2. Upload size limit

If you get this message when you install our theme on localhost, here is a solution for you:

INSTALL DEMO DATA


  • Import Manual Demo Content: If you choose to import manually some data from other websites, usually you have to import an XML file (called Sample Data and included in our package)
  • Please Note These Important Items about The Demo Content

    Images - Our demo images are not included because they are licensed stock items that are not allowed to be shared. So, they will be modified by placeholders, you need to contact authors to get permission in case you want to use them in your commercial or non-commercial projects.

    This is the second way for you to import our demo content. Continue reading below to learn how to manually import demo content.

    Check The Following Plugins Before Import

    • Visual Composer: The most popular page builder for WordPress

    • Advanced Custom Fields Pro: A graphic user interface layer for custom fields

    • K shortcodes: A plugin which includes all shortcodes for theme which helps you build your own pages

    Where To Find Demo Files

    But before moving straight to the point, there are some notes worth checking:

    • Make sure you have installed all recommended plugins before importing sample data.
    • In /Sample Data/ folder of our package, you can find 01 .xlm file which are:
      1. Gamerpro.wordpress.xml All Data - sample demo data of some pages from our demo.
      2. The import process may take several minutes due to large data and your server capacity. If your server setting "Max Execution Time" is too low, increase it (as your hosting provider). Please do not close the browser until it finishes. If it fails, you can run this process again until seeing the "Success Message".
        Demo Images are not installed due to some copyrighted licenses
      3. If you have to run the process more than once, menu items may be duplicated. Just go to Appearance > Menus and edit/delete Menu items
      4. Feature images are not imported (We use licensed photos on our demo page). Instead you will see placeholder images.

    How To Import XML Files

    To install sample data, please following these steps below:

    • Step 0 - Make sure you have installed Gamerpro theme and all required & recommended plugins

    • Step 1 - Go to Tools >>> Import, then click to "Install now" in WordPress and wait until installation is finished

    • Step 2 - After having been completely installed, you continue to click on Run Importer
    • Step 3 - Go ahead and click to "Choose File" button and import Gamerpro-wordpress-import.xml file. Don't cancel the importing process
    • Step 4 - When you see the message "All done. Have fun!", you will know that the import process is done. Note: you may need to re-import the second time if the data is large.

    • And now you finished!

    • Step 5 - Done, then you have to set Homepage, Menu, Widgets for your site

    NOTE: You can get the .xml file by going to Tools >> Export >> Choose file and click "Download Export File". In the screenshot above, we have exported all content demo data. Then we got the file named "content-export.xml"
