We are so pleased to let you know that we’ve launched an update for our Starter Pro theme. This update comes with a bunch of changes that would eventually make your Starter Pro experience a lot easier than ever before. We made sure you have state of the art technology with drag and drop facility to edit and change your contents.

We reduced the hassle of making pages for each of the menu items by combining all of them on a single page and lots more. But we highly recommend you to consider some certain things before you rush for the update.

Firstly, we want you to have a backup for your contents as some of them will no longer be available, data might be lost and layouts might be broken once you update to the new version.

Then read this blog post to know how to update a WordPress theme manually. Now you can proceed to update the theme. Please note, the new version has some major changes, therefore your previous site structure may be somewhat affected.
