I've been working with the free version of the Infoway theme and customizing it a bit as I went. Eventually, we decided to upgrade to the pro version, made the purchase and received the .zip file of the theme. I installed the zipped theme file, crossed my fingers and activated it...and lost all of the customizing I'd already done. So I quickly reverted back to the free theme just to make sure that nothing had been lost completely. How do I upgrade from the free version to the pro version while KEEPING our existing customizations. I'd dearly love to avoid having to re-do them all. Thanks in advance!
Hello, Follow the link given below http://www.inkthemes.com/how-to-update-a-premium-theme-by-inkthemes/05/ I hope it will help's you.
Thanks for that link. Seems a bit of a kludge, though. Have you - or would you - considered coding an upgrade function into your pro themes? One that would import the custom CSS/images/text/settings from the free versions? An easier upgrade path like that would make doing so a much more attractive option for folks who might otherwise be on the fence about whether or not to spend the money.
Hello, Free version theme and Pro version themes have different fields, So data saved in free theme is not automatically copy at pro theme, So you have to manually copy the theme option data from free theme and paste it in the pro theme, But in Pro to Pro update theme option data is saved and there is no need to copy it.
