Hello! please explain me how to update wordpress? Do you use composer?

PhilippHeuer commented 7 years ago

This project was last updated 2 years ago, it seems pretty dead.

You might want to take a look at my project - which already uses WP 4.7.2. There is also a tutorial on how to update wordpress in the wiki. https://github.com/PhilippHeuer/wordpress-heroku

@PhilippHeuer Hey I installed your version and it looks great, but I really need to know how to use themes I've purchased. The wiki page just says "to-do" under custom theme installation... any help would be VERY much appreciated.

@whitleyblaine personally I would fork the repo, add the theme in, and then push your fork to Heroku. You can still cherry pick the updates into your fork.

whitleyhorn commented 7 years ago

i've already pushed to heroku .. can i add one in now? i just figured if it was really that simple, he would have already written it in the WIKI. see: https://github.com/PhilippHeuer/wordpress-heroku/wiki/WordPress---Plugins---Themes

No - you'll need to add the theme to your fork and then push that to Heroku.

PhilippHeuer commented 7 years ago

Forking the repository isn't really an option for a purchased theme. I would still prefer if you asked such questions in my repo -> https://github.com/PhilippHeuer/wordpress-heroku because there isn't really a relation to mhoofman's project.

You don't need to push your theme to github/a github fork, since heroku is also hosting the repository. You can just add it now and push your update to heroku - i will update the wiki with an example today (which pushes to heroku only - so your theme stays private).

EDIT: Added the instructions to the wiki, just ask if anything is unclear.
