wp theme install

Installs one or more themes.

OPTIONS

<theme|zip|url>... : One or more themes to install. Accepts a theme slug, the path to a local zip file, or a URL to a remote zip file.

[--version=<version>] : If set, get that particular version from wordpress.org, instead of the stable version.

[--force] : If set, the command will overwrite any installed version of the theme, without prompting for confirmation.

[--activate] : If set, the theme will be activated immediately after install.

[--insecure] : Retry downloads without certificate validation if TLS handshake fails. Note: This makes the request vulnerable to a MITM attack.
