This video goes over how to change the “Downloads” label and slug to “Themes” throughout the plugin and theme. The labels are what you see in the WordPress dashboard and the slug is the URL.
This will allow us to navigate to http://yoursite.com/themes instead of http://yoursite.com/downloads which is also nice!
In this tutorial series we are going to build a WordPress store that sells digital downloads. In our case it will be WordPress themes. To do this, we are going to integrate a plugin called Easy Digital Downloads into a WordPress theme.
This is the start of the HTML to WordPress theme tutorial series! I hope you are as excited as I am about this series. You will be able to download a beautiful Bootstrap HTML/CSS template that we are going to convert into a premium WordPress theme.
In this series we will start with the Base Theme from Series One (so be sure you have completed that series) and go step-by-step to integrate the HTML into a WordPress theme.
Watch the video below to see the template you will be converting into a WordPress theme.
If you like using Bootstrap and WordPress as much as I do, you should now have the perfect base WordPress theme to start any project moving forward. At this point, our WordPress theme has all the Bootstrap components and features, several custom page templates, styled comments, Font Awesome, custom functions, and much more.
In the following video, I go over how you can use this base theme for your WordPress projects and how you can quickly add a custom homepage to the theme.
Short video that goes over how to install your Underscores.me starter theme into your local wp-content/themes directory. We then go to WPTest.io and download an XML file that will upload all kinds of test content into your local development environment. You should now have your blank starter theme with all the WPTest.io filler content ready to go.
Now it is time to start integrating Bootstrap within the starter WordPress theme and start creating your premium theme!
