: What are all these parts???
: artlee August 25, 2015, 05:34:31 PM
I'm new to WP. Just signed up for 1 site for 3 months while I learn. I downloaded a file called Shape5_Corpway_WP.zip and another one called SiteShaper_Shape5_Corpway_WP.zip. What the heck is the difference? I found a tutorial on how to install SiteShaper but have not found an explanation on what it is and how its different from the theme... Sorry for being dense...

I have installed WP on a server. Site is running. It seems to include several themes. I wanted to try a commercial theme. Now what?

Hello,

One of those files is for the Site Shaper which would be for the included demo content you see on the demos such as widgets, post/page content and plugins.

The other one would be just the theme without any demo content. The site will almost appear blank with this until you start adding content and widgets to positions.

Regards,

To put it a different way:

The site shaper is a full WordPress install, including the database content from the demo site; this gives you the theme, all the sample content, and any plugins used on the demo.

Thank you... Okay, I get it now. As I say, I'm new to WP, but have working with Joomla for several years.

I do have another questions: I can't figure out how to replace the theme logo with my own logo... I'm missing something here... I'm using corpway.

I'll answer that question in the other thread you already started (http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,75/topic,40994).

Thanks.... Looks like I have an answer there. I didn't check earlier because I hadn't received an email that there was an answer. Thanks. I've just updated the logo.

If you have any additional questions, feel free to start a new thread on the board for the theme (it helps me keep track of what's solved vs. what isn't).

Will do... Is there a way to mark threads here as solved? Or do we do that. This is the first Shape5 theme/template and I like the looks of them. Time to think of something other than RocketTheme.

If you want to mark the thread as solved, I believe you are able to edit the title of the original post.  And, if you agree that it has been solved satisfactorily, I'll go ahead and lock the thread.

Yes, this has been solved... thanks
