Hi.
I download the update of the theme. However, when I went to “Update file” in the appearence>editor of WP, it told me the follow message:
The requested resource
/wp-admin/theme-editor.php
does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.
How can I fix the problem and update the theme? Thanks a lot!

I read that if I did change to the theme will be not possible to update the theme without losing the changes. I did some changes in the theme (as you can see in the previous topic started by me), mainly about css. In this case, updating the theme, I will lose the changes and I should make them again?
Thanks

Hello ffarci,

If you have some changes to the code and if these are not made in the child theme, the new theme update will overwrite all of these and your changes will be lost. To be safe, you should make a full backup to your database and for your old theme and after the update, you should make them again but please notice that for each update this case will happen, sorry! If the theme allowed to make these changes in the child theme, you should follow this method to ease your work. For more information about child theme support, please consult our useful guide here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/

Thanks for your understanding!
