About Elegant Themes Bold WordPress Theme 6.5.12

This is the Bold theme from Elegant Themes, not a theme by BoldThemes, which is a different company. The store files it under premium theme and blog news magazine. The file on record is version 6.5.12 and dates from August 2017. The legacy text calls it a Basic theme, so the listing is inconsistent about the exact name.

The listing has no description of the layout, options or demos. Because the file is old, test it with your current WordPress and PHP on a staging site before using it live. The documentation in the package, or the theme's options page after activation, is the place to see what it actually offers.

Requirements

WordPress

Key features

How to install Elegant Themes Bold WordPress Theme 6.5.12

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Find the installable theme zip
Theme packages often bundle the theme, a child theme, plugins and docs. The installable theme is the zip that has style.css at its top level.
3
Upload it to WordPress
Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme → Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.
4
Install the recommended plugins
Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.

Getting started: using Elegant Themes Bold WordPress Theme 6.5.12

Set menus and homepage. Create menus and choose your front page.
Add posts. Publish some posts to see how the blog layout looks.

Common problems and fixes

“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

Why it happens: The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
How to fix it: Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.

Demo import stops part-way or times out

Why it happens: The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
How to fix it: Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.

Pages look broken right after activating

Why it happens: The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
How to fix it: Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.
