What about themes autoupdate?

At this moment themes from ThemeForest cannot update automatically like themes from WordPress library. (Well there is an API and even a ready-made plugin for that… but it’s still very raw and buggy.) But we are working hard to implement autoupdate feature in one of the nearest updates.

So in order to update theme, you need to:

  1. backup your current theme folder;
  2. rename/delete older version of theme;
  3. install newest version of theme.

How to update the theme?

All our theme updates are available in your ThemeForest.com profile for free: simply redownload it in “Downloads” tab.

At the first step we advise you to rename your current theme folder to something like: …/wp-content/themes/dt-THEME_NAME-old/. It will help you to save custom changes of the template.

At the next stage you need to install the theme in the usual way.

How to make the theme load faster?

  1. Select “Static CSS” option in Theme Options >> Misc (for Nimble, PressMate and PurePress themes).
  2. Install cache plugin.
  3. If possible, decrease size of your images.
  4. Deactivate needless plugins.
  5. Decrease number of items (portfolios, albums, catalogs, photos) per page.

What cache plugin do you suggest to use?

We would like to advise you to install W3 Total Cache plugin.
