Installation in Contao 5

Open the Contao Manager: www.your-domain.com/contao-manager.phar.php. In the Discover tab, enter CONVERT Theme and click Add.

 
In the Packages tab you should now see a new package to be installed. Click the button Apply changes at the bottom to start the installation.

 
Once the installation is finished, click Update database.

 
Run all database migrations and click Continue. The first step creates all folders and files in the file manager.

 
Then the missing fields are created in the database.

 
In the last step the demo data is imported.

Done! When you open your site, you should already see the demo. The theme comes with 2 demo variants, each with its own website root.

Error: imagick not installed

If the error imagick not installed occurs with PHP 8.0, you can solve it with an adjustment in config.yml and clearing the cache afterwards. More information in the PDIR blog post (German)
