Quick install
Upload the theme. Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload, pick the theme zip from inside the downloaded package, then click Activate.
Install required plugins. After activation a notice appears at the top - click Begin Installing Plugins, select all, then Install and Activate.
Configure Alona Options. Open Alona Options at the bottom of the admin sidebar to set tracking code, custom CSS, and social profile URLs.
Create your homepage. Add a new page, pick a Template (e.g. Fullscreen Slider or Agency), then assign it under Settings → Reading.
Portfolio images are auto-resized to the nearest 480px multiplier. Upload source images at sizes that align with 480/960/1440 to avoid unexpected cropping.
