What's included | JormunTL docs

JormunTL is a theme plus four plugins. The plugins ship inside the theme and are installed from JormunTL ▸ Install Plugins after you activate it. Activating the theme does not install them.

	What it does	Needed?
JormunTL	The theme: every page a reader sees	Yes
JormunTL Core	Novels, chapters, announcements, genres, statuses, the URLs they live at, and the records readers submit	Yes, always
JormunTL Commerce	The coin ledger, the transactions table, what a chapter costs and who has paid for it	Only if you charge for anything
JormunTL EPUB Importer	Bulk imports .epub files as the chapters of a novel, with numbering, scheduling and lock rules	Only if you have ePubs
JormunTL Transfer	Exports and imports a whole site as one archive, and migrates a Madara or Fictioneer library in place	Only when moving

The Install Plugins screen, listing the four companion plugins with an install button beside each

All four are installed from JormunTL ▸ Install Plugins, which is also where you can see which are already active.

Core is not optional. The theme has nothing to display without it: no novels, no chapters, no genres.

Commerce is genuinely optional. A site that publishes everything free, or that earns through ads and support links, never needs it, and leaving it uninstalled removes the whole Monetization menu rather than leaving it there switched off.

What you also need

WordPress on your own hosting. See hosting recommendations.
A way to send email. WordPress cannot do this reliably on its own, and several things break quietly without it. See email delivery.
A licence key, entered in JormunTL ▸ License, for updates.

What you do not need

No page builder. No separate membership plugin. No WooCommerce. The homepage is built from the Customizer, and payments go straight to Stripe, PayPal or Ko-fi.
