The purpose of a Starter theme is to help you code an individual website from scratch. It’s a boilerplate that helps you get started faster with your next project. Creating a Child Theme for one of the Starter Themes is usually not required and not recommended.

Autoupdates only make sense for predesigned Themes which are very restrictive in manual code customization or for multipurpose Themes which usually have a bloated code base with several external dependencies.

1. You should be familiar in Working with WordPress and have read the WordPress tutorial Adding new Themes.
2. If you want to install a new Theme, WordPress needs to be up and running on your web server. Unfortunately we cannot support you on general questions related to your CMS or to setting up a server.
3. If you’re using Plugins, make sure that they are updated to the latest version.
4. A general Step-by-step tutorial has been created and should be read carefully before setting up your pages or before getting in touch in our forums. The official Demo Theme instances have additional information which can be useful.
5. Don’t forget to create Backups before making any major changes to your Website.

Our test environment is built upon a clean state of the art WordPress installation.

For compatibility and security reasons we recommend to always use the latest version. Keep your WordPress system updated and don’t forget to make regular backups!

That’s the purpose of Starter Themes. You can use the WordPress’ Customizer (Classic Themes) or the Site Editor (Block Themes) which both allow you to tweak Settings, modify the Color scheme and see a preview of those changes in real time.

If you have development skills and need to make deeper modifications with style updates you can use the included webpack workflow. Please head over to the “Getting started” docs which can be found in the Theme landing pages.

All Themes can be extended with translations in any language. You can manage and edit the translation files from the backend using a Plugin.

Our Starter Themes are built with care and do work with WordPress 5.0+ which incorporated Gutenberg for the first time — But please note that the Starter Themes only include minimal styles. This means that you have to include any Block-specific styles by yourself.

If you need Support on external Plugins you need to contact the Plugin author.
