    I am currently still using version 3.0 of this theme and would like to update to version 4.1. What is the best way to do this? Unfortunately I didn’t use the child theme. Am I in trouble or is there a work around here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, download the latest version from ThemeForest and install it in the regular way. You will find instructions in the package.

    Thanks

    Hi, thank you for your response. I did download and installed the new version. I didn’t activate yet rather I did a live preview. Right away I could tell that every page I’ve created was in the global nav. In my current version I have everything organized in drop down menus. I did look at the instructions but the ones I found were very short. Am I looking in the wrong place.

    This is what I found:
    – Install new version as a different theme to backup previous version.

    – This new version has a different version number and different folder name.
    So don’t change the folder name and install it, WordPress will
    install this version as a different theme but your previous settings
    still stayed.

    – The translation files are located in the languages folder under theme folder.
    Copy your translation files ( .po and .mo ) from previous version of the theme.

    What do I need to do to make a smooth transition? Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks for all the help!

    Hi, just activate the new version then go to Menus page, re-select your created menu from Menu Locations and click save.

    Thanks man, any ideas about the contact page? It’s blank. No map, no text, no contact form and no NAP (Name, Address, Phone number). Is that another quick fix. Thank you.
