Update template files after upgrade to WPEC 3.9.1?

  • I have recently updated WPEC to version 3.9.1.

    Some of the template files were copied to the theme folder earlier on using the option in the shop presentation settings.

    Should i overwrite these files again? Is there anyway to be sure i dont overwrite customisations? See i wasnt yet involved in this project when the site was built..

    Hi that’s a great question and you’re smart for asking ahead of time ??

    The files that have been copied into your theme usually means that someone has possibly made custom changes.

    The down side is there templates over the years have become outdated and some no longer work well with the current version available.

    It would be advisable to back them up prior to making changes.

    You can then upgrade the store and test… if everything works fine no problem.

    If you find strange or broken behavior then it may be related to these old files.

    Quickest way to test is move all files in your theme that start with wpsc to a sub folder called wpsc-off

    Then visit your WP admin Settings > Store – Presentation (TAB) click Flush Theme Cache

    Now test things should be working. You may need to look in the files to see what changes were made and try to modify them to move them to the theme again. It may not be needed. Everything might just work as you like.
