Installation

This guide covers the basics of installing the standalone theme into WordPress.

Important: This tutorial covers installation of the standalone version of the theme which DOESN’T contain the demo content. If you’d like to replicate our demo please install the RocketLauncher package. The tutorial on how to do that can be found under Tutorials in this demo content.
Note: All sample content images will be replaced with blank versions. Screenshots, such as those for the Logo Editing tutorial will remain however.

Downloading the necessary files

To install the theme, you need two files:-

  • Panacea Theme (rt_panacea_wp.zip) – This file is the standalone theme package you will use to install your theme into WordPress.
  • Gantry Plugin (gantry_wordpress_framework.zip) – This file contains the Gantry Framework Plugin and it’s required in order to have our themes working.

There are other files that you may wish to download that accompany the release, but are not required for the theme to work.

  • Panacea Source PNG(s) (rt_panacea_wp-sources.zip) – This contains all the Adobe Fireworks PNG source files for the theme, and if applicable, the logo font.

Client Testimonials

Wonderful, friendly service. Thank you so much for looking after us!

Faye Chandler, Oliver Chandler Limited

I would gladly recommend Keeley to anybody who is looking for a conscientious, detailed and hard working accounting professional. Both individually, during her career before Magenta, and now as part of the wider Magenta Accounts team Keeley has looked after my financial well-being over the last fifteen years, and has done it exquisitely well. In fact, so happy am I to recommend Keeley, that four of my closest friends now have their company finances managed by Keeley's safe hands at Magenta.

Mike Boreham. Managing Director, Quiddity Solutions Limited

Magenta have handled our payroll and invoicing for three years, and have had an extremely positive impact on Semantic. Between them the team now handle all my personal and professional needs.

Nick Warren. Managing Director, Semantic Limited

Keeley has handled all my tax affairs for many years and I cannot speak highly enough about the professional level of service she has provided. Her efficiency and knowledge mean that my tax affairs are handled swiftly and competently making the whole experience pleasurable and cost effective.

Linda Green

Just a note to say how impressed I have been with Magenta Accounts and the service that you have provided me within my first 6 months of setting up my business. With being a new business, making sure I generate income immediately is vital, so by knowing that you are taking away of all my financial duties from me such as making small payments to providing monthly management accounts allows me to focus more of my time on other aspects such as growing the business and generating revenue. Each member of staff provides a personal and prompt service and it is comforting to know that whoever I speak to at Magenta Accounts, each member of staff is fully aware of my accounts and the current situation. I would fully recommend your company to any business who is looking for a service that not only helps take away the stress of looking after money, but also helps you grow as a business.

Michael Dyble, Managing Director, Dybles Limited

Keeley and her team are fantastic at providing the right advice, expert skills and taking the headache of accounting away from me, allowing me to spend more time on my business, not in it. Highly recommended local, friendly company.
