How can I edit the built-in pages ?

To edit the (About us) page, open the following file: ./themes/[theme name]/apps/about_us/src/source.phtml and paste the previously created HTML content of this page into it, and then save!

This editing method was chosen by the author, because HTML markup is sometimes unpredictably huge, depending on the specific owner of the site, so experience has shown that storing huge pages in a database and even encoded ones is not the best option

Script update

Ho to update my Upflix website?

If you have missed one or two or v1.x.x updates, and you want to update your site to latest version, you have to update your site version by version manually. E.g.

Before you apply the latest updates to your site, you must install previous updates, more precisely, all versions of the update, from your current version to the latest version. For example, your current version is: [v1.0], and the latest version of the script is: [v1.0.4], in such cases, you must install these previous versions (v1.0.1, v1.0.2, v1.0.3), before installing the latest version [v1.0.4]


If you did everything as described above, then before starting the update, download the latest version of the script from here CodeCanyon - Downloads

Once you have downloaded the latest version of the script, you can find the update files in "Script updates" folder, as shown below:

Select the version of the update and unzip it wherever convenient for you. For example to the desktop
