Updating Newspaper

Posted in: Newspaper

We’ve been using Newspaper 6.6 for several months without any problems. We’ve received notices of updates but I haven’t gone ahead with any of them yet. My question is, what will be changed if I update from 6.6 to the current version? We’ve made many configuration changes, such as colors, ads, posts, and such and don’t want to lose any of that. Can I update without messing up any of that? I’m also not using a child theme, does that matter?

Hi Greg,
Those settings will not get lost at all as they are kept in the database. The only thing that will be lost is customization. Custom code added to the theme files. The files get replaced in an update. If you have no custom code added in the theme files, you can update your theme without problems by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ Do a back-up though to be on the safe side.
Thank you!
