Importing content

From the dashboard go to Appearance » Import Demo Data and click on the Import Demo Data button.

When importing the data, note the following details:

Header and Footer will be imported as long as you have not yet configured them.

Posts, pages, images, widgets, menus and other theme settings will get imported and set as the homepage and posts page.

No existing posts, pages, categories, images, custom post types or any other data will be deleted or modified.

To confirm the import, click Continue & Import at the bottom of the page.

If an error occurs during the import, it is usually because your server does not meet the minimum requirements.

The time taken to complete the import will depend on the speed of your internet connection. On average it takes 5 to 10 minutes, be patient and do not refresh the page during import.

Choosing your home page and the posts page

After a successful demo import, Demo 1 will be set as your home page, but you can change that easily. From the Dashboard go to Settings » Reading and select the pages of your choice in “Your homepage displays”.
