plugin is fully compatible with the theme but is not included in the theme package. It should be purchased separately at https://www.learndash.com/pricing-and-purchase/.
Child Theme
Child theme is for developers willing to make changes to core functions and code. If you are not planning to dig that deep, you can easily skip this chapter.
IMPORTANT: If you want to make changes in theme’s templates or functions, we recommend you to install child theme and make changes there. To learn more about the purpose and basis of creation of child theme, visit WordPress Codex.
Attention! When activating a child theme or switching back to the parent theme, the theme options will be lost (That was the requirement of the ThemeForest team). We recommend activating a child theme before demo data installation.
In the theme pack you will see materials for child theme. It’s located in the "education-child.zip" archive. You can install child theme the same way as you install main theme (see above, in the section "Installation")
A few recommendations on how to use Child Theme from ThemeREX:
- Almost all files from the main theme can be replaced in child theme. It doesn’t concern only .php-files with templates and basic logics, but also both .js, .css files from respective folders and files with images, icons etc.
- If you want to change some of the theme-related functions or to add new ones, copy/add all the required functions into 'functions.php' in the "education-child" folder. If our theme contains functions with such names, they will be replaced with yours, if not – your functions will
complete our theme’s logics.
IMPORTANT: If you want to replace some functions from other files (except functions.php), e.g. from _wp_utils.php or _utils.php, we strongly do not recommend you to copy respective files into the child theme, but you should create the respective functions in functions.php in the child theme. This should be done, so that when updating the them, new functions from these files are available for use.
As for other files - putout templates from the folder 'templates', images from the folder 'images' etc. - to make changes, copy theme into the folder 'child theme' and make changes there.
Demo Content
Our themes have simple One click demo data import tool. It's very easy to use, and you can get precise copy of our demo website in just 1 click, really.
Before installing demo data make sure you have installed all required plugins, please refer to Plugins installation section of this document for details.
To import demo content into a WordPress site follow these steps:
- Log in to your site as an administrator.
- If you see a message prompting to install Additional Tags plugin - click on "Begin installing plugins" and install it on the corresponding page.
IMPORTANT: The rest of recommended plugins (Revolution Slider, WPBakery Page Builder) are not mandatory for installation of demo content.
- Go to Appearance -> Install Demo Data:
- On the page that showed up please set the required parameters.
- Only pages, forms and sliders - Allows you to select the content you need to be imported for a definite page, slider, etc. It is recommended when the site is already built.
- Whole demo-site content - Allows you to import whole demo content. It is recommended for new installations of WordPress.
IMPORTANT: When installing whole demo-data ALL EXISTING CONTENTS of your website will be deleted and replaced with the new data! We highly recommend that you install demo data only on blank WordPress install.
- Click on "Start Import" button.
IMPORTANT: Please wait while demo data is being copied from our server to your site. It may take a while and depends significantly upon Internet connection speed between your website and our server. Please wait patiently and do not refresh/leave the page.
- After the data is successfully imported you will see the "Congratulations" message:
In 99.9% it works fine, but if something went wrong and data was not imported, please repeat the procedure described above. The system will find the last item imported successfully and you will be able to continue the import.
In case "Demo Data" installation stuck and you see "Error load data from the file ... " error message, you can manually install it by downloading the demo.zip archive from our server and extract it in your Theme's folder root directory.
Treat the screenshot below as an example only. The list of folders inside a theme package may vary.
If the issue persists, please contact your hosting provider to make sure that your server configuration meets the Theme Requirements. Otherwise, please contact our support team at https://themerex.net/support/. Our tech support operators will assist you.
Theme Update
IMPORTANT: Before you go ahead with the update please check theme changelog and make sure you backup your old theme folder. Download it to your computer locally.
It is the best practice to backup both your files and database regularly and especially before making some serious updates.
Update Option 1. Update using the ThemeREX Updater plugin
(for theme version 3.6.1 and above only!)
- Please make sure the ThemeREX Updater plugin is installed and activated. This plugin is provided with the theme.
-
Navigate to Appearance > ThemeREX Updater and enter your purchase code to get the latest versions of bundled plug-ins and theme updates through the WordPress admin panel. To get the code, please navigate to your ThemeForest "Downloads" page and click on the theme download link. Check this guide for more details.
- We recommend you to check the "Create backups" option to allow the system create backups for plugins versions and the theme automatically.
-
Proceed to WP Dashboard > Updates and check if any updates are available.
- Choose the options for an update (plugin, theme, etc.) and click on Update button.
-
You can restore the backups created by the system in WP Dashboard > Updates or in Appearance > ThemeREX Updater (if the "Create backups" option was checked before the update).
Update Option 2. Update using FTP client
- Log into your ThemeForest account and navigate to your downloads tab. Find the theme and download “Installable WordPress file”.
- Connect to your server using desktop client software (we recommend CyberDuck and Filezilla)
- Change directory to /wp-content/themes
- Remove existing folder with old theme files
- Unpack theme installable files downloaded from ThemeForest and upload to themes folder
- Update the included plugins if you see a notification message letting you know the plugins have a new version.
- Navigate to WP Dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins.
- Update the Additional Tags plugin. You can click on "Update" button (if available in a particular theme) or deactivate and delete this plugin. Then follow the prompt to install it again. This will load a new plugin version on the site.
