TheM

Welcome! First of all, we want to thank you for purchasing our TheM WordPress Theme.

In the following sections, we will show you how to set up and use TheM theme the easiest way possible. Although there’re a lot of things written in this documentation, the theme itself is not very hard to use. This file is more of a reference if you do not know what to do, or if you are not familiar with WordPress.

#Files Included

The download package (.zip) that you get from ThemeForest contains the following files and folder:

• them.zip: Main theme file that needs to be uploaded to host to install TheM theme
• docs.html: Theme documentation (this file)
• them-demo-import.zip: The plugin for demo import

#Installation

We have written a very detailed guide on how to download and install a WordPress theme from ThemeForest, please follow the instruction in that article.

Also, please follow the guide to import the demo content if you want to have the site looks exactly like our demos.

#Configure plugins

To make sure the plugins work well with your blog, you should configure them a little bit as below:

Jetpack:

This plugin requires you to connect to WordPress.com to use its functionality. However, if you don’t want to connect to WordPress.com, you can still use it freely by following these steps:

• Use an FTP software like FileZilla to connect to your host
• Open the file wp-config.php in the installed WordPress folder
• Add the following line at the beginning of the file, below <?php

define( 'JETPACK_DEV_DEBUG', true);

For more information, please read this guide.

By default, TheM uses 2 modules of Jetpack: Custom Content Types and Infinite Scroll:

• If you want to show portfolio on your blog, then you need to activate Custom Content Types module.
• If you want to have infinite scroll for the blog post, portfolio or shop, then you need to activate Infinite Scroll module.

Go to Jetpack → Settings and activate the modules you want to use.

There are several useful modules that you might want to use. Just activate them and try! Jetpack is a very powerful plugin and one of the most popular plugins for WordPress. It’s well developed and actively maintained by Automattic, the organization behind WordPress.

WooCommerce:

To make sure product images are displayed beautifully, we need to adjust WooCommerce settings.

Go to WooCommerce → Settings and click on the tab Products. Then click on Display link and change the image sizes as shown in this screenshot:

YITH WooCommerce Compare:

Go to YITH Plugins → Compare and set Link or Button option to Link as follows:

#Setup the homepage

The homepage of TheM has several sections that help you to show your content in an attractive way. You can drag and drop these sections to reorder them or remove them completely. It’s fully customizable and extremely flexible for your website.

#Homepage overview

The homepage has 5 sections (see the screenshot):

1. Slider
2. Featured Posts
3. Featured Post
4. Instagram
5. Featured Post

Each section represents itself a widget, which allows you to edit its configuration easily. You can also use WordPress widget management system to reorder them as you wish.

The homepage uses a specialized sidebar (called Homepage) to display its content. The widgets which can be configured in the Customizer or Widgets page in the dashboard.

#Create homepage

In order to build the homepage the same as in the demo, you need to create two pages, one for your homepage and one for your blog page. Go to Pages → Add New and create a page titled Front Page and a page titled Blog. You can also name these pages anything you like, but for the sake of website organization, we recommend using the name Front Page and Blog.

For the homepage, after you have given your page a title, select Homepage from the list of available Templates on the right as the following screenshot:

After creating a page and applying the homepage template, you should set it as the static front page by going to Settings → Reading and select A static page (select below) for Front page displays, and then select the page from the dropdown for Front page as follows:

#Homepage sidebar and widgets

The content below the main menu (slider, featured posts, etc.) is the Homepage sidebar. We make several widgets for you to add your content to the homepage easier. You can add any other widget to the homepage if you want to (text widget, gallery widget).

To start adding content to Homepage sidebar, go to the Dashboard → Appearance → Widgets, you will see the Homepage sidebar as well as all available widgets:

Another way to add and edit widgets is using the Customizer. Do that by clicking Customizer in the admin bar and select Widgets, then select Homepage section:

We will use the Customizer in the documentation as it allows you to view the changes in real-time without reloading the page.

Now let’s go through the homepage widgets.

#Section: Featured Content as Creative Slider

The slider is a collection of featured posts that are displayed in a special slider with a unique effect for text and image. You are able to select which posts to show in the slider as well as which elements to show. This is a good place if you want to highlight the best posts in your blog.

In the Homepage sidebar in the Customizer, click button Add a Widget, you will see a list of available widgets on the right where you can search for widgets and add them. Here we will search for TheM: Featured Posts widget and click on it to add to the Homepage sidebar.

The widget has several options for you to adjust:

Category	Which category you want to get posts from. Select All if you want to show posts in all categories.

#Section: Featured Content as Grid

Similar to the creative slider, the grid of featured posts displays posts in a 3-column or 4-column grid. This is also a good place to highlight your posts.

The grid of featured posts uses exactly the same widget as the slider (Featured Posts). The only difference is you do not check the option to Display as the slider.

Note: In order to have the best view, you should set the number of posts to 3 or 4.

#Section: Featured post

The Featured Post widget allows you to show a single post in the homepage beautifully. That’s a good option to show the post that highlights the main content of your blog.

To add the widget to the homepage, select TheM: Featured Post from the widget list:

The widget has several options for you to adjust:

Then you will be redirected to a page where your user ID and access token are displayed.

