Quick Start Guide

  1. Upload and activate the theme via Appearance → Themes.
  2. Set up your menus under Appearance → Menus.
  3. Customize the theme via Appearance → Customize → Theme Options.

Theme Installation

After purchasing the GridView PRO WordPress Theme, you'll receive a download link via email. Check your email inbox (or spam folder) for the product delivery email. Click the provided download link to download the theme's .zip file to your computer. Follow one of a method given below to install the theme on your website.

Upgrading from the Free GridView Theme?

GridView PRO is a separate theme. Whether or not you're currently using the free GridView theme, you need to install GridView PRO using one of the methods below.

If you're upgrading from the free version, most of your existing WordPress Customizer settings will remain in place. So you don't need to reconfigure everything from scratch. However, you will need to reupload a few images and reapply specific color settings.

After activating GridView PRO, go to Appearance → Customize and reupload the following:

  • Site Logo
  • Site Icon (favicon)
  • Header Image
  • Background Image

If you changed below color options in the free version, reapply them in Appearance → Customize → Theme Options → Colors:

  • Header Text Color
  • Background Color

Tip: You can install PRO without deleting the free theme. Use Live Preview to confirm your layout, then click Activate & Publish.

Method 1: Install Using the WordPress Dashboard (Easiest and Fastest)

This is the easiest and fastest method to install this WordPress theme.

  1. Go to "WordPress Dashboard" → "Appearance" → "Themes" and click on "Add New" button.
  2. Click on "Upload Theme" button and choose the zip file you have downloaded.
  3. Click on "Install Now" button.
  4. Activate the theme.
  5. Now go to "Appearance" → "Customize" to configure theme options.

Method 2: Install using cPanel File Manager

In some cases, you may not be able to install a WordPress theme through the WordPress dashboard—especially if the theme's ZIP file exceeds the maximum upload size limit. When this happens, you can install the theme using cPanel's File Manager, which is often simpler than using FTP. Follow the steps below to install your theme via the File Manager in cPanel.

  1. Log in to your cPanel account. Your cPanel URL will be https://yourdomain.com/cpanel or a similar URL.
  2. Click on the "File Manager" icon. It's usually under the "Files" section.
  3. You are now in the "File Manager". Open the public_html folder, which is your website's root directory.
  4. Locate the wp-content folder inside "public_html," then open the themes folder inside of it.
  5. In the File Manager interface, click the "Upload" button and choose the theme's .zip file from your local drive.
  6. After it has been uploaded, right-click the .zip file and choose "Extract" or "Unzip".
  7. You can now delete the uploaded .zip file, but it's optional.
  8. Log in to your WordPress dashboard through your web browser.
  9. Go to Appearance → Themes. Now you will see the newly extracted theme.
  10. Make it your active theme by clicking the "Activate" button next to it.

Note: If your hosting provider doesn't offer cPanel, look for a File Manager option in your hosting dashboard (like DirectAdmin, Plesk, or CyberPanel). The process is usually very similar—just find the wp-content/themes folder and upload/extract the theme ZIP file there.

Method 3: Install using FTP

Installing a WordPress theme via FTP is straightforward, though it involves a few more steps compared to using the built-in theme uploader. Here's how to install a WordPress theme using FTP:

  1. Unzip the theme's .zip file you have downloaded.
  2. Connect to your hosting account using an FTP client such as "FileZilla" or "Core FTP".
  3. Navigate to the /wp-content/themes folder in the "Remote site" section.
  4. In the "Local site" section, locate the unzipped theme folder.
  5. Drag and drop the unzipped theme folder from the "Local site" section to the "Remote site" section.
  6. Be patient and let the transfer finish.
  7. Once the transfer is complete, log in to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to Appearance > Themes.
  8. Find the theme you just uploaded and click Activate.

  • "The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini." - If you get this error when following the "Method 1", follow this tutorial: https://themesdna.com/blog/increase-maximum-file-upload-size-wordpress/
  • My menus disappeared or look different. Go to Appearance → Menus → Manage Locations and reassign your menus to the correct locations.

  • Enable Caching: Use WP Super Cache or WP Rocket.
  • Use a CDN: Cloudflare or BunnyCDN for faster global delivery.
  • Minify CSS & JavaScript: Use Autoptimize.
  • Optimize Fonts: Load Google Fonts asynchronously or host them locally.
  • Avoid Unnecessary Plugins: Only install essential plugins.
  • Set SEO Titles & Meta Descriptions: Use Yoast SEO or Rank Math.

  • Add Structured Data: Enhance search visibility with schema markup.

Translation & RTL

GridView PRO 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 gridview-pro.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:

After translating, save your files as:

  • gridview-pro-[language_code].po
  • gridview-pro-[language_code].mo

Place them inside the /languages folder in the theme.

↔️ RTL Language Support

GridView PRO 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.
