Requirements
- ClassicPress 2.0 or later
- PHP 7.4 or later
Download
Download a packaged theme ZIP from Nocturne’s GitHub releases. Choose the theme ZIP attached to a release rather than GitHub’s automatically generated source archive.
Install and activate
- In the ClassicPress dashboard, go to Appearance → Themes → Add New.
- Select Upload Theme, choose the Nocturne ZIP, and click Install Now.
- Click Activate.
- Under Appearance → Widgets, add widgets to the Primary widget area if you want a sidebar.
- Go to Appearance → Customize → Theme: Content → Layout to choose the sidebar position.
Nocturne starts with a right sidebar layout, but the sidebar only appears when its Primary widget area contains widgets.
Updating
Download the latest release ZIP and upload it through the Themes screen, replacing the installed version when prompted. Direct edits to theme files may be overwritten; use a child theme for persistent changes.
