Hello,

I am currently on v6.5 of Newspaper theme on my website with a lot of Custom work being done and core theme code files being modified.

How can I update to latest version of the theme i.e. v6.6.4 as I have missed the middle version. Can i directly update the files to v6.6.4 or I have to update step by step to subsequent version ?

If i have to update through the middle version please provide the necessary files for the same as through Envato market place we can only download the latest theme version only.

Please revert back !

Hello rishab55555,

Before doing an update, I recommend doing a backup for your customization because in the latest version of the theme were changed a lot of core files and will be overwritten and you have to spare a bit of time to adjust all your settings to the new version of the theme. You have to do update directly to the latest version without any intermediate pathways.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the message!

Hello Catalin,

Can you share with me the patch files from v6.5 to v6.6.3 so that I can step wise move the versions and then apply the patch to get upgraded to latest theme version 6.6.4 ?

Hi,

Unfortunately we cannot provide the patch files and it is recommended to use these files only if you update from the previous version. We had users who tried to update the theme like that and they had issues after and they had to do a clean install. I suggest to do the same and for future if you want to use the patch use it but only if you use the previous version.

Thanks!
