Mia - Getting Started

Welcome! We're so excited for you to start building your new website with Mia for Kadence. 🎉 This guide will walk you through the first steps and point you to everything you'll need along the way.

Note about the Mia theme

The Mia theme is a bit different from some of our other themes in that it includes two distinct theme versions:

When following the Kadence – Install your theme & import demo tutorial, you will select either mia-travel.zip or mia-food.zip at the Upload Theme step.

Please note that while you are welcome to install both themes, only one theme can be active on your site at once.

FAQ

Will I have access to the Block Collection from both themes?

Yes! You will see two Block Collections in your Design Library: Mia Travel and Mia Food. You are welcome to mix and match blocks from both — you aren't limited to the blocks from your selected theme version!

Do I have to be a Travel blogger or Food blogger?

Definitely not. Our theme demos are simply a starting point — it's up to you to customize and tailor your site to suit your niche + style preferences. All text, images, and so on can be modified. Check out our Lookbook to see how others have customized Mia!

Can I install Mia Travel on one site and Mia Food on another?

Yes, as long as you adhere to our licensing policy, you can certainly install the theme on more than one site.

1. Install & Import the Theme Demo

Before your site will look like the demo, you'll need to install the theme and import the demo content. This process will automatically install necessary plugins and set up all of your pages, menus, and widgets.

After importing, your site will look just like the Mia demo, and then you can start customizing!

2. Customize Your Site

Once your theme is installed and the demo content is imported, it's time for the fun part: making it your own!

Here are some articles to get you started:

3. Add Your Content

Now that everything's set up, you can start adding your own content and images. Each section of the demo can be easily edited right inside the Block Editor — just click and customize!
