07:24 How to make your theme look like the demo
TO edit your site’s theme you would first want to log into your WordPress site, to do this you would log into your WordPress site. If you don’t know how to log into your site, you would go to your domain and add /wp-admin to go to your login page where you can insert your login information.
Under Appearance, Themes you would normally only see one theme if you have one installed or a list of all of the themes you have installed on your site. You can use the add new button in the top left to see all of the free and freemium themes available to you from the WordPress repository.
Should you not be able to see the same themes or are unable to install plugins then you are likely on WordPress.com instead of WordPress.org which we cover. For a comparison of WordPress.com and WordPress.org you would want to take a look at our article below:
If you are wanting to use a premium theme, then you would download the theme from the theme provider, and go back to your WordPress admin area under Appearance, Themes, and once you click add new the button should update to the option to upload your downloaded zip file for your theme.
To make your theme look like the demo we would recommend taking a look at your theme’s documentation for if they have a recommendation for a starter pack or if they have demo content. If you’re using the Astra theme then we would recommend installing their Starter Templates for getting the template set up.
For the next video in this setup, we would recommend taking a look at our video below:

Finally someone answers this for me…thank you!
I worked in Bluehost 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you so much !! I've been installing theme after theme wondering that the next theme that I install would look like the one in the showcased demo :/ Now i know why.
Hello,
There is no upload theme button in my WordPress. Do I need to upgrade my blog from a personal plan to a business plan so I can install a theme I downloaded or bought from elsewhere?
When I clicked "Add New", it will lead to the Add Themes page, but the page appears to have empty space. I can only see Featured, Popular, Latest, Favorites and the Feature Filter tabs. The search bar is gone. Can you assist?
Thank you 🙏
hi i bought a theme from themeforest (envato) , on your guide i go as per you're instructions but im unable to see ADD NEW button on THEMES. Do i have to buy the premium of WP too.
Thanks a lot…
Thank you! Loved the explanations and your pace. Definitely a subscriber 😊😊
I am having so much trouble getting started. I want to select Astra for my theme so that I can easily follow your tutorial. It isn’t showing on my computer. What can I do?
you're a wizard! this stuff is basic for the pros but for people who are creating their first wordpress site this is gold. Thank you <3
My dad has rental property so which free or premium theme should I use to build a website for him.
Thank you for this!! Please, one question. After I installed and customize my website, as I use a multi-purpose template, which is very heavy, looks like is very slow to navigate throughout my website. How can I delete pages or data (I'm not sure what or how) that I do not use or how can I make the navigation faster??
came back the second time and liked and commented
Could I kindly ask? Which version of wordpress is this?
Please visit this website https://ristechy.com and tell me which theme are they using ang how can I use this kind of theme?
i ended up at bluehost hosting bought a basic plan ,,but how could i know if it is .com or .org and how to convert to .org
yeah u gotta pay 300 up front no thank you
You're awesome – thank you for making it so clear
brilliant
Absolutely Brilliant! Thankyou . . .
How to install Educavo damo theme?
Thank you so much. I've been trying to figure this out since last night! 😩
I have gone through about 3 or 4 videos on YouTube and yours was the most helpful. Also thank you for posting the timestamps so we know where to go to get the info we are looking for. Most appreciated! New subscriber. I'm pretty sure I'll be watching more of your videos soon. ✌🏾
I just purchased my website on wordpress.com? so what do i do now?
this is so helpful
Even though i have personel account on WordPress, it is not letting me install a theme. It asked me to upgrade the business plan. Is that how it works ?
Thanks
Very helpful tutorial and easy to follow. I got question though and it is not about WordPress:)
I loved your screensaver 6:35 how did you do that? Thanks
you are a legend
I'm going to subscribe and follow your teaching
This is brilliant. So clearly explained, thank you.
Thank you teacher
What do I do if in the themes area, there is no button that says "add new theme"?
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work with basic plans. There is no "Add Theme", only an "Upload theme" and that is only available for premium plans. It also doesn't give you an option to search for themes so you can only use what they show.
thank you so much
you didn't answer the question how can I activate the template and make it look like the demo ? I didn't find my theme in the starter templates catalogue
I started using the twenty twenty theme…. but see those huge ugly red boxes? I don't understand why those are there and how to get rid of them…. why are they there?
You are the BEST, thanks for this.
Thanks
am new to wordpress and my difficulty is ,some of the themes i preview or actvate do not appear as i expect them or as i saw them before choosing them any solution…?
hi .. i have just 1 question
where did you download the second theme I am very confused ?
now it's no longer possible, because you have to subscribe to be a business to be able to use it
Thank you!
Wow, I feel so silly, I was getting frustrated because I couldn't get the downloaded file to add! You have helped me so much! Thank you!
Why is everyone using Astra instead of actually showing how to customise your premium theme?
I am not able to import template
excellent content, will be binge watching it all..have become a subscriber
Got exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot.
