Update theme via FTP video

I updated to 9.7.1 two weeks ago and there was a video of how to do it via FTP. I can’t find that video and need it to update to 9.7.2. I have this link https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/ but it doesn’t have the video for FTP.

Thanks,
Stacey

Hello !

Unfortunately that video was not working for the updates newer than 9.7.1 At the moment we do not have a video tutorial on how to update the theme via FTP but we are working on it. If you follow this steps it should be fairly easy:

Step 1 – Open the folder “Themes” located in “Your Site’s Name/Wp-Content/Themes” and backup your Newspaper Theme folder by saving it somewhere on your computer. You can also choose to delete it. Your content won’t be lost, but please note that if you have any theme code modifications, they will be lost. You have to reapply them after the update is over.
Step 2 – Connect your FTP account using Filezilla. Navigate to the WordPress theme directory within Filezilla (“Your Site’s Name/Wp-Content/Themes”).
Step 3 – Download the newest version of the Newspaper Theme from ThemeForest.
Step 4 – Unzip the “Newspaper-tf” archive file and the “Newspaper.zip” file.
Step 5 – Extract “Newspaper.zip” file.
Step 6 – Delete the existing Newspaper theme folder
Step 7 – Drag and drop the new “Newspaper Theme” folder into “Your Site’s Name/Wp-Content/Themes”. Your content will not get removed! Update all of your plugins, for more information regarding this visit this links: https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/ ; https://tagdiv.com/how-to-install-plugins-and-update-plugins/

Thank you !
