How To Import Demo

The easiest way to import our demo content is to use our Thim Core Demo Importer. Our importer will give you all pages and posts, several sample sliders, widgets, Customize Options, assigned pages, and more. This is recommended to do on fresh installs. It will not replace content like posts, pages, portfolio, etc , it will not delete current menus but configure our demo menus, and it will not replace but add sliders.
