About Multinews – Multi-purpose WordPress News,Magazine 2.6.5

Multinews is a multi-purpose WordPress theme for news and magazine sites. It was sold on ThemeForest, and the store lists it under multi-purpose, premium theme and business service categories. The name and title say it is meant to run article-heavy sites, while the multi-purpose tag suggests it can stretch to other uses.

The listing gives no list of layouts, header styles, demos or bundled plugins. Open the documentation in the package first to see what comes with it. Premium news themes of this kind often ship with a demo importer and companion plugins, which you may be asked to install after activating the theme.

The file on record is version 2.6.5 and dates from March 2019. Test it with your current WordPress and PHP on a staging site before launching, since themes from that period can throw warnings on recent releases.

Requirements

  • WordPress
  • Any plugins the theme's required-plugins notice asks for

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Look elsewhere if

  • Anyone who needs the demo list or builder details spelled out before buying, which the listing doesn't give

How to install Multinews – Multi-purpose WordPress News,Magazine 2.6.5

  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

  • After activating, look for a required or recommended plugins notice and install what it asks for before importing any demo. The listing doesn't name those plugins.

Getting started: using Multinews – Multi-purpose WordPress News,Magazine 2.6.5

  1. Install and activate the theme. Upload the zip in Appearance, Themes, activate it, and install the plugins it recommends.
  2. Read the documentation. Find out which demos, header styles and homepage builders the package includes.
  3. Import a demo or build the home page. If a demo is included, import it on a staging site to see the intended layout, then replace the content.
  4. Set up menus and categories. Create your category structure and menus, then assign them to the theme's menu locations.
  5. Test speed and mobile. Check the home page, a post and an archive on a phone, and test page speed before going live.

Common problems and fixes

Homepage blocks stay empty after activation
Why it happens
The home page is built from theme modules or a companion plugin that isn't installed, or no posts exist in the chosen categories.
How to fix it
Install the required plugins, publish posts with featured images, then re-select the categories in the module settings.
“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.
