# FXT Theme Updates

FXT theme includes an automatic update system that keeps your theme up to date with the latest features, security patches, and improvements.

## Automatic Updates

### How Updates Work

FXT theme automatically checks for updates through the AffKraft update server:

1. **License Verification**: Updates are only available for registered themes
2. **Version Check**: The theme checks for new versions periodically
3. **Update Notification**: You'll be notified when updates are available
4. **One-Click Update**: Install updates directly from WordPress dashboard

### Update Requirements

To receive theme updates:

* **Valid License**: Your theme must be registered with a valid license key
* **Active License**: The license must be activated in FXT Options

## Manually Checking for Updates

1. In WordPress dashboard, go to **Appearance** → **Themes**
2. Look for the FXT theme in your installed themes
3. If an update is available, you'll see an "Update Available" notification
4. Click **Update Now** to install the latest version

## Troubleshooting

### Update Issues

If you encounter problems with updates:

1. **Check License**: Ensure your license is valid and activated
2. **Server Connection**: Verify your server can connect to `api.affkraft.com`
3. **File Permissions**: Check that WordPress can write to the themes directory

### Manual Update

If automatic updates fail:

1. Download the latest theme version from your AffKraft account
2. Upload the theme files through WP dashboard
3. Install and replace the previous version
4. Clear any caching options
