Upgrade OptionTree

  • Hi,

    I have option tree version 2.0.12.
    How do I update it to the latest version? Replacing the old folder with the new version doesn’t work.

    I am currently getting some errors in my website when I debug,
    i.e.
    Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is deprecated since version 4.3.0! Use
    __construct()

    So I would like to update OptionTree.

    Kind regards,
    Carme

    That notice is not related to OptionTree, it’s an issue with widgets using the PHP 4 constructor instead of __construct. In any case, you should be able to upgrade without much issue. When you say you replace the old folder with the new one, what about it doesn’t work? Does OptionTree not load or do you get additional errors besides the one above?

    Thanks for responding.

    RE: __construct
    Yes, I realized that late. I was able to fix that.

    The current option tree folder is within the theme’s folder
    /wp-content/themes/theme-name/option-tree/

    it is version 2.0.12; the updated one is 2.6.0, if I’m right. Here’s what happened:
    – removed old version
    – uploaded zipped new version
    – uncompressed zipped new version
    – opened website
    – i get 500 server error (on all pages including those within WP Dashboard)

    BUT when I put the old version back, everything is ok

    May I know how to upgrade/update OptionTree?
    I checked both github repositories
    https://github.com/valendesigns/option-tree
    https://github.com/valendesigns/option-tree-theme

    none of these have any instructions on how to update/upgrade OptionTree.
