Theme Installation

Method 1: Install via WordPress Dashboard (Recommended)

Click Install on the CleanWP theme, then click Activate.

Method 2: Upload via WordPress Dashboard

Download the cleanwp.zip theme file from WordPress.org.
Log in to your WordPress Dashboard.
Navigate to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
Click Choose File, select the cleanwp.zip file, and click Install Now.
After installation, click Activate.

Method 3: Upload via FTP/File Manager

Download the cleanwp.zip theme file and extract it.
Connect to your server via FTP (FileZilla) or use your hosting File Manager.
Upload the extracted cleanwp folder to /wp-content/themes/.
Go to your WordPress Dashboard → Appearance → Themes and activate CleanWP.

Troubleshooting Installation Issues

"The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive" – Your hosting limits file uploads. Increase the limit via php.ini, .htaccess, or contact your host. Alternatively, use FTP.
"The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet" – You may be uploading the wrong file. Make sure you upload only the cleanwp.zip file.

Import Demo Content

You can import the demo content, widgets, and Customizer settings shown in the CleanWP theme demo.

Manual Demo Import

Step 1: Import Main Site Content

This includes: Posts, pages, menus, media, categories, tags, comments, and custom fields.

Download: XML File
Go to Tools → Import.
Under "WordPress", click Install Now if not installed.
Click Run Importer.
Select the XML file and click Upload file and import.
Check "Download and import file attachments", click Submit.

Step 2: Import Widgets

Install the Widget Importer & Exporter plugin.
Go to Tools → Widget Importer & Exporter.
Copy content from: Widgets .wie File and paste into the box.
Click Import Widgets.

Step 3: Import Customizer Settings

Download: Customizer File
Install the Customizer Export/Import plugin.
Go to Appearance → Customize → Export/Import.
Select the .dat file, check "Download and import image files?", click Import.

Regenerate Thumbnails

If your website already has existing posts with featured images, it's highly recommended to regenerate thumbnails after activating the CleanWP theme. This ensures that all images match the new theme's layout and display sizes.

Regenerating thumbnails is optional if your site is completely new and doesn't have any uploaded images yet.

However, if you imported the demo content, regenerating thumbnails is essential to display images correctly across the site.

Install and activate the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin.
Go to Tools → Regenerate Thumbnails.
Click the "Regenerate Thumbnails for All x Attachments" button to start the process.
Wait until all images are regenerated. This may take a few minutes depending on your media library size.
If you want, you can deactivate and delete the plugin once the process is complete.

This step ensures clean image alignment and sharp visuals throughout your website using the CleanWP theme.

Header Image

Use the WordPress Customizer to add or manage the header image that appears at the top of your site.

How to add a header image

Go to Appearance → Customize → Header Image.
Click Add new image and choose/upload your image (recommended width: 1100px or larger).
Crop if prompted, then click Publish.

Useful information

Suggested Dimensions – The recommended header image width is 1100px with a height of 275px. The height is flexible.
Header Image Link – The header image links to your homepage by default.
Hide Header Text – You can hide the site title and tagline text from the header via Appearance → Customize → Site Identity.

If you remove the header image, the site title, tagline, and logo will still be displayed in the header area.

Navigation Menus

This theme includes one Display Location for menus: Primary Menu.

Right after installing the theme, WordPress may display your existing pages as the default menu items in these locations. You can replace them with your own custom menus containing links, categories, pages, and more by following the steps below:

Go to Appearance → Menus and click the create a new menu link.
Enter a name for your menu in the Menu Name field.
Select a display location for your menu by checking one of the available options under Display location
Click the Create Menu button.
To add items to the menu, use the options in the left-hand column—select the pages, posts, categories, or tags you want, then click Add to Menu.
To create dropdown menus, simply drag and nest the submenu items beneath the parent menu item.
Once you've added your links, click the Save Menu button.

Widget Areas

There are 4 widget areas in the CleanWP theme. The free version does not bundle custom widgets; use WordPress core widgets or plugins of your choice inside these areas.

Main Sidebar

Right-hand sidebar for your pages/posts. This sidebar is located on the right side of the web page.
Footer 1

Footer column 1. This widget area is located on the left bottom of the web page.
Footer 2

Footer column 2. This widget area is located on the middle bottom of the web page.
Footer 3

Footer column 3. This widget area is located on the right bottom of the web page.

Page Templates

CleanWP includes two custom page templates you can use for full-width layouts without sidebars.

Full Width, no sidebar (Page) — Template for pages (template-full-width-page.php)
Full Width, no sidebar (Post) — Template for posts (template-full-width-post.php)

How to apply a template

Edit a page or post in the WordPress editor.
In the Page Attributes (or Post Attributes) panel, open the Template dropdown.

Translation & RTL

CleanWP is fully translation-ready and supports Right-to-Left (RTL) languages like Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian out of the box.

🌐 Translating the Theme

The theme includes a cleanwp.pot file located in the /languages folder inside the theme directory. You can use this file to create translations in your own language using any of the following tools:

Poedit – Desktop translation editor (view tutorial)
Loco Translate – Translate the theme directly from your WordPress dashboard (view tutorial)

After translating, save your files as:

cleanwp-[language_code].po
cleanwp-[language_code].mo

Place them inside the /languages folder in the theme.

↔️ RTL Language Support

CleanWP includes built-in RTL support. If your WordPress site language is set to an RTL language, the theme will automatically adjust layout direction, alignment, and spacing accordingly. No extra setup required.

If you're customizing your site with RTL content, make sure your text widgets, menus, and custom styles are also RTL-compatible for best results.

Performance & SEO Tips

Here are some best practices to improve your site's performance and SEO when using CleanWP:

Use a caching plugin — Install W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, or LiteSpeed Cache to improve page load times.
Optimize images — Use plugins like Imagify or EWWW Image Optimizer to compress images.
Use a CDN — A Content Delivery Network (e.g., Cloudflare) serves your content from servers closest to your visitors.
Install an SEO plugin — Use Yoast SEO or Rank Math to manage meta tags, sitemaps, and structured data.
Keep WordPress updated — Always use the latest versions of WordPress, themes, and plugins.
Minimize plugins — Only keep the plugins you actually use.
Use quality hosting — A good hosting provider makes a significant difference in performance.
Set featured images — Always set a featured image for posts to ensure proper display in the post layout and when sharing on social media.
