Before now, i currently have Newspaper 7 theme installed on my website https://www.livingrightandhealthy.com/ and i purchased the latest version of the theme which is Newspaper 8 and whenever i try to install it, i get the following error message “Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

Destination folder already exists. /home/u435693484/public_html/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/

Delete old theme folder.
Upload new theme via FTP.

You can’t over write existing folder with new theme folder; it’s an entirely new theme.

Hi,

Please check the theme update guide and useful advice
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The guide explains in detail how to update the theme by FTP. For safety please make a full backup before updating, in case of problems you can fall back to working state.

Thanks
