Theme Requirements
To use this theme you must be running at least WordPress 3.9, PHP5, mysql 5 or higher. If you use a hosting service with limited resources (e.g. GoDaddy!), you may experience issues with the "one-click" demo data installation.
We recommend that you contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your server PHP configuration limits are as follows:
- max_execution_time 60
- memory_limit 128M
- post_max_size 32M
- upload_max_filesize 32M
If you are running unmanaged dedicated server or VPS, you should check your php.ini file. Alternatively, you can edit .htaccess file in the root of your website and add the following values:
- php_value max_execution_time 60
- php_value memory_limit 128M
- php_value post_max_size 32M