- Deactivate and delete the rest plugin(s) of old version.
- Go to Appearance > Install Plugins and install the plugin(s) like it was described in the Plugins Installation section of this documentation.
Save Theme Options
In case color styles/schemes, for some reason (for example after the theme update) fall back to their default settings/values, then you need to regenerate the styles and colors again. All you need to do is just navigate to Appearance -> Theme Options -> Customization -> General tab and click on "Save" button.
Quick Start
After theme activation and demo content import we are ready to get started with basic theme settings like site title, tagline, logo, favicon etc.
To change your site title and tagline, go to Settings -> General. Please notice, these parameters are important for search engines.
Another great idea may be setting custom permalinks structure to make them more SEO friendly and human readable. Go to Settings -> Permalinks and make changes according to example below.
Now let's navigate to Appearance -> Theme Options. It gives you control over most of theme settings from one place. There are quite a lot of parameters here, but luckily the majority of them have default values that suit most of the users. We will take a really closer look at them a bit later. Now just a few words about how it all works to give you an idea of our Settings Inheritance System.
IMPORTANT: One of the most important theme features is Settings Inheritance System. You can flexibly control the appearance and behaviour of the whole website and individual pages, posts and categories. You can set individual display styles, sliders, output settings of page components (posts), and many more for the required category or for each post separately. In a couple of words you can set global styles and then change them for each page/post/category individually. These changes will override global styles affecting selected elements and their descendant elements.
How is works
First, you should navigate to Appearance - Theme Options and set global options that will work throughout the whole site. These
settings will be default for all categories, pages, and posts of the theme:
As we mentioned above most of global theme settings can be overridden in the categories, pages, and posts. For example, you
need to change style of blog stream page for category that contains Portfolio type posts. Navigate to that category, click on edit button and at the bottom of the page change appearance settings according to your needs:
From now on, all the posts in this category and its subcategories will be displayed in the style of "Classic (3 columns)". However hover-effect "Dir" will be preserved for them. Posts of the rest of categories (unless individual settings were applied) will be displayed as defined in Theme Options. By the way, the remaining settings of the category that were not changed (overridden) will also be inherited from the parent ones. If the settings were not changed here too - from Theme Options.
If you want to change the appearance of individual post in the category you should find that post, click on "edit" button and set custom parameters. You can find "Post options" at the bottom of the post edit page. These parameters will override both category settings and global settings defined in Theme Options panel.
Homepage
We recommend you to watch our video tutorials demonstrating how to create demo page using WPBakery Page Builder in backend and frontend mode.
-
Create a page using backend editor
- Create a page using frontend editor
Usually, the page consists of Sections, Rows, Layouts, Block containers, Content Blocks, Columns and some other elements that can be edited via WPBakery Page Builder. Before you start, please check the following tutorials:
- Official WPBakery Page Builder FAQ page.
- Getting Started With WPBakery Page Builder Guide.
- WPBakery Page Builder: A Guide To Drag & Drop Page Building.
- How to Add Row and Column with WPBakery Page Builder.
- How to Add Row or Column Background with WPBakery Page Builder.
- How to Create Empty Space Between Elements with Custom Height.
Once you finished with building your page you would need to assign it as Homepage. To do this:
- Select the menu item Settings > Readings
- In the Homepage displays section select "A static page (select below)" option, in the "Homepage:" dropdown list choose the page you have already created.
Main Slider
Now, let's set up the main theme's slider.
Built-in Theme Slider (Swiper)
Built-in theme slider allows you to display Featured images from the posts of this category. You can select a category and specify the number of the posts displayed. This is a rather simple solution that can be optionally used, though we prefer using revolution slider.
Revolution Slider
The theme is fully compatible with an extremely powerful and beautiful plugin - Revolution Slider.
After installation, in the admin panel's menu an item Revolution Slider will show up, using which you can create an unlimited number of sliders, and then set any of them as the main slider in the menu Appearance - Theme Options - Customization - Slider. To do this, set Revolution slider in the field Slider Engine, and specify the name of the slider in the Revolution Slider alias field.
Please check the following links for more information regarding the Revolution Slider functionality:
Find screenshot of the slider's backend settings below:
Home 1:
Blog
Now, you have finished up the appearance of the homepage of your website. It is time to start a blog.
Please notice that blog is a very handy tool for company news and events page, so it's not just for bloggers. Besides that we use blog functionality to create awesome galleries for your portfolio. To use the blog's functionality in our theme, you need to create the blog stream page. To do this, you need to:
- Go to Pages under the WordPress menu and then click on Add New.
- Put your Title as usual ("Blog streampage" for example)
-
Choose "Blog streampage" as the page's template
- Publish this page.
IMPORTANT: It was an optional step. Even if you do not create a separate page for your blog stream page - you will still use the correct template to display a list of posts. However, creating a separate page will give you an extra advantage - you can set up individual features for blog stream page (position and type of sidebars, color scheme for each element on the page, etc.)
Now, assign the newly created page as "Posts page" (blog streampage). To do this:
- Select the menu item Settings - Readings
- In the field Homepage displays select "A static page (select below)" , and in the list "Posts page:"choose the page you have created.
Blog Items
Now you can create blog posts.
- Go to Posts under the WordPress menu and then click on Add New.
