    I need to update my outdated blanco theme but I don’t want to make any mistakes. Wondering if there’s an easier way or is the current way still FTP?

    How difficult will this be?
    I need the latest version to match the latest woocommerce update.

    Any help appreciated,
    Thank You!

    Hello,

    The best way to update the theme is via FTP.
    Before update delete “woocommerce” folder in the directory wp-content/themes/legenda/ and it’ll be reuploaded from a new theme package.
    Also update all required plugins https://www.8theme.com/download-plugins/ .

    Don’t forget to create back up of your files and database before starting update process!


    (it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).

    Hi, thanks so much for uploading the video.

    How do you get to FTP and once inside where do I go to get to my blanco theme?
    What do you recommend?

    Thank You

    Hello,

    You should ask your hosting provider for FTP login details and how to connect.
    Once you’re logged in you need go to wp-content/themes directory where “blanco” folder is located and follow the instruction to update the theme.

    Hello!

    It looks like I was able to update successfully.

    Only problem that arises is that when I try the drop down menu for variation listings (no default selected) it doesn’t show a variation.

    For example in the link provided below it has to options but on the drop down none shows up.

    I am running woocommerce 2.4.6 and the latest version of WordPress Billie if I’m not mistaken.

    Thank You

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello,

    I’ve recreated your variations and added attributes in Products > Attributes section.
    Also I’ve added this code in functions.php file:

    function custom_wc_ajax_variation_threshold( $qty, $product ) {
	return 100;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_ajax_variation_threshold', 'custom_wc_ajax_variation_threshold', 100, 2 );

    You can read about it here:

    Hi,

    So I have to create a new attribute for everyone all my variable listings in Products > Attributes?

    Is this the new requirement for WooCommerce 2.4+?

    Thanks

    I’m only asking because before I never had to do this, just did it straight from edit listing and didn’t have to do the products > attributes.

    I saw the video but it seems time consuming especially for a listing of 20+ variation.

    Thank You

    Hello,

    Please update the theme to the latest version.
    Before update delete “woocommerce” folder in the directory wp-content/themes/blanco/ and it’ll be reuploaded from a new theme package.

    (it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).

    After that check variations.

    Yes, so like I said.

    I need to go to products > attributes…then create new attributes one by one yes?
