update from 1.4 to 1.7

How can one update the theme from older version, such as 1.4, to the latest version, such as 1.7? There is no automatic update available, and when trying to upload to .zip file manually, it results in an error ("directory already exists")

 

Before uploading the theme

Follow the steps given below

1) Go to style.css present in your theme directory and change its name

Sending image for reference



2) Also rename theme directory.

 

To tell you the truth, Gourav, your instructions were not very clear.

I did find these instructions thought: http://www.inkthemes.com/how-to-update-a-premium-theme-by-inkthemes/05/

Also, a more general instructions for those wanting to change customized WP themes: http://wpmu.org/how-to-upgrade-a-wordpress-theme-even-if-its-customized/

 

BTW, how to change these in the footer of the theme:

Hello Bagurov,

You can easily change the footer text using the widgets. Just visit WordPress Dashbaord->Appearance->Widgets

and you can see the First Footer widget, Second Footer Widget and Third Footer Widget right corner of the screen. Just drag and drop the text widgets and you can write anything you like in text widget and just save it. You will find next text in the footer section of your website.

I think this can help you get rid of your problem. If you still have some trouble using widget, Do let me know i will send you a video for that.

Thanks

OK, I see. Thank you. I have follow-up questions:

1) You have the Instagram widget. How about adding Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook and G+ ? Is there a nice way to integrate these social media's as well?

2) How about YouTube video's? How can they be integrated into the template?

3) How to center the copyright notice in the bottom footer? Right now it's aligned to the right.

4) Regarding the logo - how to add an ALT text to it? In general, how to add ALT texts to any of the images in the template?

thank you.

 

Would greatly appreciate assistance on the above 4 questions. Thank you.

 

1) For social icons open "sidebar-footer.php" and add code given below as shown in image.

Code:

 <li><a href="your link address"><img src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/Your image address" />&nbsp;&nbsp;Join Us On Google+</a> </li>

add same code for others.



2) You can add embed code of your youtube video in the theme options for front page.

3) Increase padding according to your requirement

Code:

.copyright a {
padding-right: 300px;
}

4) For logo 'alt' text go to the header.php and make changes as shown in image.



For other images open front-page.php and add alt text from there.