- Put your Title as usual.
- Put Content if needed.
Select one or more categories to the Categories.
Select desired Post Format.
- Standart - just set the featured image or without featured image.
- Gallery - add a gallery in the post with standard means of WordPress (with Add Media button located above the editor). In the theme settings, you can specify whether you want to replace the original gallery with the built-in theme slider.
- Video - Add the YouTube or Vimeo video in the post with the shortcode [video]
- Audio - Add the Audio in the post with the shortcode [audio]
- Link - Add a link to the body of the post.
- Quote - Add text of the quotes (IMPORTANT: select it and mark as "Blockquote"), and after it - a link to the original source.
- Image - Add an image to the body of the post.
- Status - Add a one-row message to the body of the post.
- Aside - Add a short message to the body of the post.
- Chat - Normally, it contains a block of messages - correspondence of two or more people. For pretty formatting, you can use the shortcode [trx_chat].
- For every post item it is needed to upload an image and to set it as a featured image. Click Set featured image on the right in the Featured Image section:
- Click Select Files button and select image to upload (the full size image). WordPress will crop the image, depending on which portfolio template you will use.
- After image was uploaded you need to set this image as featured. Click Set featured image.
- IMPORTANT: In the Post Options section, you can flexibly customize the appearance and behavior of each of the post: select or hide the slider above the post, select and set sidebars and their position (or hide the unnecessary ones), set up the display of different parts of the page and the post (information about the author, related posts, a comment block and many more). There are default settings for each post that are specified in the category to which the post belongs. If the settings are not specified in the category, then they are inherited from the overlying category. If there is no settings specified in any of the parental categories, the settings indicated in Appearance - Theme Options - Blog will be used.
- Publish this post.
Portfolio
This section describes how to create portfolio page and add new items.
Our theme provides easy and powerful tools helping to create eye catching galleries. Portfolio items are just usual posts with improved look and feel features and work exactly as blog posts.
To get started you should create posts category that will contain your portfolio entries and subcategories.
- Navigate to Posts -> Categories -> Add New, name the category and add some description.
- Go to the bottom of the page and in the section "Custom settings for this taxonomy (and nested)" click on Blog and Single tab.
- Unlock Blog style options.
- Select one of the layouts that suits your needs. Later you can play around with the layouts and hover effects to achieve desired look and feel.
Now we have just created a category that will contain our portfolio items and display them proper way. If you add some subcategories to this main category they will inherit parent style unles you choose to override them at category options page. Lets add some portfolio items!
- Go to Posts -> Add New, name the post accordingly
- In the right column find Categories widget and select "Portfolio" category - thus we move usual post entry into portfolio section.
- Set featured image and save the post. Please notice - this featured image will be used as a primary portfolio image so make sure it has good quality.
To add portfolio page to main menu navigate to Appearance -> Menus, select newly created category and add it to main (or any other) menu, save the menu and you are done!
Team
Team is a custom post type used to create team member elements and used for courses. Every educational course has a teacher. The list of teachers is available in Team section.
So before adding new course you should add teachers 1st in team section.
When creating a course you will have a list of available staff members to assign with the course.
Additionally you can use team members and teams in trx_team shortcode or add new members manually. To read more about trx_team shortcode please follow this link.
As you can see above each new team member has extra parameters which are custom link to member profile (can be external URL), social profiles, position etc.
Courses
Please check this video demonstrating how to create a new course
This section describes how to create online cources. Our theme has special post type for courses. Before creating some course you should create a staff member responsible for this course (see section above). After that you can get started with a course.
To create new course go to WP Admin panel -> Courses -> Add New. Each course has Courses Options settings regulating specific course information like schedule, teacher and so on.
Landing Pages
Landing pages are extremely popular now since they are extremely powerful marketing solutions with high conversion rate. Our themes provide powerful tools helping to create awesome one-page navigation in a blink of an eye.
To create a landing page follow these simple steps:
- Go to Pages -> Add New, give this page a name like "My Landing"
- Enable side "Table of content" menu: Post Options > Customization > Menus > TOC Position > Fixed
Now we are ready to add menu items. - Lets add some content to the page. In order to obtain a menu item in page navigation menu each content block must be separated with anchor shortcode. Each anchor shortcodes adds new navigation item to Table of Content Menu (see below) and this way organizes page navigation. See example below:
[trx_anchor id="toc_projects" title="Our projects" description="Our projects - |show your works with amazing hovers" icon="icon-briefcase"]
This shortcode creates a menu item named "Our projects", adds a description (displayed when mouse is over) and adds menu item icon. When you click on "Our projects" menu item the page will scroll to the place where this shortcode was inserted. This is a simple and effective way to create navigation menu on landing pages. - Go to theme options and disable top menu: Post Options > Customization > Menus > Top Panel Position > Hide
Thus you can create awesome landing page or single page website in a few clicks.
Once again, the core tool helping to create page navigation and add page anchors is [trx_anchor] shortcode. The theme scans page content, finds trx_anchor shortcodes and builds menu. To get more information regarding this shortcode please follow this link.
Reviews
We have a special rating system that can be easily integrated into any post or category. See how it works:
- In Appearance - Theme Options - Reviews add the required number of evaluation criteria. These criteria will be available when editing any post in any category. If your website publishes reviews in only one direction (for example, "Movies"), then you may leave it like this.
