A premium WordPress theme for travel agencies and tour operators, with package/activity/destination management, a multi-step booking and payment flow, lead-capture enquiries, a built-in admin dashboard, and one-click demo content.

== Description ==

WanderLux turns WordPress into a full travel-agency website: holiday packages, activities, and destinations are managed as custom post types with their own galleries, itineraries, pricing, and reviews. Visitors can search by destination, travel month, and holiday type, browse curated homepage sections, and either submit a quick enquiry or (Pro edition) complete a full multi-step booking with payment-method selection.

The theme ships in two editions:

**Free** — All core templates, archives, single package/activity/destination pages, blog, hero search, "Plan My Trip" lead-capture, WhatsApp floating button, and a focused admin dashboard (Enquiries, Settings, Demo Data installer).

**Pro** — Everything in Free, plus: the full multi-step Booking & Payment flow with automatic confirmation emails and a booking-reference lookup page; a Wishlist for visitors to save and compare packages; an admin Bookings manager and revenue/traffic Analytics dashboard with charts; a Newsletter exit-intent popup and Subscribers list; Google Analytics 4 / Google Tag Manager integration; and a white-labelled footer (no "Powered by WanderLux" credit).

== Installation ==

1. In your WordPress admin, go to Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme.
2. Choose the WanderLux-Free.zip or WanderLux-Pro.zip file and click Install Now.
3. Activate the theme.
4. Go to WanderLux > Demo Data in the admin menu to install sample packages, activities, destinations, and pages (optional but recommended).
5. Go to WanderLux > Settings to add your contact details, social links, currency, and (Pro) analytics IDs.
6. Assign a navigation menu under Appearance > Menus, or use the auto-created demo menu.

If your host's "Upload Theme" uploader rejects the zip (some hosts block zips containing PHP files), extract the zip locally and upload the resulting WanderLux folder directly into wp-content/themes/ via FTP or your host's File Manager.

== Custom Post Types ==

* wl_package     — Holiday packages (/packages/)
* wl_activity    — Standalone activities (/activities/)
* wl_destination — Destination guides (/destinations/)
* wl_testimonial — Customer reviews
* wl_team        — Team / agent profiles

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does the Free edition include online booking? =

No — Free uses a lead-capture "Plan My Trip" enquiry form. The full multi-step booking flow with payment-method selection and automatic confirmation is a Pro feature.

= Can I upgrade from Free to Pro without losing content? =

Yes. Packages, activities, destinations, pages, and settings are all stored in the WordPress database independently of the theme files — switching the theme zip does not affect your content.

= Where do I configure currency and contact details? =

WanderLux > Settings in the WordPress admin menu.
