First, thank you for purchasing our theme!

This guide provides instructions for installation, help on getting started and extensive documentation of features. It is recommended you read it thoroughly to fully leverage the Grulf theme's capabilities. Please also make sure to check out our Video Tutorials as they explain everything covered in here in greater depth. We hope you enjoy building with Grulf as much as we enjoyed developing it and continue to develop with new features!

Before beginning the installation and configuring of your new theme, you must first have WordPress already installed on a server.

If you are struggling, here is a very detailed guide at WordPress Codex that will walk you through every step.

If you prefer something more visual, you can watch this video tutorial on how to install Wordpress by us

(Please note the video shown is third party video, but the same process applies)

Once you have setup a copy of WordPress, there are multiple ways you can go about installing the theme. Here are different ways:

1. Install theme via "Envato Market" plugin (recommended)
2. Install theme via WordPress admin panel
3. Install theme via FTP

1. Install theme via "Envato Market" plugin

This is the easiest method to install our theme. Just install "Envato Market" plugin and configure it. This "Envato Market" plugin also provides one-click update feature for our theme. We will create a video for this.

Also here is step by step guide with details and images:

• First, install Envato Market plugin. Click here to download the plugin. This will download the zip file with the plugin in it. No need to unzip it – we’ll be installing it as is. Now that you have the plugin, go ahead and log into WordPress admin section.

Envato Market Plugin Setup

• To get started click on the "Envato Market" link in your dashboard menu. You should see a screen similar to the one below. The very first step is to create an Envato API token. To do this, click on the generate a personal token link (highlighted in red below).

  

  
  

• If you’re already logged into your Envato account you’ll be token to the screen below (otherwise you will be prompted to login first before being redirected to this page). On this screen you can see what the Envato Market plugin is requesting permission to access via your Envato account (Envato sites, the ability to download your items, a list of your purchases and verification of your purchases). To proceed give your token a name, check the box that you have read and agree to the terms and then click the green button to create your token.

  
  
  

• Once your token is created you will see a green success screen. Copy your token code (this is very important since Envato doesn’t store a copy of the token for you), check to confirm that you’ve copied it and click the white button that you got it.

  
  
  

• Now go back to your WordPress installation and paste in your Envato API token then click save.

  
  
  

• It’s possible that you might see the error (shown below) when you first enter your token. Don’t worry, just go back to the previous page and try again. It should work on the second go.

  
  
  

• Once your token is saved and validated your page will refresh to show your Envato Market landing page with added tabs for your items. The added tab(s) display all of your theme and plugin purchases as well as their version numbers and quick links to the theme and author pages. So now you can install theme and also update theme in just one click.

• Translate using "Loco Translate" plugin (recommended)
• Translate using POEdit Software

Translate using "Loco Translate" plugin

2. Install and activate the plugin.

3. Now go to Loco Translate section and click on Grulf theme.

4. Click on the New Language link.

5. Now select the new language. Also make sure you select the last option (the languages/themes/file.po option) so it will store file in "wp-content" folder.

6. Now it's ready to translate all texts. Just select the text which you want to translate and than write the translated text.

7. When finished, just click on Save button to save changes

Translate using POEdit Software

1. Create Translation File

Inside the Grulf main theme folder, you will find a folder called languages. There is a file called grulf.pot in this folder. This file can be used as a starting point to create your own translations, using e.g. a third party tool like POEdit.

Open the grulf.pot in POEdit by selecting "New from POT/PO file...".

Once it has loaded, you will find all English text strings in the left column called Source Text. Once you add translations, they will show up in the right column under Translation.

2. Save Translation File

When you are done translating all the needed text strings into your desired language, save the file in /wp-content/languages/themes/ folder with language code in name. For example, if you were translating to the Deutsch language, you would save it as grulf-de_DE.po. The corresponding grulf-de_DE.mo file will be auto created by POEdit software.

Now upload both grulf-de_DE.po and grulf-de_DE.mo file on your server in /wp-content/languages/themes/ folder. If you are not sure for your language code than click here to get list of code for each language.
