Themes

A WordPress theme controls how your site looks and how content is laid out on the front end. Only one theme can be active at a time. The Themes page in WP Toolkit lets you install themes from WordPress.org, switch the active theme, and update or remove themes you no longer need.

Accessing Themes​

Step 1: Log in to your ServerAvatar account.

Step 2: Open the Server Dashboard → Applications → select your WordPress application.

Step 3: In the application panel sidebar, open WP Toolkit → Themes.
