Theme Setup Wizard

↑ Back to top

Once activated, you will be redirected to the theme setup page.

You can find the Theme Setup Wizard under Appearance > Theme Setup in case you decide to return to the dashboard and continue with it later on.

1. Required Plugins

The WooCommerce plugin is required in order for Treehouse to work. If the WooCommerce plugin is missing or is not active, theme features and demo import will not be complete.

If you skipped the required plugins step, you can manually install and activate WooCommerce. It can be installed through the WordPress admin dashboard or by uploading the plugin archive through FTP.

Installing WooCommerce through the WordPress admin dashboard

  1. Go to Plugins -> Add New.
  2. Search for “WooCommerce”.
  3. In the search results, click on Install Now.
  4. When the installation is done, click on Activate button.

2. Demo Import

The automatic importer will import posts, pages, products and set the site to look like the demo. This way it will recreate the minimal theme’s demo setup so you don’t need to start from scratch. The demo import may take a few minutes.

You can select the components you want to be imported from the Advanced list, so you don’t end up with undesired content.

Theme Update

↑ Back to top

Once you connect your site and WooCommerce.com account, you will receive update notifications in your WordPress dashboard as soon as they’re made available allowing you to update the theme with one click or set up automatic updates.

If you still need to manually update your theme, follow the details at Updating Your Theme.
