Install or add a new website theme

Choosing a theme for your Knorish site is an exciting step towards creating a professional and visually appealing online brand. All Knorish website themes are mobile responsive, fast loading, and come with standard pages like home, about us, course and contact pages. In this article, we will cover how to explore, install, and manage themes, check published pages, and important considerations for using themes.

    Exploring and Installing a Theme

    Exploring and installing a theme on Knorish is a straightforward process that allows you to find and apply the best design for your site.

    Here's how to preview and install a website theme on your knorish account

    • Login to your Knorish account
    • Access Dashboard< Website Builder< Themes 
    • Click on Preview to see how each theme looks
    • When you find a theme you like, click on Install
    • Your theme will be installed on your site and the sample pages published

    How to Check Which Pages are Published and Live

    It's essential to know which of your pages are live in your theme and accessible to your audience.

    Here’s how you can check and manage published pages:

    • Access Dashboard< Website Builder< Pages
    • Under the Published column, all pages that state Yes are published and live
    • Click on Settings to edit the page URL, title, description, and keyword etc.
    • Click on Edit to modify the page design using the Page Builder

    Changing Themes

    You can only have one theme active at a time. Every time a new theme is installed, all existing pages are unpublished, and the new theme's pages are published. You can edit or delete any of these pages under ‘Pages’ in the Website Builder. If you need the old pages, you will need to publish them again. Keep in mind that changing themes will not carry over content and customizations from one theme to another.

    Adding a Menu and Updating Your Site Content

    Once a theme is installed, you can customize your site further by adding a menu and updating your content. This includes making changes such as updating text, changing images, and more to fit your brand's needs.

    To learn more about how to customize your menu and update your site content, refer to the detailed help article: How to add a menu or design a page using the new Page Builder? 

    Important Considerations:

    • It's not recommended to change the theme after designing your website. Installing a new theme will unpublish all current pages and remove any custom CSS and JS codes you've added.
    • Only one theme can be active on your site at a time. If multiple themes are installed, only the latest installed theme will remain published, and all other theme pages will be unpublished.
    • To create new pages, use landing page templates and the page builder to create new pages that may look completely different from your site. Learn more here: Design or create a page using the new Page Builder.
