About FameThemes Codilight WordPress Theme 2.0.4
Codilight is a WordPress theme from FameThemes designed for content writers and bloggers. The description calls its design minimalist, professional and elegant. The homepage shows recent posts in a grid with a distinctive minimal style, so it suits sites where articles come first.
The file on record is version 2.0.4, from May 2018. The listing doesn't mention page templates, demos or plugin requirements, so check the documentation in the package. Because it dates from 2018, test it on a staging site with your current WordPress and PHP before going live.

Getting started: using FameThemes Codilight WordPress Theme 2.0.4
- Install on a staging site. Upload and activate the theme on a copy of your site.

- Customise the look. Open Appearance, Customize to set your logo, colours and menus.
- Check posts and images. Publish a few posts with featured images and see how the grid displays them.
Common problems and fixes
Grid thumbnails look cropped or inconsistent
- Why it happens
- Posts have no featured image, or old images were made at different sizes.
- How to fix it
- Set a featured image on each post, then regenerate thumbnails with an image regeneration plugin.
“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.
