For Embark (All versions), Stratus (V3), Bellevue (V2), Entrepreneur (V2), Pursuit (V2), please use the auto update plugin included with the theme setup.
First of all we recommend making a backup of your files and database when updating the theme, just in case even though it should go over smoothly.
If you have made any modifications to the core theme files without using the included child theme then you’ll need to make note of the changes, and in that case we would definitely recommend making a backup. A program like WinMerge (Windows) or DiffMerge (Cross platform) can also be very helpful in that situation. For theme file changes, we always recommend using the included child theme instead of editing the main/parent theme itself.
If you haven’t made any core theme file changes, the best way to update the theme would be to extract the download package and overwrite the (parent) theme folder over FTP.
If you’re not familiar with FTP, then you can just go into the WP dashboard and delete the (parent) theme, then install the newly downloaded version of the theme as you normally would (note that you’ll have to switch the theme before deleting it if you are not using a child theme, since WP doesn’t allow you to delete the active theme.) Since your content and settings are stored in the database, you won’t be deleting that content.
4. How to find what version of the theme you are using.
Login into your WordPress admin panel and go to “Appearance” -> “Themes”. Here are listed all your installed themes. Click on desired theme and pop-up window will appear. On the right-side, near theme name is displayed theme version. This method works both for active and inactive themes.
5. Updating Entrepreneur (Version 1.3.6 and earlier)
Please make sure you know which version of Entrepreneur you are currently using before continuing. Not sure?
The most recent version of Entrepreneur version 1 is Version 1.3.8 and you can download it here.
Once you have downloaded the zip from the link above, you can continue.

6. Migrating from Entrepreneur v1 to Entrepreneur v2
In June 2018 we launched the largest update ever for our Entrepreneur theme that includes a long list of new features and improvements, the most important one being a brand new visual drag and drop builder.
Our original meta box page builder system worked very well, but now that Entrepreneur had been available for 3 years a lot changed and the new system is a great improvement.
We wanted to deliver the best possible experience and didn't want to compromise on the features of the new version so it is a full rebuild, and as such there isn't a simple upgrade option from v1 to v2. It's essentially a new theme. So for all existing customers, you have the option to continue to use v1, or included for free - you can install v2 as a new theme and recreate your content in the new system.
If you choose to upgrade to v2, we strongly recommend making a backup, though we don't expect any issues to arise.
You may want access to your old content but since we no longer use the old metabox builder you won't have access as these plugins have been disabled. You can reactivate the old theme to get access to your old content at anytime. Just activate Entrepreneur version 1, and you will also need or reactivate a few plugins:
404 Error - If you see a 404 error trying to access your old Room, try going to Settings / permalinks / and click save to reset the permalink structure. You may need to do the same step when reactivating the new version of Entrepreneur.
Switch back to the new version when you are ready.
