Notice: 

This theme requires Elementor Pro. If you don't have Elementor Pro, please download it here. You can also use one of the many Elementor Pro GPL Free versions. We have tested the theme with one of the most popular ones - ProElements and the theme is 100% compatible with it. 




Recommended plugins: Please note that the theme doesn't depend on the plugins in this list to function correctly. Nor does the demo content importer. Install them only if you are going to use them. Otherwise, they may impact the site's performance or burden your hosting unnecessarily.

Step 9 - Import Demo Content


Now, you can complete the Demo Content Import. 


We recommend using the Demo Content Import Feature.

This is a great feature that helps novice WordPress users and veterans alike. This feature makes the necessary settings/configurations and installs demo content in the WordPress theme - categories, pages, posts, and widgets.

Your VamTam theme will look exactly like the one you see on our live preview. It doesn't matter if you know WordPress inside out or have seen it for the first time; it's always easier to modify posts, categories, pages, and widgets that are already there rather than creating them from scratch. Moreover, it is easier to understand how your new VamTam theme works.


Our Demo Content Import is a tremendous feature that will save you a lot of frustration and headache at a press of a button. Try it out. We promise you won't be disappointed.


Go back to VamTam > Import Demo Content > and click the Import button:




You are advised to use this importer only on new WordPress sites. You can also check this article: Can I import the demo content on an existing installation?


Images will be downloaded in the background after the main import is complete. Depending on your server, this may take several minutes. In the meantime, you may notice that some images are not visible.




Hooray! The theme's been set up successfully! Now, you can start customizing its content. You're advised to check the setup guide for your theme here: Setup Guide Vamtam Elementor Theme.





Step 10 - Theme Documentation

You can locate all the theme's documentation on the "Support and Documentation" tab:
