Hi there!!

We aré using the Newspaper Theme (www.pacmac.es) and we have received a few days ago an email announcing the new theme update.

Before we do it we would like to know if that update is going to respect our current plugins and theme configuration.

It is the first time we have received an update outside of the WordPress updating tab and we don’t wanna screw our site.

Which one is the best way to do the update?? Via FTP or the WordPress installation.

Thanks

Hi,

We recommend to update the theme via FTP(please make a backup of your current theme instalation) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/
Also if you are using previous version(4.6.2) you can use the patch and copy only files that were updated and then update the plugins that come with the theme’s files(visual composer,social counter…) from /plugins folder .
Regarding the plugins and theme customization – the styling options you’ve set in the WordPress Theme Customize or options from Theme Panel – those options should not be affected by updating your theme, only if you have custom modification to the theme’s files you will need to re-add them as when you update the theme these files will be overwritten.

Thanks!
