Introduction:

All you have to do is follow the steps we're going to tell you and you'll have the theme installed just the way you want it.
How to start working:
The first thing you should do is visit your website. When you have created your website, it will have a default theme, which means it will be a weird one that may not work for you.
You have to go to the main setup of your WordPress, i.e. the dashboard, from where you can do all the settings of the website.
To access your dashboard, you must first log in with the password and user ID you entered when creating your website.
You have to keep your website dashboard open as well.
How to use the free theme:
First of all, we will talk about how to use the free themes that WordPress has given us. For this, you will see some options on the elevator side. You have to select their appearance from them. As soon as you click on it, you will get some more options, among them there is an option for a theme that you have to click on.
As soon as you click on the theme, a new window will open in front of you where you will see the theme at the top that will be installed on your website by WordPress.
If you want to get more free new themes, you will see an option on the top, add a new theme, you have to click on it, and all the free themes will be opened in front of you. You can fully customize them, which are in thousands, and you also get complete control.
Here you will find an amazing variety of themes, even if you don't buy it yourself, you can install these themes and make your website look professional.
You get many more options here like if you want to get the latest theme then you can also search for that, filter, and select any theme of your choice means any category theme you want to get. All categories will be opened in front of you.
For example, we go to the Latest Themes and select any good theme from there. Whatever theme you want to install, the process is the same. You have to click on Install when you get the option.
Your theme installation will start As soon as your theme is installed, there will be an option to activate until you activate your theme will not go live on your website.
So you have to activate your theme by clicking on the activate option, now your theme will be installed completely, now if you go to refresh your website, the theme you have installed will be installed. You will see.
But you will not see the same theme as you saw in the preview, when you customize it, your theme will look the same as it was in the preview.
When you have activated your theme then you will be redirected to a new window where you will get an option of Starter Templates you have to open it a new window will open in front of you.

You have to select it, here a new window will open in front of you, now you will choose any template from here, and it will be visible in front of you, here you can choose whatever style you like can choose.
Whatever style you choose from here, your website will look exactly the same.
