# SeeKo documentation

> Set up SeeKo, the BuddyPress theme for member search and matching communities: install it, register it in the Seeko Panel, import a demo, then set up search, matching and memberships.

Source: https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/

SeeKo is a BuddyPress community theme for sites where members find each other: advanced member search, a matching system and paid memberships. See it live on the [SeeKo demo](https://seeko.seventhqueen.com/).

## Get started in 5 steps

1. [Install SeeKo](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/install-the-theme/) from **Appearance > Themes > Add New Theme > Upload Theme** and activate it. Check the [requirements](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/theme-requirements/) of your hosting first.
2. The **Seeko Panel** opens. You find it any time under **Appearance > Seeko Panel**. On its **Plugins** tab, click **Install & activate child theme** to keep your own changes safe ([child theme](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/introduction-to-the-child-theme/)).
3. [Register SeeKo](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/register-your-theme/) with your ThemeForest purchase code on the **Dashboard** tab.
4. [Import a demo](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/importing-demo-content/) (Dating or Mentoring) on the **Demo Data** tab. The import installs and activates the plugins that demo needs.
5. Make it yours in **Appearance > Customize > Seeko Options** ([Customizer](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/customizer/), [Header and menus](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/header-and-menus/)) and set up [member search](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/seeko-search-overview/).

Later: add or update plugins on the **Plugins** tab ([SeeKo plugins](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/bundled-plugins/)) and keep SeeKo up to date ([updates](https://seventhqueen.com/docs/seeko/theme-updates/)).

## What is in the ThemeForest download

In your ThemeForest **Downloads**, choose **All files & documentation**. You get the main files zip; unzip it on your computer. Inside:

- **WordPress** folder: `seeko.zip` (the theme) and `seeko-child.zip` (the child theme). These two zips are the ones you upload in **Appearance > Themes > Add New Theme > Upload Theme**. Do not upload the main files zip itself.
- **Plugins** folder: The premium plugins that come with SeeKo, for manual installs. Normally you install and update them from the **Plugins** tab of the Seeko Panel.
- **Licensing** folder: the license files. Your purchase code is in the separate **License certificate & purchase code** download.
