How to update theme to new version

We periodically release theme updates to add functionality, fix bugs, or keep up to date with the most recent phpBB version.

The update method depends on whether you have edited the theme files or not.

I have not edited the theme files:

  1. Re-download the theme from Themeforest (this will get the most recent version)
  2. Extract to your desktop
  3. Copy the new theme files
  4. Overwrite the existing theme files in your phpBB installation
  5. Purge cache

You might also need clear your browser cache (Ctrl + F5 on Windows, or CMD+R on Mac)
