To install this theme you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. Below are some useful links regarding WordPress information.
PLEASE NOTE! The theme is designed for free WordPress version downloaded at WordPress.org. We do not guarantee the theme full compatibility with installations on Wordpress.com due to limitations in website control and theme customization.
To use this theme you must be running at least WordPress 4.9, PHP 5.6, mysql 5 or higher. If you use a hosting service with limited resources (e.g. GoDaddy!), you may experience issues with the "one-click" demo data installation.
We recommend that you contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your server PHP configuration limits are as follows:
max_execution_time 500
memory_limit 128M
post_max_size 32M
upload_max_filesize 32M
max_input_vars 2000
If you are running unmanaged dedicated server or VPS,
you should check your php.ini
file. Alternatively, you can edit .htaccess
file in the root of your website and add the following values:
php_value max_execution_time 600
php_value memory_limit 128M
php_value post_max_size 32M
php_value upload_max_filesize 32M
Setting these values will ensure you will not get error messages during the installation. To safeguard your website, please use secure passwords and the latest version of WordPress and plug-ins.
Here is the list of web hosting service providers we recommend:
Before installing the theme, please make sure you unpacked the archive and extracted the theme files. Some of the folders names may slightly vary. Treat the screenshot below as an example only.
The main package contains archives with the main theme, child theme and documentation.
If you try to install the wrong files, you will get the missing styles.css error. This is the most common error that means you are trying to install an incorrect package.
In order to install the theme, you need to have a working version of WordPress installed on your server first. Check out this guide for detailed information on how to install WordPress. We also highly recommend updating your WordPress to the latest stable version.

All existing demo pages and layouts are built using Elementor Page Builder and should be customized using Elementor Page Builder only.
PLEASE NOTE! It is possible to switch between the page builders. Please use One page builder for creating/customizing One particular page/post/layout.
If you want to make changes to the theme's files and functions, we recommend installing a child theme. This ensures that your theme customizations stay in place after the theme update. If you are not planning to change the core theme files, you are free to skip this chapter.
IMPORTANT! Install the child theme before importing the demo data. Otherwise, all of your theme options will be reset.
A child theme is installed the same way you install a parent theme. Locate the stmichael-child.zip
file in the theme package and upload it via the WordPress admin panel. Alternatively, you can unzip it and upload via FTP (see main theme installation chapter).
Your child theme has its own functions.php
file. Use it to copy modified functions from the parent theme's functions.php
, or register new functions.
This step is required if you received the notification that a new version of the theme is available. You can see this information in Change log section at the bottom of the item's details page.
