Questions & Troubleshooting

Demo Import Fails with the message: "Oops, something has gone wrong!"

If this message is appearing, most likely, the theme is not compatible with your web host. Please contact your web host to increase your PHP max_execution_time (or any other web server timeouts to at least 900 secs) and memory_limit (to at least 196M) temporarily, so the web host support should set up the proper parameters for you.

Demo Content Duplicated

The import of demo content can take several minutes depending on your server speed. Please note: each time the button is clicked, it imports the content, Once it’s clicked twice, it may import everything two times. There are two methods to get rid of duplicate content:

1. WP Reset Plugin – This plugin is the fastest way to get rid of the content. However, it will also remove all content from your database and leave the default theme activated. It does not remove plugins, but may deactivate them and remove all pages, posts, menus, sliders, widget data, Theme Options, etc. Basically, it removes all the imported content from our theme. Please proceed with it only if you are able to start over.

2. Manual Removal – This method will take longer and simply involves the manual removal duplicate items. For example, navigate to the Appearance > Menu and delete the duplicate items one by one. Do the same with pages, post, sliders, etc.
