Hello michaelbeijer,

Smarty is HTML template, not a wordpress theme (I think this is what you are asking). You can create a wordpress theme using it but coding is required.

Thanks,

Hi Dorin,

OK, so I dumped the whole thing on my server (via FTP) and am in the admin panel. However, how can I make it so the admin part of the site is password protected? I am not sure what to do to set up an admin account and password.

I stuck it in this testing domain I also own:

• https://wkwkwk.org/Smarty_5/html_admin/index.html
• https://wkwkwk.org/Smarty_5/html_frontend/ (looks amazing!)

My plan is to use Smarty to build my own professional business website (I'm a patent translator).

Regards,

Michael

Hi Michael,

Indeed, the purpose of a template is to be used to create your own website but at least HTML is required (this is enough to create the frontend using Smarty). Here is a tutorial to learn HTML: https://www.w3schools.com/html/

To create an admin panel for your website using the template is way more complicated: a backend programming language is required (example: PHP).

So all the templates you see here on wrapbootstrap (and similar marketplaces) are for developers. If you are not a developer, you can hire one on various freelancing platforms. Or you can ask for a refund.

Thanks,
Dorin Grigoras

Aha, I understand now. That's a shame, because it all looks great.

Yes, I don't think I will be able to manage on my own. I'm only just learning AutoHotkey at the moment, so this is definitely beyond my skills. Also, I wanted something that I could just use out of the box. When I saw that this theme had an admin panel I thought that meant that it would be easy to use it to edit the site.

Sorry to be a pain, but could I have a refund? I think I need a Wordpress theme instead.

Yes, better to use a wordpress theme for what you need. :)
Please see the "Refund policy" link at the bottom.

Have a great day,
Thanks.
