Theme update problems

Hi,
I have the Newsmag theme in my website from july 2018.
My previous webmaster had never updated the theme since then.
I’ve just try to update it in a website clone (backup from host) and the consequences are very bad. The website design result has nothing to with the original design. I had to do a recovery backup to leave it to the previous state.
I know that the problem is such a jump from version 8.7.5 to 10.3.1.
Is there any option to download all versions since the and update the theme one by one?
Thanks

Hi,

I think that you are using the Newspaper theme, because the last version Of Newsmag is v4.9.3
Also Newspaper 10.3.2 is most like a new theme, therefore the update from v 8.7.5 will need a lot for adjustment, that were made step by step in each update.
The best and fast way to make the updated was as you tried, on a staging website
How to Update the Newspaper Theme for WordPress -> https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/ also if the website was made using a child theme, you need to deactivate it. Most probably then the website was made using WPBakery (Visual composer), if yes, please let tagDiv Cloud Library disable -> https://i.imgur.com/BSFSi5N.png
Also for all other problems, let us know and we’ll help to fix them, step by step.

Thank you!