You can change all theme options in one place and preview the changes in real-time! There are various options for the theme and they’ll be explained in the sections below

#General options

The general options are located under General section. There is only 1 option for the website site icon. The site icon is an icon associated with a website or web page intended to be used when you bookmark the web page. Web browsers use them in the URL bar, on tabs, and elsewhere to help identify a website visually. Also, it is used as application icon of the mobile device.

#Header options

#Top bar

The top bar is divided into 2 parts: the top bar left and top bar right. Each part can have the following content:

• Social icons
• Functional icons (search, cart, mobile menu icons)
• A custom menu
• Custom text

By default top bar left displays social links and top bar right displays functional icons. To change which is displayed in the top bar left, please go to Customizer → Theme Options → Header and you will see the options as follows:

Simply select which type of content you want to display for each part of the top bar.

If you want to display text , simply select Text option and enter the text in the input below. Note that you can enter HTML here, so it’s good for you to display a welcome text with a link or something.

If you want to display social links in the top bar, then you need to create a custom menu for social links and set it to display here. To do that, follow these steps:

• Go to Customizer > Menu and click the button Add a Menu.
• Click the button Add Items and select Custom Links in the list.
• Enter link to your social profile and click Add to Menu.
• Repeat the process to add more links to your social profiles in other social networks.
• When you’re done, check the checkbox Social Links Menu in the section Menu locations to make it display in the top bar.

If you want to display a custom menu in the top bar, then you need to create a custom menu and set it to display here. To do that, follow these steps:

• Go to Customizer → Menu and click the button Add a Menu.
• Click the button Add Items and select Custom Links in the list.

Note: when you set a menu for social links, these links will be displayed in the footer and About me widget as well as in the mobile menu.

#Logo

By default, TheM display the site title but you can change that to display site logo. The site logo feature requires WordPress 4.5, so you need to upgrade your WordPress to version 4.5 if you have an older version. If you couldn’t upgrade, then the only option for you is displaying the site title.

In order to add a logo to your site, go to Customizer → Theme Options → Header and click the button Select logo to upload the logo or select from the Media Library.

You also can choose the logo position below as center (default), left or right.

When choosing the position left or right, you have an option to minimize the main menu to the toggle icon like in the Minimal demo

#Main menu

Although the theme is working now and it shows menu, but because we haven’t created a menu for primary location, the theme will display all pages by default. As the number of pages is large, displaying all of them in the menu is a bad idea.

Following these steps to create a menu (here we will use the WordPress Dashboard instead of the Customizer because this allow us to add mega menu as described in the next section):

• Go to Appeance → Menus
• Select an existing to edit, or click Add a menu. Note: when you import the demo, you already have a menu Main, so select it if you want to have same menu as in the demo.
• Click Add items to add items to the menu
• When you’re done adding menu items, check Primary Menu for Theme locations at the bottom of the page

#Mega menu

One of the best feature of TheM is mega menu. The mega menu allows you to display custom content in the menu, not only links. You can choose to display custom text or post list in the menu.

In order to use mega menu, you need to use the WordPress Dashboard, not the Customizer. Go to Appearannce → Menus and follow the steps below:

Click on a top-level menu item to edit it, you will see an checkbox for Enable mega menu? This option allows you to display its submenu items in a mega menu:

Then add a Custom Link as a submenu item for this item, you will see the following options:

Let’s break it out:

Option	Description
Layout	The layout of this submenu item.
Item type	The type of the content of this submenu item. It has 2 options: Text which displays a custom text (similar to the text widget in WordPress) or Posts which displays a list of posts.

If you choose item type Text, you will see an option for the Content. Simply enter the content you want to display. HTML and shortcodes are allowed. (See the screenshot above)

If you choose item type Posts, then you will see more options like this:

After done editing, click Save Menu and see it in action in the front end.

#Mobile menu

There is also 1 option for the mobile menu here. The mobile menu is displayed when you click on the toggle icon on the top bar (if you choose top bar left / right displays functional icons, or you can see it on mobile devices). The option allows you to select which type of content will be displayed in the mobile menu: the main menu and social icons or widgets.

If you choose the main menu and social icons then all items of the main menu and social icons will be displayed in the mobile menu.

If you choose widgets then you need to go to Customizer → Widgets and you will see a new sidebar Mobile. Simply add new widgets to this sidebar and they’ll display in the mobile menu.

#Footer options

#Typography options

One of the coolest features of the TheM theme is custom typography. This feature allows you to select custom fonts, font sizes, font styles for various elements on the website without touching code. TheM supports all Google Fonts (more than 700 fonts) which is the largest free collection of fonts available on the Internet.

• Primary menu
• Post title

These are the main elements of the website and for each element, TheM sets up a necessary group of settings to adjust such as:

• Font family: which can be selected from 700+ fonts from Google Fonts. To see how they look, you can simply select them and see the changes in real-time or go to http://google.com/fonts and search for the font name.

• Line height: in pixels. Leave it blank to use the default value.
• Text transform: UPPERCASE, lowercase, Capitalize

Note that some elements don’t have all the above settings. We add only the settings with a serious consideration that those settings are really needed for the elements.

If you want to change typography for other elements or custom the fonts more deeply, please see the documentation for custom CSS in the Design options section.

#Portfolio options
