    I am using a child theme. I need to update the parent theme to the latest version. How do I do this?
    I just want to make sure I will not loose my child theme files.

    Thank you.

    Actually, exactly how do I tell which version of the Andrina-Pro theme I currently have installed? Under 'Themes', it have my child theme as active, but then has the Andrina-Pro as inactive with the version at the top of the image as 3.2.2. When I go to update themes, it indicates that no themes I have installed have an update available.

    I followed the directions exactly but had some issues with icons that I had added to the images folder. I was able to go to the history and restore them on my hosting environment. Is there a better place that I should place my added icons so that they are not lost during the next upgrade?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    All folder will lost at the time of update, so make a copy of important files and images and save them any where to make backup.(make backup of important files)

    It will resolve your issue.

    Thanks & Regards
