Theme Demo Import

Pesto with a one-click demo importer. So setting up your site to look and function just like the demo has never been easier.

Importing the Demo Content

Before running the importer, make sure that you have installed and activated the required and recommended plugins. You will see a message at the top of your dashboard if you have not yet done so.

  1. Go to Appearance  →  Theme Setup
  2. Click the Import button under the Demo you want to import.
  3. Be patient and wait for the import process to complete. It can take up to 3-5 minutes.
install demo
MANAGE EMAILS

Make sure to only run the Demo Importer one time. Running it multiple times will result in duplicate content.

How long should it take?

The demo import should take around 3-5 minutes to complete. There are a lot of big and beautiful images and sliders, so moving that much content can take some time. If you find that the import is taking much longer than 5-7 minutes, there’s probably a problem, and you can navigate away from the import page.

Before running the demo import again, you should reset the database. We recommend the WordPress Reset plugin.

Install Child Theme  →  Install Plugins  →  Import Content Data  →  All Done. Have fun!