- Of course, we understand that to rate different areas (music, movies, technology, etc.) you need a
completely different rating criteria. Therefore, you can override the list of criteria in each category. To
do this, open Posts - Categories, select a category you want to modify, click on Edit button and
at the bottom of the page find
"Custom settings for this category" on the tab Reviews add new criteria
for evaluation.
IMPORTANT: The criteria established for a category is valid for all the posts in this category and sub-categories in it. -
Now, in any post, you can assess the subject of the article in the section Post Options on
the tab Reviews:
As a result you will see similar reviews panel on post pages
IMPORTANT: If you change the list of categories for the current post, first press "Update" ("Publish" if you save it for the first time) and then proceed with the installation of Review parameters . If your newly selected category is assigned a separate list of Review criteria, it will appear on the tab "Reviews" only after you save (update) the post!
IMPORTANT: In Appearance - Theme Options - Reviews you can choose the rating system for your posts: 5 stars, 10 stars or 100%. You can easily switch from one rating system to another at any moment!
Filter pages
Another great feature of the theme is built in post filters helping to sort posts according to their type of content in a simple and intuitive way. Among other posts you can select pages only containing reviews, Video only, Gallery Only, Audio Only
Lets see an example how to create a page that contains only posts with reviews. To do that we will have to use "Reviews filter" . For pages Videos filter, Audios filter or Galleries filter (if needed) configuration should be done the same way.
Only Reviews
Let's set up an "Reviews filter" page. To do this, you need to:
- Go to Pages under the WordPress menu and then click on Add New.
- Add page Title as usual ("Only Reviews" for example)
- Choose "Only Reviews" as the page's template
- Publish this page.
Now you can add this page to the menu, and users of your website will be able to pick from the entire number of posts only those containing Reviews; as for you - you will be able to set individual style of the page display.
Other filters
Video filter page, as well as gallery, courses, team members and others are similar to "Only Reviews"(see above). You can use the same procedure to create other filter pages.
Custom pages
Now we can prepare the other pages of our blog. This is not required, but if you want to change the display settings on Page 404, Archive pages or Search results - you have to create separate pages and customize them.
Consider the example of the Page 404. For pages Archive pages or Search results (if needed) configuration should be done the same way.
Page 404
Let's set up an error 404 page. To do this, you need to:
- Go to Pages under the WordPress menu and then click on Add New.
- Put your Title as usual ("Page 404" for example)
-
Choose "Page 404" as the page's template
- In "Post Options" area we set up the display of this page:
- We are hiding the header area of the page - Customization -> Header & Footer in the field "Show Top of page section" choose "No"
- We are hiding the additional info of the page - Blog and Single -> Single Page in the field "Show post info" choose "No"
- We are hiding the right sidebar - Customization -> Sidebars in the field "Show main sidebar" select "None (without sidebar)"
- We are removing details of (author, related posts, comments) - Blog and Single -> Single Page select "No" in corresponding fields
- Publish this page.
As a result, when you try to open non existing page on your site you will see page containing this message:
NOTICE! You can not preview 404 page using WordPress View page or Preview changes button. You should
type incorrect site URL to see 404 page.
To customize this page you should edit page template file in any text editor like Notepad or TextEdit. Open root folder of your theme and find /templates folder.
This folder contains 404.php file. You can open it in any text editor and change HTML code according to your needs.
Archives
Archives Page Setup is similar to "Page 404"(see above).
Search results
Archives Search Results is similar to "Page 404"(see above).

Here you should just populate selected sidebar with widgets and assign this sidebar to any page, post or category. Simply drag and drop selected widget to sidebar area as shown on an image below.
To add a sidebar to page simply go to Pages -> Edit page you want to modify, at the bottom of the page find
Post Options > Customization > Sidebars and select a sidebar you want to associate with this page. Click on Update button in top right corner, this will save changes to the page.
Custom widgets:
- Instagram Feed: Shows photos from Instagram account. IMPORTANT! You need to install "Smash Balloon Social Photo Feed" plug-in before using this widget. You can connect your Instagram account in the WP Dashboard > Instagram Feed > All Feeds > Add New. Please click here for more information.
- ThemeREX - Advertisement block: Used to insert advertising blocks - images with links or arbitrary HTML-blocks. IMPORTANT: Be careful to use extraneous HTML-code inorder not to disrupt the design of the page.
- ThemeREX - Subcategories List: Used to show subcategories list (children of selected category)
- ThemeREX - Flickr photos: Shows photos from Flickr account.
- ThemeREX - Advanced Calendar: Calendar for posts and/or Events.
- ThemeREX - Most Popular & Commented Posts: Displays the most visited and most commented articles.
- ThemeREX - QR Code generator: Generate QRCode with your personal data or with any text (links).
- ThemeREX - Recent Posts: Displays the most recent posts. Unlike the standard widget, it displays the post's featured image, author's name, comments or views number.
- ThemeREX - Recent Reviews: Displays the most recent reviews. Unlike the "Recent posts" widget, it displays only posts with reviews marks.

- ThemeREX - Top 10 posts: Displays the best Reviews (with the highest ratings) in the opinion of the authors and visitors.
