Import Demo

With the Simetria theme, you have the option to either start creating your site from scratch, or choosing to import one of the included demo sites to use as a starting point, and then modifying it to suit your needs. In this section we will explain how to do the latter.

Warning

Simetria comes with a one-click import module. To import one of the included demo sites, please follow these steps:

Make sure you've first installed all recommended and required plugins.

1. Login to your WordPress admin panel
2. Navigate to Appearance > Import Demo Data
3. Click Import Demo Data and wait until importing demo is finished

What if the import fails or stalls?

If the import stalls and fails to respond after a few minutes You are suffering from PHP configuration limits that are set too low to complete the process. You should contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

• max_execution_time 600
• memory_limit 128M
• post_max_size 32M
• upload_max_filesize 32M

You can verify your PHP configuration limits by installing a simple plugin found here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-php-info. And you can also check your PHP error logs to see the exact error being returned.
