Note :

• Once you install the theme, activate first all the required plugins to work.
• Make at least 4 posts in the “Featured” category section for the Featured Content to work.
• Thumbnails’ URL should be within the installed WordPress directory for the thumbnail automatic resizer to work.
• Set the number of blog pages to activate the built in pagination via Settings > Reading Settings > Blog pages show at most.
