If you already have the free version, you will have to delete the free version from WordPress before continuing. You can’t delete an active theme – Activate another theme, for example the default WordPress theme (TwentySeventeen) and you can safely remove the old free version.

To remove the free version you have to:

  1. In WordPress, go to Appearance Themes.
  2. Click the now deactivated free version of the theme and click “Delete” in the bottom-right corner.

To install your new premium theme you have to:

  1. In WordPress, go to Appearance – Themes.
  2. Click on the ‘Add New’ button in the top left.
  3. Click ‘Upload File’
  4. Choose the new theme you downloaded from the link below.
  5. When the install is processed, click ‘Activate’.
  6. You’re done!

Mac Computers might uncompress the zip after the download has been completed. If this happens, right click the folder and click ‘Compress’ before uploading to WordPress.
