Hi there,

I received a message on 09th January, inviting me to download updates for the Newsmag theme. However, the download link provided on the email would mean that I should download the whole theme. The probleme is that we have made several changes, including in the functions, and I am afraid that any full download would mess everything.

Is there a way to download only the updates ?

Thanks in advanced.

Hi

The theme becomes active only when it’s uploaded on your server via FTP or via WordPress as it’s indicated in our install guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ However to keep your customizations you can use the patch provided with the theme. This patch contains only the modified files from one version to another, so you can simply upload only those files on your server via FTP.
Before making any changes please make sure that you do a full backup of your current theme installation and WordPress: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups

Thanks!
