Will the new version keep existing things in place? Is it seamless? When I upgraded last time, it took a long time to figure out how to get the stretched photo back at the top of my web page. It did not transition that.
Also, when I upload the new theme it says it already exists. I don’t want to delete old to install new. Shouldn’t it accept the new theme so you can switch after the files are loaded? I’m not a developer so please keep it simple.
Hi,
It would say if already exist if there already is a Newspaper theme in the WordPress themes folder. The update guide specifies all the required steps depending on update method
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The update should not cause any problems now, there were a few issues but they are fixed now. Re-download the theme if you downloaded just after the update was released, then install it.
The old theme has to be replaced with the new one. If you made modifications to the theme files directly they will be lost as the old theme gets replaced.
Thanks
