Newbie here: How come I only have Sample Page? This is my 2nd install of Platform Pro

Recommended Posts

On my initial install I had other pages (Home2, Blog, Features, etc) where I also installed the Base theme. I messed up or got confused (on some other issues) that I decided to uninstall from my Word Press. After a reinstall (and hit yes on overwrite), it still says theme installation failed coz it already exists. So I tried setting my front page display under Settings- Reading - I only found "Sample Page" as my choice. I was looking for Home2 and other Posts (Features, Sections, etc). And on making my Menus and I only Sample Page to add and nothing on Categories either. I understand I need to create my Pages and Posts but I was looking for the posts/pages that it came with Platform Pro as something I'd like to start with. I'd appreciate your help. I'd like to see that Features page again on my Home page. My site has nothing in here yet. http://www.row77.com Rowena

I like to think that I'm not using the Child Them. How do I know if I'm using the Child theme? If not, how do I incorporate that to my site? Thanks a bunch!

I meant I'd like to use the Base theme. Is there a way to find out if I'm using the child theme other than the Platform Pro main theme?

1) You need to download the Base theme from your LaunchPad account at: http://pagelines.com/launchpad 2) The theme is in a zip file, so you'll need to unzip the file once it's downloaded to your computer. 3) Once unzipped, you can install the theme and activate it via Appearance > Themes (this is where you can tell which theme you're using - the theme displayed at the top along with its description is the one that's displayed). A tutorial for installing PlatformPro + PlatformBase is here: http://www.pagelines.com/docs/theme-installation.

Please read the docs before posting. Please do not private message me unless I ask you to.

Thanks so much. I just went to Appearance-Themes and activated the Base theme.
