Theme Installation Procedure

NOTE: before installing the QUANTUM theme we recommend you install the Woocommerce plug-in and Members Area plug-in first and set your permalinks to Post Name.

To install the QUANTUM theme follow these steps

  • Step 1: Select "Appearance" from the WordPress administration menu
  • Step 2: Select "Add New" (located near the top of the page)
  • Step 3: Select "Upload Theme" (located near the top of the page)
  • Step 4: Select "Browse" and locate the quantum-theme.zip file and proceed with installation
  • Step 5: Activate the theme and you're all done.

Overview of Setup files

  • quantum.wordpress.2014-08-08.xml
    • This file contains all of the media attachments, news posts, page data and custom post type data from the QUANTUM demo site. We recommend you install the following plug-ins first before importing this file:
      • Woocommerce
      • Member roles plug-in (see below for more information pertaining to this plug-in)
    • After the theme has been installed follow these steps to import the WordPress data:
      • Step 1: Locate the "Tools" section under the WordPress administration menu
      • Step 2: Select "Import" under the "Tools" sub-menu
      • Step 3: Select "WordPress" from the import list selection
      • Step 4: Press the "Browse" button and locate the quantum.wordpress.2014-08-08.xml bundled with the Quantum theme
      • Final Step: Press the "Upload file and import" button and let the import procedure run its course. You may be asked to assign news posts to a an existing member in your database during the import and you will also be asked to "download and import media attachments" as well (press the checkbox and continue with the import until it has completed).
  • redux_options_quantum_options_backup_08-08-2014.json
    • This file contains the Redux configuration options from the QUANTUM demo site. After the theme is installed follow these steps to import the Redux options:
      • Step 1: Select Quantum Options from the WordPress administration menu.
      • Step 2: Select the Import/Export tab.
      • Step 3: Under "Import Options" press the "Import from file" button - selecting this will expand a textarea field.
      • Step 4: Locate the redux_options_quantum_options_backup_08-08-2014.json file in the setup_files folder and open it with any text editor and proceed to copy the entire contents of this file (Select all then copy).
      • Step 5: Paste the data into the textarea field we accessed in Step 3
      • Final Step: Press "Save Changes" and you're all done.

Overview of Security files

  • dl-file.php
    • This file is used to protect the following file types from being accessed by users who are not registered:
      • .pdf, .psd, .ai, .eps, .ps, .doc, .rtf, .xls, .ppt, .odt, .ods
    • Additional file types can be filtered by editing the dl-file.php
    • This file needs to be uploaded to the root directory of your website (usually public_html or www folder). Keep in mind that using this file may cause a slight slowdown with page load times - this is due to the fact that each file being served on your page has to be examined first by the script in order to determine which files should be public and private.
  • htaccess-addon-scripts.txt
    • This file contains code blocks which will add extra layers of security and browser caching to your website. It also contains a rewrite script which is required for the dl-file.php file to work correctly. Each code block in this file contains a description of what each code block does so it is self-explanatory. NOTE: The code in this file should be added to your existing .htaccess file. DO NOT copy and replace the contents of your existing .htaccess file with the code blocks in htaccess-addon-scripts.txt - doing so will result in your permalinks breaking. If you are not comfortable with updating your .htaccess then please email our support team for assistance.
  • members-area.zip (previously member-roles.zip)
    • This is a custom plug-in developed by Pulsar Media and is required to be installed in order for the Members area to function correctly.
    • This plug-in adds three new member roles to the WordPress database and each role does not allow access to the WordPress administration area. The three member roles created are:
      • Standard Member
        • This member type can access private posts, order history and edit their account information.
      • Board Member
        • This member type can access private posts, order history, workshop files and edit their account information.
      • Executive Member
        • This member type can access private posts, order history, workshop files and edit their account information.

The Members Area now has a settings page in the WordPress adminstration area which allows you to set the default Registration role. See screenshot below for reference:

Members Area

The members area of the Quantum theme is a private system for registered members only. In the members area, members can browse workshop files, view past and current orders, and update their account information.

There are 3 custom member roles (provided by the Member-roles plug-in) that can access the members area. These roles are:

Standard Member

  • A Standard Member can access private posts, edit their account information and view past and current orders.

Board Member

  • A Board Member can access private posts, browse workshop files and archives, edit their account information and view past and current orders.

Your first name is also displayed adjacent to the Welcome back message.



When browsing through the Members area you will notice that the Members area has its own dedicated navigation located just below the sub-header area. This navigation allows you to navigate across each area of the Members backend. NOTE: Pressing the "Sign Out" button on the Members navigation will redirect you back to the login page whereas the "Sign out" button in the header area will redirect you back to the current page you are browsing.



NOTE: If you would like to keep your files private for members only you can use the dl-file.php that comes bundled with the Quantum theme.

Assigning Files to the Workshop area

Under the Media library you will notice that two new taxonomies have been added the media attachment post type - "File Assignment" and "Archive Assignment".

File Assignment Taxonomy

There are only two tags that should exist for this taxonomy - "Sidebar" and "Workshop". You can use these two tags to assign your files to the Workshop area and the Member files widget (more info on this below). Other tags created under this taxonomy will not be recognized in the Members area and will be of no use. As an example your File Assignment taxonomy should look exactly like the following image:



Archive Assignment Taxonomy

There is only one type of tag that should be inserted into this taxonomy - year tags. You can archive your files by assigning year dates to them via this taxonomy. You can insert as many year dates as you desire but know that this is the only value type the members area will accept.

As an example your Archive Assignment taxonomy should look similar to the following image:



Member Area widgets

Built into the QUANTUM theme are two dedicated widgets for the Members area - the "Members Archive" widget and the "Member Files" widget

Members Archive widget

The Members Archive widget displays a drop down menu of all the dates that have been inserted into the Archive Assignment taxonomy. This drop down menu will allow you to browse your files by the year tags that they have been assigned. An example of this can be seen in the image below:

Member Files widget

The Members Archive widget displays a list of files that have been assigned the "sidebar" tag under the File Assignment taxonomy. An example of this can be seen in the image below:

File naming conventions

One last thing we would like to point out about the members area is file naming conventions. As an example, when uploading your files to the media library be sure to name them descriptively in the following format:

General-info-guide_03-21-2014.pdf

This will allow the parser to extract the file name and date correctly and display it in a presentable manner like so:

Quantum Options

QUANTUM uses the Redux Framework to manage options and font styles. You can access these options under "Quantum Options" in the WordPress administration area.

Each option within each tab has a short description which describes the purpose of the option. If you are unsure or have a question about a specific option feel free to email our support team at themesupport@pulsarmedia.ca

The following screenshot provides an overview of the Quantum Options section in WordPress.

Theme Customizer

The theme customizer allows you to customize your website within a dynamic window environment. All changes you make within this environment can be previewed in real-time before any changes are saved - thats right, you can see your changes first and decide later whether or not to save and commit your changes.

The theme customizer can be accessed under Appearance -> Customize QUANTUM - see image below for a reference of the theme customizer environment.

QUANTUM - Powerful WordPress Business Theme

By Pulsar Media - www.pulsarmedia.ca

Language Support

The QUANTUM theme can be translated to your language of choice by editing the localization.po file located in the theme's languages folder. The file can be opened and edited with POEdit - you can download POEdit here. Once you have inserted your translations and saved the file a .mo file will also be generated - the .mo file should match the same file name as the .po file.

You will also have to define your language in the wp-config.php file located on your server. The following line of code should be added to your wp-config.php file:

define ('WPLANG', 'en_EN');

You will have to update/change the 'en_EN' to match your language code which you can find on the offical WordPress languages page here

Alternatively, you can avoid all of the above steps and instead use the popular WPML plug-in to translate the QUANTUM theme easily through the WordPress admin panel.
