Meipaly is a powerful Digital Services Agency WordPress Responsive Theme. It is highly suitable theme for companies that offer Web Design, Digital Marketing, SEO Services and all other internet marketing and services related agencies. Its' huge elements give you chance to build any kind of corporate web site also.
First of all if you are all new to WordPress, I would recommend to learn a little bit about it before you get started. Here are some nice Resources on how to get started with WordPress.
Before we start talking about theme installation we should know some fact about wp themes. There in Meipaly package two theme is available. Parent and Child. So we should know about parent and child theme first.
A WordPress child theme takes the functionality of another theme, named parent theme. It gives you the possibility to customize an existing theme. Instead of modifying the theme files directly, you can activate the child theme and work within it. All customizations are stored in the child theme and anything in the child takes priority over the parent. So if the same file exist in both child and parent, the file from the child will control that aspect of the theme. Working with child themes, your customizations are safeguarded from future upgrades because you only upgrade the parent theme, which you never edit, while the customizations are protected in your child theme which you don’t upgrade.
Why use Child Theme?
Safe Updates. You can easily modify your website using child themes without ever changing the parent theme. When a new version of the parent theme appears, you can safely update it as all your modifications are saved in the child theme. Easy to Extend. A child theme has a great flexibility. It does not require writing a lot of code. You can modify only those template files and functions that you need.

Its bit complicated process. We tried to make it easier. First you need to understand how it's work. Our one page system work based on "Menu", "Front Page Template" & Section ( Pages ).
First we need to create a page with any name. We created one with the name "Front Page". Make sure you selecte "Front Page" page template from Template dropdown. Once you select "Front Page" template and save the page you will see that there was no Editor for this page. Don't worry about it.
Second : we need to create a secion for our home page. As you know, in one page when you click on menu item pages are not loded. Its scroll down to that perticular secion. So we are going to create our first section called "Home". And we are going to show Rev slider on that Home Section. By the way
Pages -> Add New . Insert Page title "Home". Dont need to select any Page Attributes ( Parent, Templates, Order etc) and Dont need to upload any Featured Image. Scroll down to bottom and find "Block Settings" tab.
This is our key settings for one page secion.
"Is Secion?" If you want to this Page make a secion of your "Front Page" then turn it to "Yes". For your Home page please turn it to Yes.
"Disable From Menu?". If you want to Disable this Page name from Menu then turn it to "Yes". For your Home Page please turn it to No.
Now Navigate Apperance -> Menu. Create a menu and set it as Primary menu and add this home page to your menu. Save the menu. Refresh the site. follow the preocess for other sections.