- ThemeREX - Twitter: This widget shows the last Tweets from your Twitter-feed using the API 1.1 (entered into force in June 2013)
For its work, this version of the widget requires creating "Twitter Application" and obtaining the appropriate codes. Due to the fact that Twitter from June 2013 switched to the new API 1.1 and discontinued support of out-of-date API 1.0, now to get information out of this social network, you must create an account on the resource https://dev.twitter.com/apps. Then, click the "Create a new application", fill in the required fields and generate "Access token" and "Access token secret". As a result, you will get four important core values to work with Twitter API 1.1:- Consumer key
- Consumer secret
- Access token
- Access token secret
Contact form: This widget is not supplied, but you can easily create it using the widget "Text": just add widget "Text" in the right sidebar and paste the shortcode [trx_contact_form] into this widget. That's all!
Here is an example of how the Footer sidebar may look like:
Shortcodes
Shortcodes are a cool feature in WordPress that essentially allows you to do some pretty incredible things by just inserting a shortcode into a page or post. Using Shortcodes is a breeze, just insert one where you want the relevant content to show up.
The theme comes pre-packed with a number of shortcodes allowing you to add the info easier.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure to always start new shortcodes from new lines. Most of the time you won't encounter any errors if you don't do that but unfortunately WordPress does mess up the html sometimes. This is true for all shortcodes, but the inline ones like trx_highlight, those are the only ones that don't need a new paragraph.
Please note that almost all the shortcodes allow parameters:
- id - unique id for element. Allow to address this element form javascript or CSS
- class - class name for element. Allow set up additional decorations for element in CSS stylesheets.
IMPORTANT: You can use next common classes to decorate any shortcode:- theme_accent - main (accent) theme color used for decorate inner text of the shortcode
- theme_accent_bg - main (accent) theme color used as background (instead bg image) of the shortcode
- theme_accent_bgc - main (accent) theme color used as background color of the shortcode
- theme_accent_border - main (accent) theme color used as border color of the shortcode (if border present)
- theme_accent2 - accent2 theme color used for decorate inner text of the shortcode
- theme_accent2_bg - accent2 theme color used as background (instead bg image) of the shortcode
- theme_accent2_bgc - accent2 theme color used as background color of the shortcode
- theme_accent2_border - accent2 theme color used as border color of the shortcode (if border present)
- texture_bg_1 ... texture_bg_10 - set texture image for the shortcode's background
- bg_pattern_0 ... bg_pattern_9 - set pattern image for the shortcode's background (repeat, fill background)
- bg_image_1 ... bg_image_6 - set image for the shortcode's background (no repeat, fit to background)
[trx_section class="theme_accent_bgc texture_1"]Section inner text[/trx_section]
- top, bottom, left, right the value of which is the number - the margin in pixels from the top, bottom, left and right of the block respectively.
Also, note that "on | off" and "yes | no" in values of the parameters are interchangeable! That is, if the shortcode's description indicates that the value of a parameter can be "on" or "off", it means that along with them you can use the "yes" or "no".
Here's a list of the shortcodes included into the theme.

Woocommerce is an industry leader e-commerce plugin for WordPress. Another good news is that our theme is fully compatible with this great tool, allowing you to turn your website into sales machine in just few clicks. You simply need to install this plugin and allow it to create a set of pages to display categories, products etc. Then, you need to add a set of products.

A few words should be also said about how to set a page set created with WooCommerce. After you created these pages using the plugin, please open the menu "Pages" and set the display parameters for each of the pages. Setting of the the pages for WooCommerce is similar to the settings of Home pages and is described in this section.

The quantity of products displayed on shop page is inherited from the Appearance > Customize > WooCommerce > Product Catalog section. "Products per row" and "Rows per page" options work only if the "Shop list style" (Appearance > Theme Options > WooCommerce) is set to "Thumbs".

Emailer - mass e-mail distribution and collection of subscription lists
Our themes come with another great tool helping you keep in touch with your customers and site visitors. It's a small addon helping to collect emails and send newsletters. If you are running small project it's a great alternative to professional email services like MailChimp or Sendgrid.
WARNING: Before using mass email tool please check if your web hosting provider allows you to send mass email. Most of shared web servers stricktly prohibint sending mass emails and can block your account.
WARNING: If you have more than 1000 subscribers we highly recommend using professional mass email services to ensure high deliverability, high open/click rate. Always make sure you are using double opt-in email list, getting too many abuse reports may affect your site SEO. Remember, SPAM is no-no!
ADVICE: To keep your list healthy and up to date we recommend using Email validation service, this is a great tool to filter junk emails if you purchased emails list elsewhere!
Emailer Features:
- Emailer will help you to automatically create and update mailing lists.
- You can easily create a mailing list for an arbitrary list of clients, or you can use one of the lists as the basis, completing it with arbitrary set of addresses from a text file.
- Sent letters can be decorated using a standard WordPress editor.
- It's possible to add an attachment-file (a document or an archive) to the e-mail.
To enable "Emailer" go to Appearance -> Theme Options -> Service and select "Yes" in the field
"Enable Emailer in admin panel".
You will get a new menu item "Tools" - "Emailer".
How it works
Distribution lists - shortcode [trx_emailer]
If you want your site visitors to be able to subscribe to any kind of newsletters, simply create a page (post) newsletter description, and add a shortcode [trx_emailer group = "mail_delivery_name"] to it, where mail_delivery_name is a name of the list of subscribers. That's it!
