Theme Update
To upgrade your theme to the latest version you can do in the following ways:
- If you have an active support package, you will get a notification in your WordPress dashboard about new theme version. Simply click update the theme. That’s all.
- You can do that manually. In this case you need to download the latest theme ZIP file in your ThemeForest Dashboard. Here are step-by-step instructions what you need to do:
Uploading and Replacing the Existing Theme (Manual Update)
- Before getting started we recommend to back up your existing database and your current theme (you can use the 3rd party backup WordPress plugins). Since we’re replacing and updating theme files, there’s a chance that something can go wrong, so it’s better to keep it safe and have a backup.
- While using this method, please navigate to Appearance -> Themes -> Add New and upload a new version of a theme with the same name.
- You will be asked if you want to replace the old theme version with the new one, please choose to replace with the new one. The theme will be updated immediately.
- After a successful theme update, please open your WordPress website and check if everything is OK. Don’t forget to update the required plugins if there are.
