Theme Update

Please check the current version of your theme. If your current version is Axtra  older than 2.0, you need to update with our legacy theme. Once you download the theme package from ThemeForest, you will find two folders: “Axtra-2.0-for-new-customer,” for new customers, and “Axtra-Legacy-Update-for-old-customer,” for old customers.

The updated version of the legacy theme is 1.8.6.

Below are the steps to update your theme:

Step-1: 

Make sure you downloaded the axtrathemeforestpackage.zip file from ThemeForest and extracted it.

Step-2:

From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Appearance>Themes. Then click on the “Add New Theme” option at the top of the page.
