      4. Activating Plugins<\/h3>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Once all plugins are installed, go to Plugins > Install Plugins<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      2. Activate each installed plugin by clicking Activate<\/strong> under each plugin name.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Your PicTech theme and necessary plugins are now fully installed and activated. In the next steps, you will import the demo pages to fully set up your website.<\/p>\n

        Manual Plugin Installation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

        We understand that due to differences in server environments, the plugin installer may encounter issues while installing all required plugins. To ensure a smooth installation process, we have included the necessary plugins within the theme package for users convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The PicTech Toolkit<\/strong> plugin is included in both the single theme file and the full theme package. You can find it in the following directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        pictech-wp\\inc\\plugins<\/code><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        If you encounter errors such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • “The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • “Plugin doesn\u2019t install.”<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          You can manually install the plugin by following these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          1. Locate the plugin inside the theme folder or the theme package downloaded from your ThemeForest (TF) account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Upload the extracted plugin file (e.g., Pictech-Toolkit.zip) to your WordPress site via the Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin<\/strong> option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Activate the plugin after installation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
