Theme Installation :

There are 2 ways to install a WordPress theme. Both ways will allow you to easily upload and install the WordPress theme files for a quick and easy setup.

Installing Theme from the WordPress Dashboard

Install theme via FTP

The second option how to install this theme would be the upload via FTP manager. It really doesn’t matter which of the two ways you choose, just choose the one you feel more comfortable with.

• Login to your FTP account and navigate to your WordPress installation directory

• You found the theme and click Activate

Known problems when installing the theme

1. The “Broken theme and/or stylesheets missing” error is most common when you install or activate a new theme.

# How to create Child Theme

What is a Child Theme?

A child theme is a theme that inherits the functionality of another theme, called the parent theme. Child themes allow you to modify, or add to the functionality of that parent theme. A child theme is the best, safest, and easiest way to modify an existing theme, whether you want to make a few tiny changes or extensive changes. Instead of modifying the theme files directly, you can create a child theme and override within.

Why use a Child Theme?

if you modify an existing theme and it is updated, your changes will be lost. With a child theme, you can update the parent theme (which might be important for security or functionality) and still keep your changes. It’s a great way to get started if you are just learning WordPress theme development.

• Follow that documentation to create Child Theme Child Themes - Codex
• Using that plugin to create Child Theme One Click Child Theme

You need to use a Child Theme only if you are making code customizations.
