    Hello,

    We have remove that button from there because of some security reasons.
    Now, you can download theme from your members area and upload it.
    Login here: http://inkthemes.com/members/member/index


    Thanks & Regards

    Thanks for the update.
    Can you please send instruction on how to install update.
    I have looked at video on how to install a new theme which is no problem
    but the update is a issue.

    What i tried was from the appearance tab I clicked on themes.Located the
    geocraft theme.

    Here's where am stuck.I tried to add new theme but install failed.

    So please send instructions on how to fix.

    Thank You for your service.

    Hi Support,

    The delete button on my geocraft theme is not visible.Please view two attachments provided.

    One shows my theme dashboard with no delete button and no side bar to move page up or down.Tried to
    move page up and down with keyboard arrows but no help.

    Next on the same screen on top left handside you'll see two arrows left and right arrow.Clicked on highlighted
    arrow to the right but no help.See attachment.

    Has WP resigned to their advantage ?

    Anway please help.Thanks

    Hello,

    This is because you have activated the GeoCraft theme.
    WordPress do not have the option to delete while theme is active.
    So firstly activate any other theme ( Twenty Eleven Theme) in your dashboard and after that click on the GeoCraft Theme and then you will get delete option there.

    Or

    You can also update the GeoCraft theme without deleting the older version by the instruction given below.
    In latest downloaded theme from members area, You will get theme zip file, Extract it and rename the folder name (like "GeoCrafttheme-1") and then make its zip file and then upload it from the upload section (Appearance > Themes >Install Themes > Upload ) in your dashboard.