As a result, a subscription form will appear on the page you've created above:
where your visitors can leave their e-mail address (with option dbl-in checking):
and after confirmation their email appear in the subscribers list:
The text for the checkbox "I agree..." is set in Appearance > Theme Options > General > Text with Privacy Policy link.
In order to add/customize the Privacy Policy link, navigate to Settings (WP Dashboard) > Privacy and specify the page that will be used as a Privacy Policy one.
Using menu Tools - Emailer you will do a distibution for this list:
Emailer consists of 2 basic panels:
- on the left hand - email composer that includes visual text editor, attachment form and subject line.
NOTICE! We do recommend reading general newsletter guide lines before sending emails, this helps to improve deliverability and not look spammy. - on the right - field to select one of the previously created mailing groups. If you want to create a
newsletter for an arbitrary list of addresses, in this field you don't have to choose anything, but simply
insert the e-mail address list into the next field - "List of recipients". Each address
in this field ("List of recipients") must begin from a new line or you must put signs
";" or "" between the addresses.
If you chose a group form the list, the field List of recipients will display the list of e-mail addresses from that group. IMPORTANT: In this list, you will see only confirmed addresses! Under the list of recipients, you can specify name and e-mail adress of the newsletter sender . If these fields are not filled out, the data are collected from WordPress settings: menu Settings - General.
To the right from the field of group selection, there is a set of switchers that allow to manage current group:- Update - update the list of e-mail addresses when sending an e-mail (if you edited it in the field below)
- Clear - delete unconfirmed addresses from the list of e-mail addresses when sending an e-mail
- Deleter - delete the entire group after sending an e-mail
NOTICE! A good practice of email marketing is adding extra paragraph to your privacy policy page covering terms of emails usage.
May the work with your mailings be pleasant, and most importantly, profitable!
Skins
INFORMATION ONLY FOR DEVELOPERS !
Skins help to change theme's general look and feel leaving both layout and functionality intact. Thus, if you are not going to change theme logic and / or the layout, but just want to change the background and color of any elements, replace fonts, round (or, on the contrary, straighten) the angles, add or remove shadows, animation etc . - in this case it would be more logical to create a new skin with all necessary changes.
On the other hand skins allow you to roll back to original theme look in just one click.
To find available theme skins simply navigate to Theme Options -> Customization -> General tab and click on Select theme skin dropdown menu.
Out of the box the theme comes with one skin which is actually used as a current design. Luckily creating your custom skin is very easy:
- Go to theme root directory and find /skins folder, open it
- Create a new folder and name it according to your new skin name, in example from a screenshot above we created /Custom folder
- Copy the content from existing skin to your new folder, rename files accordingly
- Make changes to CSS (read css files structure overview below)
Now, let's take a closer look at skin structure.
In the theme folder you see the folder named skins, that contains finished skins in the relevant subfolders. Folder name is the name of a skin.
Each skin consists of two main files:
- skin_name.css
- skin_name.php
Also, subfolder 'images' may include three files with logos:
- logo.png - main logo (displayed in the upper part of the website, close to menu), logo-footer.png -logo displayed
in the at the bottom of the website (in footer, near contacts), logo-icon.png - image for the button of side menu
opening.
Subfolder 'images' can also contain folder 'socials' with social networks icons. If there is no such folder in it, basic icons from the folder /images/socials in the root of the theme folder will be used.
Structure of the skin_name.css file
This file contains basic styles for the current skin and consists of three major parts:
- The first (required) part should include a description of colors, backgrounds and borders of basic elements of
the theme. It is located at the beginning of the file from the lines:
/* Theme Accent Color ------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
to the section beginning with the lines:/* Other skin settings ------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
You must not remove the selectors from this part. If you want to add some selectors to the description - after basic selectors please add a comment like / * Added in the skin_name * / and after it, specify the list of required selectors. For example, the skin "Car" require a few extra objects using main color of the theme:... .user-popUp .formItems.loginFormBody .remember .forgotPwd, .user-popUp .formItems.loginFormBody .loginProblem, .user-popUp .formItems.registerFormBody .i-agree a, .sc_slider_pagination_area .flex-control-nav.manual .slide_info .slide_title, /* Added in car */ label.required:before, .topWrap .usermenu_area a:hover, .topWrap .usermenu_area ul.usermenu_list > li.sfHover > a, .squareButton > a:hover, ... .twitBlock .sc_slider .flex-direction-nav li:hover a:before { color:#eda509; }
- Next is a section with additional settings - here you can add any css-rules required for the new skin. This
section begins with the comment:
/* Other skin settings ------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
- At the end of the file, slider settings can be located, if this skin is supposed to use a separate slider, and
the slider selected does not support embedded style tables (e.g., Royal Slider)
