WordPress: Themes

Install WordPress theme

Install a theme on an existing WordPress installation.

Provide the WordPress installation (software) identifier in the path. It can be obtained from GET /api/hosting/v1/wordpress/installations (the id field).

When the theme is one of the Hostinger themes (hostinger-blog, hostinger-affiliate-theme, hostinger-ai-theme), the optional palette, layout, and font fields are forwarded to the custom installer (defaults: palette1, layout1, default). For any other theme they are ignored.

This operation is asynchronous: a successful response only means the install job has been queued, not that the theme is ready.

Layout identifier. Only applied when the theme is a Hostinger theme; the default is used when omitted.
