# Getting Started

This article will guide you through the initial steps of setting up and building your website with Seyarat.

Everything required to install, configure, and operate Seyarat—from vehicle listings and dealer dashboards to Elementor templates and payments.

### 1. Requirements <a href="#id-1.-requirements" id="id-1.-requirements"></a>

For a stable installation, use a current WordPress environment that meets or exceeds the following values.

For the best performance and compatibility, please make sure your hosting environment and PHP configuration meet the recommended requirements.

To use Seyarat properly, your server should meet the following minimum requirements:

* **WordPress:** Version 6.0 or higher
* **PHP:** Version 7.4 or higher

Seyarat has been tested on **macOS, Windows, and Linux** environments. We also recommend reviewing the server configuration requirements below to ensure the theme runs smoothly and functions correctly.

| Component             | Minimum | Recommended           |
| --------------------- | ------- | --------------------- |
| WordPress             | 6.0     | Latest stable release |
| PHP                   | 7.4     | 8.1 or newer          |
| memory\_limit         | 256 MB  | 512 MB                |
| max\_execution\_time  | 180     | 180                   |
| max\_input\_time      | 2000    | 3000                  |
| upload\_max\_filesize | 32M     | 32M                   |

## 2. File Included

This section explains how to download the **Seyarat Theme** from ThemeForest and provides an overview of the files included in the package.

After purchasing Seyarat on ThemeForest, log in to your ThemeForest account and go to the **Downloads** page. Locate **Seyarat**, then click the **Download** button. You will see two main download options:

* **All files & documentation** – Includes the complete theme package, documentation, and all related files.
* **Installable WordPress file only** – Includes only the WordPress theme ZIP file required for installation.

If you download the complete package, it will contain several files and folders. Below is an overview of the included items and a brief explanation of what each one is used for.

1. **`seyarat.zip`** – The main Seyarat theme installation file. Upload this ZIP file to WordPress to install and activate the theme.
2. **`seyarat-child.zip`** – The basic Seyarat child theme, recommended if you plan to make custom code changes while keeping the parent theme update-safe.
3. **`Documentation`** – Contains the theme documentation and setup instructions.
4. **`Plugins`** – Includes the plugins required or recommended for use with the Seyarat theme.

## 3. WordPress Hosting

Choosing the right hosting provider depends on factors such as server location, pricing, performance, and available services. Since hosting can directly affect your website’s speed, stability, and overall experience, we strongly recommend selecting a hosting provider that is optimized for WordPress.

We are often asked which hosting provider works best with our theme. While we can suggest suitable options, the final choice should always be based on your specific requirements, budget, and project goals.

A reliable WordPress hosting provider can offer optimized server configurations, better performance, and additional features that help your website load faster and run more smoothly.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://seyarat.gitbook.io/seyarat-docs/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
