What to do after purchase?

1. Check theme inside out

After extracting .zip file, check every file and folder to know more about theme inside out. Confused with any file/folder usage? Check above directory structure to clear your doubts. We recommended reading the whole documentation for better understanding of theme. Yes, it will take up to 30 mins but it will be worth reading.

2. Install local environment for customization (Optional but highly recommended)

Go to Gulp section and follow the steps. You can skip this step if you prefer to work with Eduport as a static source without Gulp and Sass.

3. Branding

After installation and running gulp, change your brand colors buy following Color scheme section instructions. Change your brand logo by following Logo settings section

4. Customization

Now you can start customizing your website as per your need.

5. Delete unnecessary file and folder to upload on live server

After completing your website, you must need to delete unnecessary file and folder to reduce website size. Please check below folders/files usage to run your website:

  • assets/css: You must need style.css (or style-rtl.css for RTL version). If you have not used color.css file then you can remove it.
  • assets/images: You can remove all unnecessary files from this folder.
  • assets/js: Don't delete this folder/file.
  • assets/scss: If you don't want sourcemap you can remove SCSS folder. You must remove source map comment from the end of the style.css (or style-rtl.css for RTL version) file to avoid warning on console log.
  • assets/vendor: Keep only those vendor folders that you have used in your website.
  • node_modules: You only need this folder for local server. Don't upload it to live server.
  • docs: You don't need docs folder for your live website.
