Installation

Bootplate and this starter theme are not, as yet, available on the WordPress.org theme repo. It may be at some point, but it’s not there yet. Because it’s not there, you would have to manually update Bootplate periodically, and that’s a pain. There’s a wonderful (and free) WordPress plugin called GitHub Updater which allows you to install and receive automatic theme and plugin updates for stuff securely hosted on GitHub.

Until Bootplate is available on the WordPress.org theme repo, this is the recommended installation process: http://bootplate.jdmdigital.co/setup/install/
