Getting Started

So you bought FitPro, and you’re ready to get your website up. Here’s a step by step guide to make sure you get up and running as quickly as possible.

Domain & Hosting

Before you can install FitPro, you must have a hosted website domain.

WordPress

The next step is to install WordPress. Most hosts allow you to do this in one click.

Every host is different, so if you have problems please contact your website host.

If your host does not offer a one-click install, please see this page at wordpress.org for manual installation instructions.

*Note – Do not install WordPress in your root directory on top of your old website! Instead, install in a sub directory (folder) like http://www.yoursite.com/wordpress. Build the site there, then you can move it into the root directory later.

Installing FitPro

Ok, now for the good part. Let’s get FitPro installed!

Installing Your Theme through WordPress (Recommended)

  1. Download the theme’s .zip file
  2. Log in to WordPress, go to Appearance > Themes
  3. Click on the “Install Themes” tab, and click the blue “upload” link
  4. Upload your theme’s .zip file, then activate the theme

Or…Install your theme through FTP

If you would like to upload your theme via FTP, follow these instructions.

  2. Unzip the theme folder
  3. Upload the unzipped folder to the wp-content/themes folder on your server
  4. Log in to your WordPress admin area, go to Themes, and activate the FitPro theme

After that, your theme should be ready to go. Now you will want to configure the theme through the theme options page.

FitPro Options

FitPro has an advanced theme options page that makes customizing and setting up your website incredibly easy. To access the theme options, log in to your WordPress admin area, and go to Appearance > FitPro Options.

To upload your company logo, check the “use custom image” box. Browse for your logo file, and click “Insert into FitPro theme.” If you don’t see “Insert into FitPro theme,” copy the image url, close the upload box, and paste the url into the gray box.

Make sure to click “update logo” or the blue save button at the bottom, or else your changes will not be saved.

If you do not wish to display a custom logo, simply uncheck the box, and your site title will be displayed instead. You can edit what this text says in your WordPress admin area under Settings > General in the left side navigation.

To show or hide the site description text, simply check or uncheck the “Hide site description” checkbox. You can edit what this text says in your WordPress admin area under Settings > General in the left side navigation.

FitPro Platinum Members Area

The Members area feature lets you display private content to any registered member. Here’s how to set it up.

Add global content to the Members Area

When you activate FitPro Platinum, a page called “Members Area” will be created. To add global content that all members will see go to Pages > Members Area in your WordPress admin area.

Add content just like a normal page. You can add video, links, text, or anything you want to this page, and it will be displayed to all registered members.

Add content for Individual Users

If you want to add specific content for each user, you can do that through their user profile pages. For example, if you have a specific workout for a client that you want only them to see, here’s how to do that.

  1. The user must be registered first! (Look below for instructions on registering users)
  2. In your WordPress admin area, go to “Users” and click on the profile of the user.
  3. Scroll to the bottom of their profile page, and you will see an editing box where you can add any content you wish to their specific Members Area page.
  4. Make sure to save your changes!

User Registration

Fit pro instructions

The Members Area feature uses the WordPress user registration functionality. There are 2 ways to do it…

1. Let users register themselves

In your WordPress admin area, go to Settings > General and check the box that says “Anyone can register” then save your changes.

Now anyone can register by going to your website at the registration url, which looks like this: http://www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php?action=register

You can also use the Meta Widget to display the Registration link. To do this, go to “Widgets” in your WordPress admin area, and drag the Meta widget into one of the FitPro widget areas.

If you use this method, you will eventually get spam registrations. These are usually harmless, (mostly just annoying) but just make sure you have your Akismet plugin activated to catch some of the spam for you. To do this, go to Plugins, and activate “Akismet”. You will need to get a free API key, just follow the instructions given when activating. There are also plugins which add a Captcha to your registration page, just search the WordPress plugin repository to find these.

2. Register users yourself individually

If you have a small number of users to register, you can just register them yourself.

Login to your WordPress admin area, go to Users > Add New and add each user individually.

The Sidebar Commander

This is the most advanced way to control your widgets and widget areas ever created.

Create new widget areas, fill them with widgets, and place them on any post/page you want. To make things easier here’s a project based example of what you can do with the Sidebar Commander.

Video Tutorial

Add the Nivo Slider to a different page

You know how to add the slider to your homepage, but how do you get it on a different page?
1. Go to Appearance => Widgets, and create a new widget area

Give it a name, and click the blue +options text. Select “Main Content” widget area type, then click add new.


2. Drag the Nivo Slider widget into your new widget area, then set your options


3. Go to Pages => Add New, and create the page you want the slider on

4. On the page edit screen, select Template: Widgetized Page (on the right sidebar). Publish or save your page.


5. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the Sidebar Commander box, click the “Main Content Area” tab, and click your new widget area. Save or update your page.

If you view this page live, you will see that your Nivo Slider is now there! If you want to make this a full width slider, go back to your page edit screen and choose “Full Width” under Column Layout on the right sidebar.

You can add text and other things to your page by going back to Appearance => Widgets, and dragging another widget underneath your new slider.

Installing a Child Theme

If you want to make a lot of customizations to your site, you will want to install a child theme and make your changes there.

Very Fit Pro Manual

A child theme is simply a different folder to store your changes. In its simplest form, it’s a folder with a single style.css file in it. The point of a child theme is to keep your changes in a separate place so they don’t get overwritten when you update your parent theme (FitPro).

We have provided a starter child theme for you, you can download it from your account dashboard.

Install and activate your child theme

Can Fit Pro Canada

  1. After downloading your child theme, login to your WordPress admin area. Go to Appearance => Themes.
  2. Click on the “Install themes” tab at the top, then click the blue text that says “Upload.”
  3. Find the child theme .zip file, upload it, and activate it.

That’s it! Now you can go to Appearance => Editor and make any changes you desire.

Changing the Font

FitPro uses Cufon font replacement, which looks cool but makes it a little more difficult to change.

The Easy Way

Platinum users –Click here to download this child theme with Cufon disabled. Then install and activate it using the steps above. (Delete the child theme you already installed before if necessary).

Standard users –Click here to download this child theme with Cufon disabled. Then install and activate it using the steps above. (Delete the child theme you already installed before if necessary).

Once you have uploaded and activated the child theme, you can add your own fonts via the style.css file in the child theme. You can also use a plugin such as this one: Google Fonts Plugin.

The Hard Way

To change the font, add the code below to your functions.php file. (*Note: If you don’t have a functions.php file in your child theme, you will need to create one. Make sure there are opening and closing php tags, but don’t have more than one of each!)


function disable_font() {

wp_deregister_script( 'cufon-yui' );
wp_deregister_script( 'cufon-impact-400' );
wp_deregister_script( 'cufon-custom' );
wp_dequeue_script( 'cufon-yui' );
wp_dequeue_script( 'cufon-impact-400' );
wp_dequeue_script( 'cufon-custom' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'disable_font', 11 );

Save the file, then switch to the style.css file and add your new font like this:

body {
font-family: Palatino, Georgia, serif;
font-size: 14px;
}

You may also want to change the headings like this:

h1, h2, h3, h4, .entry-title, .page-title, .widget-title {
font-family: Palatino, Georgia, serif;
font-weight: bold;
}

Modify as necessary.
