1. Installing the Theme


After downloading the zipped file, unzip it and put the “MMT2” folder under your wp-content/themes directory. Now open up the plugins folder and copy everything you see there to the plugins folder of your wordpress installation and activate them right after.

4. Setting up the post thumbnail


Nothing complicated, when ever you write a post, scroll down the page and you’ll find a section called Custom Field as shown in the image below. Click on the Enter New link you see there, put the word articleimg in the Name field and the URL to your image in the Value field and then click on the button that says Add Custom Field. You won’t have to do it over and over whenever you write a new post, after the first time, the articleimg field will show up automatically, all you have to do is put in the image URL and click on the Add Custom Field button. I recommend you use a 597by 270px image every time you write a post to ensure the featured content gallery is shown properly.

5. Setting up the logo


Open up the .psd file from the PSD folder inside the the package. Once you have finished editing the logo, save it as .JPG format with the name “top1.jpg” and upload it to the image directory.
