Importing Demo Content

Import the complete Crest demo website and start customizing it with Divi 5.

After installing and activating Crest, a new Crest menu item will appear in your WordPress dashboard. Open it to access the demo importer.

For the best results, we recommend importing the demo on a fresh WordPress installation. If you are working on an existing website, create a complete backup first.

Import the Crest Demo

1. In your WordPress dashboard, click Crest.

2. Open the demo import page.

3. Review the available import options.

4. On a fresh website, leave all options selected so the pages, media, menus, Theme Builder templates, presets, and settings are imported.

5. If you do not need a particular item, uncheck it before starting.

6. Click Import Demo Content.

The import may take several minutes depending on your server and internet connection. Keep the page open and do not refresh or close the browser while the process is running.

When the success message appears, the Crest demo content has been imported.

After the Import

Visit the front end of your website and check that the pages, navigation, images, and Theme Builder templates are displaying correctly.

You can then begin replacing the demo text and images with your own content. To personalize the website colors, continue to the Change Color Scheme article.

If the importer offers a Remove Demo Content & Import Functions option, you can use it after a successful import to remove the importer from your WordPress dashboard. This does not remove the content you imported.

But, We recommend keeping the demo importer active on your website, as it includes a helpful Restore Content feature. If you accidentally delete a page or any other demo content, you can use this feature to restore individual pages or all of the original child theme content/pages, without running the complete import again.
