Updating X pro to pro

Hi,

I’ve read https://theme.co/apex/forums/topic/x-pro-is-now-pro-what-you-need-to-know-and-do/

Please can you clarify the following;

Will I experience issues if I update X pro from Version: 1.1.0 to the latest Version: 1.1.1?

Also, I’m using the child theme so I’m a little confused about the order of tasks?

Do I…?

  1. upload new pro theme
  2. Activate new theme
  3. Activate existing child theme
  4. update the “Template” line in your style.css from xpro to pro.
  5. Delete old X pro theme?

Thanks
Paul

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in! Please go through our detailed guide on knowledge base section (https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/x-to-pro-conversion/104).

You may experience issues due to your current site setup and the customizations that you already added to X pro. We strongly recommend to take a full backup of your site before proceeding.

Thanks!

H,

Sorry for the confusion but I’m switching from x pro to pro NOT x to pro.

Hi There,

My apologies for that. Your steps are correct.

You just need to download Pro from your dashboard. Then, install it just as you would any other WordPress theme. Now you can Activate Pro, and then X Pro can safely be deleted.

If you have a child theme, you can simply change the template line in the style.css file as xpro to pro.

Thanks!

No worries, can I just clarify at what stage in the steps I activate the child theme and change the style.css?

Hi There,

After activating Pro, you can then change the style.css of your child theme and activate the child theme.

Hope that’s clear.
