Shepard WordPress Theme Installation
Once you have installed WordPress (see details here) and logged in to admin panel, you can install Shepard theme.
To upload Shepard theme to your server via FTP, you need to unzip and copy all the files from “Shepard ” folder to wp-content/themes/shepard directly on the server (use only lower case letters!). Thereafter Shepard theme will be available for activation in WP admin panel: Appearance/Themes. Again, you can activate it by clicking “Activate”.
Before activation turn all your plugins off – they may affect. We don’t guarantee compatibility with additional plugins.
For correct functionality, please, make sure the following folders have the “777” access settings:
/wp-content/themes/shepard /images/social_icons
/wp-content/themes/shepard/images/theme_icons
And also you’ll have to create a new folder with “777” settings:
/wp-content/uploads
You can do it via your FTP client. Open a drop-down menu by clicking the right mouse on one of the folders, specified above. Choose there “access rights” (or maybe something similar) and make changes. Also apply this for the subfolders and nested files.
Please, don’t set the “777” permission rights to whole “Shepard” folder for security reasons.
