# Themedd - Installation

### Installing Themedd from your WordPress admin

We strongly recommend using a child theme with Themedd. Read our [Themedd - Using a child theme](https://easydigitaldownloads.com/docs/themedd-using-a-child-theme/) article to find out how.

The below will show you how to install Themedd, without using a child theme: 1. Download [Themedd](https://easydigitaldownloads.com/downloads/themedd/) to your computer. Click the download link after purchase (it&#039;s free!) from the purchase confirmation page or from your purchase receipt email. You can also download Themedd from your [account](https://easydigitaldownloads.com/your-account/) page after purchase.
2. In your WordPress admin, go to *Appearance* → *Themes* and click **Add New** from the top of the screen.
3. Click **Upload Theme** from the top of the screen.
4. Click **Browse**, select the zip file you downloaded in step 1 and click **open**. Lastly, click **Install Now**.
5. Click **Activate** to active Themedd.

**Tip**: Installing Themedd on a Multisite installation of WordPress? For step 2 above, go to *My Sites* → *Network Admin* → *Themes*.
