Moved: Reply To: Upgrade from Free to Pro version

[troy curfman]

So i installed the free version, and changed the demo sliders words and said hmm i cant do what i want with the theme so i bought the pro version.
now i activated the new pro version i did not copy over the free version in the root of themes in wp. so two folders, free and pro. i activated pro and lost the changes i made to the demo stuff.
is there something I’m missing because Now none of the sliders are showing at all!!!
im a 13 veteran of working on themes and something isn’t right.

Hi Troy,

When you activate the free theme you get back to where you were. Activating Pro doesn’t carry forward the homepage settings. Reason is free is via Appearance>Customize whereas Pro is via Appearance>Theme Options.
Secondly Pro has lots of more options than free to carry it forward. In Free you can select pages on the homepage boxes via Appearance>Customize.

Whereas on Pro you can select it via Appearance>Theme Options.

Regards,
Dave
