best way to update theme and keep theme customization
Hi,
Please let me know what is the best way to update be theme (I have child theme installed too) and keep all current files customizations on theme.
Currently I have be theme 20.3 version and want to update to latest update.
Let me know the process? Do I have to compare all files or is there more simple way?
Thanks

Hi,
First of all, I suggest creating a backup of your website before updating it with the Duplicator plugin.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
When you do that, you can proceed to update regularly. If you encounter any issues after the update, follow the steps from the following article: https://support.muffingroup.com/faq/troubleshoot-guide/. If you find that a child theme is a root cause, you must contact your web developer to adjust the files to work with the newest version.
Best regards
Thanks, what does it mean "if you find that a child theme is a root cause" ?
I mean if you encounter any issues on your website that come from the customizations you made in the files (child theme), you should contact your web developer to correct these issues.
Best regards
