Hi

I’ve been using Newpaper theme for ages (since ver 4 I think).

The update to 8.5 looks daunting to me, particularly since I’m still using ver 6

How would I find a Newspaper Theme expert who could do the update for me?

Any clues or URL would be helpful.

Cheers
Rick

Hi,

Much has changes since the version you are using. WordPress and theme should always be kept up to date. Each update will provide improvements.
We do not have a theme install department unfortunately, but you could try it yourself.
You could update the theme using this guide
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The FTP method would be the most recommended in the matter. Make a backup before, it is always recommended to do so.
Update WordPress (if you did not already) as well as the theme included plugins. Let us know if you should encounter any problems.
A thing to note is that the tagDiv composer plugin will be activated by default when you make the update. Visual composer specific elements may not display properly, deactivate the tagDiv composer if this happens.

Thanks
