Reply To: Theme upgrades on localhost

1) As we already said it is depends on WordPress functionality. And only menu and widgets may be lost after activating another theme.

2) There are no any files containing widgets, all configutaions is saved in Appearance -> Widgets in the dashboard.

3) What exactly step by step instruction do you need? How to set up child theme? Here is is:

1. Find child theme in the zip file downloaded from themeforest.

2. Upload it via your wordpress dashboard in Appearance -> Themes.

3. Activate child theme.

Thats all 🙂
