Welcome to Feminine Business theme’s documentation page!
This documentation talks about how you can install the theme on your WordPress site, how to customize the theme to suit your needs, and a couple of other things that you’ll need to know to get going.

Installing The Theme
Installing the theme is quite straightforward.

That’s pretty much it! Reload your website to see the gorgeous theme in action!

Installing Recommended Plugins
Feminine Business Theme requires some essential plugins to be installed for some components to work: BlossomThemes Email Newsletter for the Newsletter Section, Contact Form 7 for contact forms, One Click Demo Import for importing Demo and WooCommerce for creating shop for your business.

Configuring The Theme
Now that you have the theme successfully installed, time to tweak the customization settings to make it your own!
As with all the other themes from GLThemes, Feminine Business theme comes with tons of customization features to truly give you full control over the look of your website.
We’ll be exploring various customization options available in the theme’s customizer in this section.

Inside Site Identity, you can add a logo via the Select Logo option, change your site’s title in the Site Title option, change the tagline in the Tagline option, and add a site icon in the Select Site Icon option.

You’ll be able to see the live preview as you edit the options.

Featured Section
This section is where you can add summary of what your business delivers to your customers. Generally this is where you can add snippet of About Us page.


Customization Options:
- Section Title, Subtitle, Description and View Button Options: This is where you can change the title, subtitle and description and description for the About Us section, which will be reflected in the banner. Moreover, you can add a link and a text to the “View More” button to direct your visitors to a relevant link.

CTA (Call-To-Action) Section
CTA section allows you to include important links and details for your visitors and prompt action from them. This, in turn, helps generate and convert more leads.

Customization Options:
- Section Title, Subtitle, Background Image, and Button Options: Here you can change or set the section’s title and subtitle, upload a background image (the default blue background is used if you don’t upload one), and edit the CTA button’s label and link.

This is what a typical CTA Section looks like:

Shop Section
If you have products or services to showcase to your prospective customers, you can setup a shop from Customizer > Front Page Settings > Shop Section. Here you can customize Title, Short Description and number of products you want to showcase in the homepage. You can select the featured product from the list to attract more visitors to your website.


Blog Posts Section
A section where your blog posts are displayed.

Customization Settings:

And this is what the section looks like, after making all the necessary changes.

Instagram Section
This is another section where you can showcase your Instagram posts for your prospective clients. For this you’ll need to install Smash Balloon Social Photo Feed plugin and insert the short code generated via the plugin.


This is how your Instagram section looks like after configuring the setup.

General Settings
General Settings comprises settings that allow you to tweak several aspects of the Top Bar, Header, edit SEO Settings for your website, Post-Page settings, Performance tweaks alongside other Miscellaneous settings.
We’ll go through each setting and sub-settings inside the General Settings of the customizer and explain what the setting does, how it impacts your website, and where you can see the changes take place.

TopBar Settings
TopBar Settings is where you can change the settings of the topmost bar of your website, most commonly used for offer notifications. Most of the settings are mostly preferences and are localized, meaning they don’t majorly impact the whole website.

Available Sub-Settings:
- Enable TopBar: Toggle to enable or disable the topbar.

- Notification Text, Button Label and Button Link: Here you can change the text displayed on the topbar, and the button label and link.

As the button implies, the Enable to open link in a new tab makes it so that the link in this section, if clicked, opens up a new browser tab.
Header Settings
Header Settings is where you can change the settings of the header of your website. Most of the settings are mostly preferences and are localized, meaning they don’t majorly impact the whole website.
Available Sub-Settings:

- Contact Details and Button Settings: You can set or modify the contact details shown on the header through these settings. You can also change what text the buttons on the header hold and their links.

- Enable Social Links: Toggle to enable or disable the social link icons and links on the header.


- Social Links: This option is where you can add, remove and customize the social links present on the header. This option is only effective if you have Enable Social Links turned on.

To add a new link, click on the Add new links button.
For this demo, let’s set up 3 social media links for the header — Facebook Link, Twitter Link, and Instagram Link.
For the first link i.e, the Facebook link, choose “facebook” from the Social Media dropdown menu.

Add the link to your Facebook profile in the Link field.

The steps for the other two links are quite similar. Here’s the end result:

Click on Publish and you’ll be able to see the changes in the header.
Post-Page Settings
These settings apply to all the Single Posts on your website, which are generally blog posts.

Available Sub-Settings:
- Hide Prefix in Archive Page: Enable/disable to show or hide prefix in the archive page.

- Hide Author, Posted Date, Post Views: Enable these settings to hide Author name, Date of Publishing, and number of views on your Single Page Posts (blog posts).

This is what the blog post looks like before turning on these settings.

After turning on each of those settings, this is what the same page looks like:

- Related Posts Section Title: You change the Related Posts heading displayed at the end of each blog post by editing this setting.

By default, the text is set to “You might also like”:

Misc Settings
Misc Settings contains a few other miscellaneous settings that affect various parts of the website.
