Theme activation is the easiest task to perform with WordPress and my favorite one. For those of you who already got copy of frugal Theme, unzip/extract it and keep in its own directory. Access your site’s server with an FTP program and add this directory into /wp-content/themes/ path.

Log in to your Administration Panel and follow to Appearance in the left-hand side horizontal menu. You’ll see each theme available for you to use along with current theme on the top. Click Activate on one of your choice and that’s it. You can play with Preview option to view theme without activation.

If you’re capable of editing CSS and HTML you can alter the theme to suit your taste. However I would recommend that you edit a copy of the files keeping backup unchanged.

Installing a WordPress Plugin can vary from one to another but almost all WordPress Plugins install the same way.
Some Plugins come in folders with names associated with plugin some plugins come as separate files.

Always download the latest version of the WordPress Plugin to your computer.
Access your site’s server with an FTP program. Upload the Plugin file(s) or folder to the /wp-content/plugins folder.

Click on Plugins from the left-hand side horizontal menu in your WordPress Administration Panel,

You’ll see your new Plugin listed. If it’s not the case check with your FTP program the folder to see if it is installed. If it isn’t, upload the files again. If it is, delete the files and upload them again.

Click Activate to turn the WordPress Plugin on.
Check your Administration Panel or WordPress blog to see if the Plugin is working.

If your WordPress Plugin requires some form of configuration or set up, it will add an extra menu to your Settings or separate set of configuration in Administration Panel.

Always check the Plugin’s official page or documentation for instructions for configuration to make sure your plugin installed properly.
