Installation instructions assume you have WordPress installed in the root of your domain and your BANS store installed in a subfolder. I will use /store to refer to the installation location of the BANS store. If you named your subfolder something different please change the location.
This is a full installation of the Revolution Church WordPress Theme converted for BANS. Support for the Revolution Church theme can be found here. Note: support for the WordPress Revolution2 themes require a paid subscrition. I can only offer limited support for configuring the WordPress side of this template. However I can answer any questions regarding the BANS conversion.
If you have any questions regarding the conversion of the template you can post comments here.
Or you can email me: bryan@buildabetternichestore.com
Note: When uploading the Church theme folders you need to keep them named as they are (church_10). If you change the name of the folders the conversion wont work properly.
We will start by installing the Revolution Church BANS theme in your subfolder. These files can be found in the /store folder of the files you downloaded.
1. Upload the inc-store-menu.php and store-search.php files to your /store folder, the root of your BANS store. www.yourwebsite.com/store
2. Upload the church_10 folder into your BANS themes folder with your other themes. www.yourwebsite.com/store/themes
Next we will install the Revolution Church Wordpress theme into the root of your domain.
1. Upload the church_10 folder into your /themes folder of your WordPress site. www.yourwebsite.com/wp-content/themes
First configure the header.php file from your BANS theme. www.yourwebsite.com/store/themes/church_10/header.php
You will need to change this code that is found near the top of the file:
<?phpChange the $bans_url to your own BANS url. If named your subfolder something different than /store change that as well.
Change the $blog_url to the url of your blog.
Do not included a trailing slash!
Next we will configure the sidebar_left.php file found in your Revolution Church WordPress themes. www.yourwebsite.com/wp-content/themes/church_10/sidebar_left.php
You will need to change this code:
<?php $file_contents = file_get_contents('http://www.yourwebsite.com/store/inc-store-menu.php');Change the www.yourwebsite.com/store to your BANS store directory, if you named your subfolder something other than /store change that.
In order to get the BANS search to show up we need to configure the inc-bans-sidebar.php file. This file is found in your Revolution Church WordPress themes. www.yourwebsite.com/wp-content/themes/church_10/inc-bans-siebar.php
You will need to change this code:
<?php $file_contents = file_get_contents("http://www.yourwebsite.com/store/store-search.php"); echo $file_contents; ?>Change the www.yourwebsite.com/store to your BANS store directory, if you named your subfolder something other than /store change that.
<?php $file_contents = file_get_contents("http://www.yourwebsite.com/store/store-search.php"); echo $file_contents; ?>Activate the themes in each administration section and you are ready to go.
First go into your WordPress settings and change the permalink structure to someting other than the defautl settings, month and name is a good choice. Next create a page in WordPress and title it Store, change your title according to the name of the subfolder where BANS is installed. You can now publish that page, don't worry about adding content. After publishing it make sure the url structure is http://www.yourwebsite.com/store. There should now be a link on your menu header for your store.
