Hi guys and Thank you again for #1 theme!
I have a question about the theme change / update.
I just mad a lot of change in CSS and some functionality in the footer header and product page, Title names etc.
1-How I can keep my theme customization after migrate it to an other server and after the future theme update?
2-How to export / import the content ( Slider, Product pictures and data ) and use it again
3-How to keep it after future theme update.
Thanks you sir,
Hello,
1. You should make changes in Theme Options > Custom CSS or in your child theme, but never edit original style.css file. Before migrating to other server you need create a back up of the site files and database https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups .
2. To export the content create a back up and then upload your files to new server and restore the database https://codex.wordpress.org/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup .
3. All changes are saved after theme update, if you make them in child theme or in custom.css.
More information about backups you can get at your hosting provider.
Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
Thanks jack for your quick response.
1-I mad change in style.css . so can i past the whole style.css lines in custom css ?
2-What about the Functions and some pages changes after the theme update ?
Thank you
Hello Sara,
1) yes, you can move your css customization(but not whole style.css file) from style.css to Theme Options > Custom CSS.
2) All customization made to theme files may be lost on theme update because theme files will be overwritten.

Hi and thank you for your response
I would love to know what is the solution for answer number 2:
2) All customization made to theme files may be lost on theme update because theme files will be overwritten.
– of course Is not to not update the theme.
Thank you again
Hello,
2. If you make changes in Theme Options or in Woocommerce settings, or in pages in WP Dashboard > Pages section, then your modifications won’t be lost after theme update.

Ok I understand
All customization made to theme files may be lost on theme update because theme files will be overwritten. Unless I did it from Woo-commerce or theme setting page
By the fact is I did some edit from Appearance > Edit
So is there any way to update the specific code/ page which will be changed after the theme update
As always, Thank you sir
Hello,
You have to update whole theme.
You need make changes in child theme if you want to edit some theme files.