/* Slider ------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
Structure of the skin_name.php file
This file contains a set of actions and filters, required for a skin design. Let's examine it in more details:
-
// Add skin fonts in the used fonts list add_filter('theme_skin_use_fonts', 'theme_skin_use_fonts_politics'); function theme_skin_use_fonts_politics($theme_fonts) { $theme_fonts['Signika'] = 1; $theme_fonts['Source Sans Pro'] = 1; $theme_fonts['Fenix'] = 1; $theme_fonts['Inder'] = 1; return $theme_fonts; } // Add skin fonts in the main fonts list add_filter('theme_skin_list_fonts', 'theme_skin_list_fonts_politics'); function theme_skin_list_fonts_politics($list) { //$list['Advent Pro'] = array('family'=>'sans-serif', 'link'=>'Advent+Pro:100,100italic,300,300italic,400,400italic,500,500italic,700,700italic,900,900italic'); if (!isset($list['Signika'])) $list['Signika'] = array('family'=>'sans-serif', 'link'=>'Signika:400,700'); if (!isset($list['Source Sans Pro'])) $list['Source Sans Pro'] = array('family'=>'sans-serif'); if (!isset($list['Fenix'])) $list['Fenix'] = array('family'=>'serif', 'link'=>'Fenix:400,400italic'); if (!isset($list['Inder'])) $list['Inder'] = array('family'=>'sans-serif', 'link'=>'Inder:400'); return $list; }
These two filters specify which fonts are used in the skin. The first filter adds font names into the download list, the second one - into the list of fonts to choose in the theme options, as well as the second filter specifies family for each font (required) and a set of patterns used (optional). -
// Add skin stylesheets add_action('theme_skin_add_stylesheets', 'theme_skin_add_stylesheets_politics'); function theme_skin_add_stylesheets_politics() { themerex_enqueue_style( 'theme-skin', themerex_get_file_url('/skins/politics/education.css'), array('main-style'), null ); } // Add skin responsive styles add_action('theme_skin_add_responsive', 'theme_skin_add_responsive_politics'); function theme_skin_add_responsive_politics() { if (file_exists(themerex_get_file_dir('/skins/politics/politics-responsive.css'))) themerex_enqueue_style( 'theme-skin-responsive', themerex_get_file_url('/skins/politics/politics-responsive.css'), array('theme-skin'), null ); } // Add skin responsive inline styles add_filter('theme_skin_add_responsive_inline', 'theme_skin_add_responsive_inline_politics'); function theme_skin_add_responsive_inline_politics($custom_style) { $custom_style .= ' @media (min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1167px) { .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10, .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10 .royalSlider, .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10 .slideContent{ height: 495px !important;} .sliderHomeBulletsGap { height: 396px !important;} } @media (min-width: 800px) and (max-width: 1023px) { .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10, .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10 .royalSlider, .sliderHomeBullets.slider_alias_10 .slideContent{ height: 437px !important;} } ... '; return $custom_style; }
Next three functions are used to add styles of the current skin to the main theme. The first function enables main style file "skin_name.css" (must be included into the skin folder skin), the second functions - style file for rules for responsive (optional, enabled only if it's included into the skin folder). The third filter allows to specify rules that are enabled after main file 'responsive.css' right in the page body (inline). It can be used in case if there are little changes required for responsive and it doesn't make sense to create a separate file for them. -
// Add skin scripts add_action('theme_skin_add_scripts', 'theme_skin_add_scripts_politics'); function theme_skin_add_scripts_politics() { if (file_exists(themerex_get_file_dir('/skins/politics/education.js'))) themerex_enqueue_script( 'theme-skin-script', themerex_get_file_url('/skins/politics/education.js'), array('main-style'), null ); } // Add skin scripts inline add_action('theme_skin_add_scripts_inline', 'theme_skin_add_scripts_inline_politics'); function theme_skin_add_scripts_inline_politics() { ?> if (THEMEREX_theme_font=='') THEMEREX_theme_font = 'Roboto'; // Add skin custom colors in custom styles function theme_skin_set_theme_color(custom_style, clr) { custom_style += '.theme_accent2' +'{ color:'+clr+'; }' +'.theme_accent2_bgc,.sc_title_divider.theme_accent2 .sc_title_divider_before,.sc_title_divider.theme_accent2 .sc_title_divider_after,.sc_team .sc_team_item .sc_team_item_avatar:after' +'{ background-color:'+clr+'; }' +'.theme_accent2_bg' +'{ background:'+clr+'; }' +'.theme_accent2_border' +'{ border-color:'+clr+'; }'; return custom_style; } // Add skin's main menu (top panel) back color in the custom styles function theme_skin_set_menu_bgcolor(custom_style, clr) { return custom_style; } // Add skin's main menu (top panel) fore colors in the custom styles function theme_skin_set_menu_color(custom_style, clr) { return custom_style; } // Add skin's user menu (user panel) back color in the custom styles function theme_skin_set_user_menu_bgcolor(custom_style, clr) { return custom_style; } // Add skin's user menu (user panel) fore colors in the custom styles function theme_skin_set_user_menu_color(custom_style, clr) { return custom_style; } <?php }
Now, you can see two functions to enable javascript (if needed in the current skin). First function enables (if included in the skin folder) file 'skin_name.js'. If there is small number of such actions required, you can enable their inline in the second function. By default, second function contains set of callback functions to change theme colors extremely fast - by using customizer. -
