Ollie Pro Dashboard
Learn about the Ollie dashboard and how to get started with your first block theme website.
Whenever you set up a new WordPress site, there’s always a dozen different tasks that you have to complete while jumping around the WordPress admin. Creating pages, designing layouts, setting up your brand assets, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
Well, you don’t have to do that anymore! The Ollie theme Setup wizard is a one-of-a-kind onboarding experience that automates all of those pesky tasks and handles them in one streamlined experience.
The setup wizard will help you change common settings, set up your logo and brand colors, and automatically create pixel-perfect pages for you with just a few clicks. The setup wizard isn’t just for new sites. You can use the wizard to quickly generate pages on existing sites as well.
From your WordPress dashboard, you can find the Ollie setup wizard by going to Appearance → Ollie or by following the pop-up upon theme activation.

Theme Setup
Ollie Pro Setup Wizard
Create a beautiful, blazing-fast website in minutes with the Ollie Setup Wizard.
The goal of the Ollie Setup Wizard is to help WordPress users zoom through a new site setup with the Ollie theme and abstract away those annoying and disconnected setup steps we have to do for every site.
Using a blazing-fast React interface, we can cut down the time it takes to set up a site to just a few minutes. Instead of jumping around the admin, creating pages manually, applying designs with patterns, and then assigning those pages in the WordPress settings, we can just do that for you in a few steps. 😍
The Site Wizard is entirely optional, just like the settings within each step. For example, if you’re not ready to set up your logo, you can just skip it and set it up later in your header instead.
- Your Brand – This step lets you easily set up your sites branding such as your color palette, your specific brand color, your logo, and site icon. If you don’t have a site icon, we’ve added a fun emoji picker you can use instead.
- Create Pages – This step helps you create basic pages like homepage and blog, and will automatically apply the related pattern to the page for you.
- Homepage – One of the first steps you do on each new WordPress site is determine whether your homepage is going to be a blog or a static page with a homepage design. This step helps you quickly select a blog or static page and shows you a preview of it.
- Finish – After all steps are complete, the Setup Wizard will show you several handy links to take your next steps such as viewing your site, viewing docs, creating a child theme, and more.
