    Hi,
    apart from "latest blog posts" section (pre-designed by my Blackbird theme on the home page), i made a separate "Blog" section in the main menu bar.
    I realized lately that when you click on it, you can only see some (9) latest posts. There is no "Read other posts" or "Read archive" button, so my blog visitors can't really see my blog archive, and i really need them to be able to.
    Is there a solution to this please?

    Hi, thank you very much for getting back to me so fast!).
    Piyush, when i was setting up my blog i made a nmb of small but important adjustments and changes into the theme code with your help, so if i download the new version it will be all lost. Can't do that.
    Gourav, went to see the widgets - "Archives" show only the last month posts and i need the earlier ones.
    "Recent posts" won't work for the same reason, they are too recent.

    Is there any other way to do that please?

    Thank you!

    Hello,

    Your theme option content and css code in the Custom CSS section will remain intact while Theme update but if you have make changes in php files (like header.php, sidebar.php ,footer.php..etc.) of theme then you will loss your changes while Theme update.

    To avoid this loss you can use child Theme.
    Follow the link given below for more details
    http://www.inkthemes.com/httpwww-in...rdpress-a-way-to-save-themes-modification/02/

    After creating child Theme and make all your required changes in the php file of child theme and then update your Parent Theme.

    You can download the upgrade version of BlackBird theme from members area (http://inkthemes.com/members/member/index) and update your theme.

    Follow the instruction in the link given below to update your theme.