// Return main theme color (if not set in the theme options) add_filter('theme_skin_get_theme_color', 'theme_skin_get_theme_color_politics', 10, 1); function theme_skin_get_theme_color_politics($clr) { return empty($clr) ? '#80ba0e' : $clr; } // Return main theme bg color add_filter('theme_skin_get_theme_bgcolor', 'theme_skin_get_theme_bgcolor_politics', 10, 1); function theme_skin_get_theme_bgcolor_politics($clr) { return '#ffffff'; } // Add skin's specific theme colors in the custom styles add_filter('theme_skin_set_theme_color', 'theme_skin_set_theme_color_politics', 10, 2); function theme_skin_set_theme_color_politics($custom_style, $clr) { $custom_style .= ' .theme_accent2 { color:'.$clr.'; } .theme_accent2_bgc, .sc_title_divider.theme_accent2 .sc_title_divider_before, .sc_title_divider.theme_accent2 .sc_title_divider_after, .sc_team .sc_team_item .sc_team_item_avatar:after { background-color:'.$clr.'; } .theme_accent2_bg { background:'.$clr.'; } .theme_accent2_border { border-color:'.$clr.'; } '; return $custom_style; }
Next set of functions is responsible for main theme color change. First two functions return main skin color(if it wasn't changed in Theme Options) and skin background color. The third function is automatically called when assigning a new color as main color of the theme. Here you must add those additional settings that you added into the main style file in the first section(see above, description of the skin_name.css structure) -
// Return skin's main menu (top panel) background color (if not set in the theme options) add_filter('theme_skin_get_menu_bgcolor', 'theme_skin_get_menu_bgcolor_politics', 10, 1); function theme_skin_get_menu_bgcolor_politics($clr) { return empty($clr) ? '#80ba0e' : $clr; } // Add skin's main menu (top panel) background color in the custom styles add_filter('theme_skin_set_menu_bgcolor', 'theme_skin_set_menu_bgcolor_politics', 10, 2); function theme_skin_set_menu_bgcolor_politics($custom_style, $clr) { return $custom_style; } // Add skin's main menu (top panel) fore colors in custom styles add_filter('theme_skin_set_menu_color', 'theme_skin_set_menu_color_politics', 10, 2); function theme_skin_set_menu_color_politics($custom_style, $clr) { return $custom_style; }
Next is the group of functions that are automatically called when changing main menu's background color. Here you can add your own rules to correct basic actions(if needed). -
// Return skin's user menu color (if not set in the theme options) add_filter('theme_skin_get_user_menu_bgcolor', 'theme_skin_get_user_menu_bgcolor_politics', 10, 1); function theme_skin_get_user_menu_bgcolor_politics($clr) { return empty($clr) ? '#292929' : $clr; } // Add skin's user menu (user panel) background color in the custom styles add_filter('theme_skin_set_user_menu_bgcolor', 'theme_skin_set_user_menu_bgcolor_politics', 10, 2); function theme_skin_set_user_menu_bgcolor_politics($custom_style, $clr) { return $custom_style; } // Add skin's user menu (user panel) fore colors in custom styles add_filter('theme_skin_set_user_menu_color', 'theme_skin_set_user_menu_color_politics', 10, 2); function theme_skin_set_user_menu_color_politics($custom_style, $clr) { return $custom_style; }
And finally, the filters called when changing additional theme color(the same used as custom menu's background). Here you may add some extra css-rules to change any of the theme elements that should accept the selected color in the current skin.
Theme Translation
We recommend using Poedit software for translation-related purposes. To translate the theme to your language, please follow these steps:
- Download and install Poedit software.
- Navigate to the theme/.../languages/ folder and locate .pot file. Copy it to your desktop for editing.
- Double click on the .pot file. In the Poedit window click on the "Create New Translation" button, choose the necessary language of the translation from the dropdown list and click "OK."
- Now select the constant text string you need to translate from the "Source text - English" field and type in the necessary translation into the "Translation" field. You can translate as much as you want, just go through the file and click on each string in Poedit and add your translation.
- Next, you have to save the changes to your .po file using the naming convention based on the language code (e.g. pt for Portuguese) followed by the country code (for instance _BR for Brazil).
To do that click on the "sheet" icon (you can also use hotkeys CMD+Shift+S in OS X or Win+S in Windows) and type in the name according to the screenshot below. The first lower-case letters define the language, whereas the second upper-case letter defines the country. In most cases, the language and country are the same, like “de_DE” for Germany. However, there is a difference for languages like English or Portuguese, which are spoken in several countries natively. In this case, the difference is in the first and second letter pairs; for the UK, the code would be en_GB, whereas the en_US stands for the USA. If you are not familiar with the codes for your native language and country, then visit the GNU website.
See Language Codes and Country Codes for the lists of codes.
Please note, if you use the wrong naming convention WordPress can not process your translation.
- When saving your .po file, Poedit automatically creates a new .mo file, with the same naming convention. According to the example above, the file would be called pt_BR.mo.
- Upload the .po and .mo files you just created to the .../languages/ folder. Make sure these files are in the same directory as the default.pot one.
- OPTIONAL! Only for themes with WordPress version 4.0 or lower.
The last step is to tell WordPress what language to display. Open your wp-config.php file in a text editor and search for: define('WPLANG', ''); string. Edit this line according to the .mo file you should already have downloaded (e.g. for the Portuguese spoken in Brazil you need to add define ('WPLANG', 'pt_BR');).
In case you still have questions on how to use Poedit, please check the following resources:
