How to install theme from wordpress dashboard?
You can always search for the WordPress theme directly from the WordPress theme repo, or you can download the .zip file and then install it. I am a huge fan of premium WordPress themes, as they offer better features and functionality than free theme and most free WordPress theme and premium theme club allow you to download the .zip file of the theme and you can install it. So to make things easy, I assume that you have downloaded the theme's .zip file.
So once you have downloaded the WordPress theme, login to your WordPress dashboard. Click Appearance> Theme. Click on the install theme.
Before activating the theme, you can click on "Live Preview" so that you know what it looks like before activating it for everyone. Once you are satisfied with the look and feel it, you can click on Activate. Your newly installed theme will go live for public. If you want to make some changes before you live the theme on your site, you can use the Theme test drive WordPress plugin.
Another way to install a WordPress theme is to upload it directly via FTP (File Transfer Protocol), but it is a long process and it is useful when you do not have a .zip file of your theme. I will write a tutorial on how to manually install the theme via FTP.
I hope this tutorial will help beginners, one step closer to WordPress.
