It’s a pain maintaining 2 identical installations, so the demo for the dark theme version is no longer online. Check the Documentation page on the Light Demo to see screenshots of the Dark theme version instead.

To import all the demo content use the xml file included in the /import folder of the theme(s)
If you already purchased Octofirst version 1

Please note that the contact form has been upgraded, it no longer needs the send_email.php file. The form processing is done in-page now.

Make a backup of your files first, before installing the new theme.

Your admin panel options will be resetted automatically once the new theme is in place, you will have to re-enter them. Luckily, this will take minutes at most.

If you used the XML import file, you need to go to Settings > Reading and set Home as the static frontpage.

If you did not use the import file, you need to create a page, assign it the Home template, go to Settings > Reading and set it as the static frontpage.

Also, please note that the translations are not perfect, so you can easily correct the pre-made german and italian localizations by using the po source files included.
