Prepare your workbench

Put your website in maintenance mode
- Login to your Drupal installation as administration user
- Navigate to admin/config/development/maintenance
- Enable the "Put site into maintenance mode" option

- Locate our theme folder in your temporary installation. Usually at [sites/all/themes/mobileplus]
- Locate our theme folder in your drupal 7 site. Usually at [sites/all/themes/mobileplus]
