Version 17.3 and wordpress 5.0.2

Filipczyk · January 2019

Hallo all!

My website is running version 17.3. Slowly but surely I have to think in migrating to wordpress 5.0.x. How do I have to do this? Is there an update to current betheme version nessessary? If yes, do I have to pay the full licence fee or is there any discount on it? Or is there any other possibility for the new wordpress version?

Thanks and have a nice day

Hi,

If you want to update your wordpress to the 5.0.2, then it's very important to update BeTheme to the newest version, because simply it will not work properly.

Here is an instruction on how to update the theme:
http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/documentation/#general
Theme updates will not delete your content unless you have changed the
files directly in which case we suggest using a child theme.
We also recommend creating a backup file.
Please remove the theme completely from your theme folder and install a
fresh copy. Do not overwrite files.

thanks

Hi there,

I have now the problem, that there is no child theme in use. Is there any possibility to create afterwards a child theme? Changes I did directly with InlineCSS.

So, if this all is solved, do I have to pay the full licence fee for the newest Betheme Version?

Thanks!

Hi,
If you bought the BeTheme earlier, then you don't have to pay for the update.
Once bought BeTheme allows you to update the theme without any free/price.

It will be hard to find the Child Theme of BeTheme for this version.
I suggest to download via FTP whole betheme, then update your theme and install Child Theme.
Then apply the changes in the Child Theme.

Thanks
