THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING OUR THEME!

Here are some basics on installing, configuring and customizing the Venustheme,

BEFORE WE GO

The theme and the sample data is provided "as is". Customizing code and other design related issues can be done as freelance work on a $50-100$ hourly rate only with Paypal and/or Skrill, if Venustheme's available. If you are new to Magento, please understand I cannot fix your site for free. Venustheme would love to help everyone but there is no time. I suggest reading documentation available online regarding using Magento, server requirements, etc.

If you like this theme please rate it.

Have a wonderful rest of your day!

The Quickstart Package consists on a complete Magneto! + Template + Various Extensions + Sample Content, excellent for beginner users to explore back-end settings and sample content. Installing the Quickstart is just like installing Magento!, but you will have the full demo of the theme on your server. Once your environment is ready, follow this quick guide:

Step 1: Upload a Quickstart

You must upload package ves_bestmart_quickstart.zip on your hosting account through your cPanel -> File Manager or using an FTP client.

In case you want Quickstart installation to be primary for your domain (i.e. to run from http://yoursite.com), you need to extract the content of the installation package in the public_html folder. On the other hand, if you want it to be in a subfolder like http://yoursite.com/store/ you need to extract the content to public_html/store/.

Once you upload the package, you can extract it through your cPanel -> File Manager.

Step 2: Create a MySQL database

Create a MySQL database and assign a user to it through cPanel -> MySQL Databases. Remember the database details, since you will need them during the Quickstart installation.

Step 3: Install Quickstart

Install step by step as magento:

In our example we will install Magento in the public_html/store folder. Once the package is uploaded and extracted and you have a MySQL database, navigate to http://yoursite.com/store:

Click on the check box next to "I agree to the above terms and conditions" and click on the Continue button. Now, choose the preferred Time Zone, Locale and Currency and press the Continue button.

Next, enter the database details: Database Name, User Name and User Password. You can leave the other options intact. Make sure that you place a check on the "Skip Base URL validation before next step" option. Then, click the Continue button to proceed.

At this point you should enter the personal information and the admin login details which you want to use. You can leave the Encryption Key field empty and the script will generate one for you. Once more, click the Continue button.

Finally, Write down your encryption key; it will be used by Magento to encrypt passwords, credit cards and other confidential information.

Well Done! Your Quickstart installation was successfully completed. Now you can navigate to its Frontend or Backend.
