The same way how you install it the first time you bought the theme,for updates you just have to overwrite the old files with the new ones from ur FTP …Smh

@marki
see the theme docs, as it shows you how to do the update:

When you update the theme (as tagdiv are doing often), I usually re-install the theme by uninstalling the old version and installing the new one (of course I have to change the theme for a moment to twenty fourteen). As long as I do not touch anything it seem to be okay, but, could it be a problem? I think it is easier than using ftp o through the plugin you mention on the doc.But if it can break my site I would rather learn how to use FTP or use the plugin as is shown here https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-automatically-update-newspaper-theme/

I’ll wait for your answer and I will update it then.

Thanks

Should we install the booster and social plugins again? Anything changed with those?

Check the changelog files in the main download; but I didn’t see changes to them. I usually over-write them just to be safe.

Hi,

Thanks Christopher!

@Jorge

Please make sure you make a backup of your current theme and if something goes wrong you can revert back to your previous version. Regarding the update you can use any way, some errors could occur in any way but as long you have a backup you can get back at your previous version and then give it another try.

Thanks
