    Hi,

    This is more of a question as to why when I deleted entire theme and uploaded new v1.7.5 all of my settings are still there?
    Where all of this info is retained? DB?

    Thanks!

    Dear Johnny,

    Answer is no!, There are 2 scenarios.

    If you simply just update theme you will not loose any of your website theme settings. But if you delete the current theme and reactivate the new theme you will loose your all widget and custom settings.

    You only need to update your theme by overwriting files from FTP or update it from Dashboard. In this case you will not loose any of your themes settings.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply!
    Makes sense.
    So I can use option to upload thru WordPress interface instead of deleting/re-uploading new version using FTP?

    Where settings are kept? just want to know so I don’t delete it by accident.
