Problems with the change of Newspaper for Newsmag theme

Posted in: Newsmag

Hello

I changed template Newspaper for Newsmag on one of my website and I :

1. I can’t remove old, Newspaper theme from Appearance –> Themes. I see statement: “Deletion failed: The requested theme does not exist.” Active now is Newsmag.

2. Despite the theme change, some of elements remained same as in the previous theme Newspaper. For example post content font and main menu size/fonts (or it looks different because of no change of fonts).
Default fonts are set everywhere.

How can I fix this problem ?

Best regards,
Marek

Try deleting via FTP.

Clear all caching if used by site/plugin/CDN.

Clear your web browser cache/history.

Resave permalinks.

Clear transients with wp-optimize.

Hi

Please make sure that you to a clean install for the theme and best ways is via ftp: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-install-via-ftp/ Before that install process deactivate all plugins, except Visual; Composer, and after the install is complete clear the caches and reset the cdn if you’re using.

Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!

Hi

Should I remove Newsmag theme before reinstall via FTP ?

Hi

To install the theme you need to make sure that in wp-content/themes folder is not another folder which contains an older version of the theme. You can’t have two Newsmag folders in themes folder so yes you need to deleted the old install.

Thanks!

Hi again,

I did everything what you advised. I turn off all plugins apart form VC, install theme via FTP, then switched on WP Super Cache and deleted all caches. I tried it twice, with no result. I still have old fonts from Newspaper in post content.
