About HappyThemes NewsNow Pro 1.7

NewsNow Pro is made by HappyThemes. The product type in the store says plugin, but its categories are WordPress Premium Themes and Blog News Magazine, and the name follows HappyThemes' other Pro themes, so treat it as a news and magazine theme and check the package.

The listing gives no feature list, demos or requirements. The file on record is version 1.7 from October 2019. Read the documentation in the package first, and check whether the theme needs a parent framework installed. Test it with your current WordPress and PHP versions on a staging site.

How to install HappyThemes NewsNow Pro 1.7

  1. 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. 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. 3

    Upload it to WordPress

    Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme → Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.

  4. 4

    Install the recommended plugins

    Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.

Notes for this product

  • The listing doesn't say whether the theme needs a parent theme or framework. Check the documentation in the package before activating.

Getting started: using HappyThemes NewsNow Pro 1.7

  1. Check what is in the package. Open the download and confirm whether it holds a theme folder, then read the documentation.
  2. Install any required parent or plugins. If the documentation names a parent theme or companion plugins, install them first.
  3. Activate and set up the home page. Activate the theme and choose the home page layout in the theme options or Customizer.
  4. Add categories, posts and menus. Publish a few posts, build the menu and check archive and single post pages.

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.
