You now have the Dividend theme installed on your WordPress installation and you can now set up the different options by going to the Theme Options panel.

But wait – before you start customizing your site, the Dividend theme requires you to install a number of plugins essential for its proper functioning.

Install Required Plugins

As you can see above, the Dividend theme requires the following plugins to work properly:

MyThemeShop Theme/Plugin Updater
WP Review
WP Shortcode
WP Tab Widget

To install the plugins, simply go to your WordPress dashboard and click on “Install Plugins”. You’ll then be taken to the page with the required plugins. Additionally, you’ll find a number of plugins recommended by MyThemeShop that you can optionally use with the Dividend theme.

Importing Demo Data

The Dividend theme comes with MyThemeShop’s one click demo importer. This feature allows you to quickly import the theme options, theme options & widgets, or theme options, widgets & the right content that you’ll find for your theme on MyThemeShop.com, allowing you to get started with your site and customize it really quickly.

To use this feature, navigate to Appearance >> Theme Options, and click on “Import/Export”. You’ll then see the different layouts with different options for importing. The Dividend theme includes four layouts which you can preview before installing – Default, Deals, Minimal and Magazine.

You’ll find that you have three options for importing the demos:

Import Theme Options – only imports the theme options and nothing else. You can then use the theme options to customize your site.
Import Theme Options & Widgets – adds the theme options together with the widgets used on the demo at MyThemeShop.com
Import Theme Options, Widgets & Content – does all of the above but also adds the demo content you find on MyThemeShop.com. You’ll want to use this option if you have a new site with no content on it already and you want to quickly add in demo content so you can then customize your site.

Besides, you’ll also have the option to remove the demo content (either automatically or manually) if you need to.

Dividend Theme Customization Options

One of Dividend’s most impressive features is the powerful theme options panel, which includes tons of easy-to-use customization options to help you achieve a unique site even without touching a single line of code.

Below is an overview of the setting options you’ll find in the theme control panel:

This allows you to easily create a deals website with special deals information.

For example, you can add call to action buttons and highlight deals expiry dates to entice potential customers to take action.

Beautiful Social Sharing Options

I love the attractive social media icons and buttons included in the Dividend theme. They fit elegantly with the other site elements and are strategically placed to help you gain more exposure on social media.

Better still, the theme options panel contains settings for you to easily enable/disable social sharing buttons on single posts. You can also choose the position for the social sharing icons – above the content, below the content or floating. In addition, you can enable the sharing buttons for pages too, and not just posts.

Another set of social media icons is strategically
