How To Update the Theme

The MasterStudy LMS Starter theme update is released regularly. Each theme update includes new features, improvements to existing options, security patches, and bug fixes. To be able to use them we recommend you keep the theme installation up to date.

As soon as a new update is available, you can update the theme through the WP admin panel. Before starting to update the theme we encourage you to walk through the following points:

Best Practice

  • Always check our release notes - Changelog

  • Perform a full site and database backup. Thus you’re able to revert the working version of your website if anything unexpected happens during/after the update process.

  • Ensure that your server is configured to the minimum requirements for the theme. You can see the required minimums of the server limits on the System Requirements page.

  • Reset the browser and server cache after finishing the update.

  • Have a staging version of your original website? Then just run the update process first on a test website to ensure that everything is working correctly.

An important step before updating!

Before the release of any update, we conduct automatic and manual testing of our theme. However, during the installation/update process, there may occur unexpected issues related to the work of other plugins or problems with the server side. In such cases, you can contact the support department for assistance.

Update the theme via WordPress

When a new version of the theme will be available you will get a notification on the WordPress dashboard.

After successfully updating the theme do not forget to update installed plugins if a new version is available for them for better compatibility.
