    I used the Agency Pro theme years ago and went to activate it again, but I had so many customizations that I don't want now. I'm not familiar enough with changing the function.php to clear out some things I added. What is the best way for me to start over with a fresh theme?

    Thanks!

    Hi Ashley,

    I think your best bet would be to download a fresh copy of Agency Pro via StudioPress and then access your site via FTP and delete/remove the old Agency Pro child theme directory you don't want and replace it with the new one that you downloaded, unzipped and loaded to your server via FTP. That would provide you with a default stylesheet and functions.php file.

    Hope that helps,

    Mike

    1)upgrade your framework to the last vertion ..to do this check your actualization in your wp admin panel.. . . 2)Open stylesheet and functions.php file and make a back up . 3) once you have your backup . Dowload a fresh theme from your StudioPress account to your computer , unzip the theme and go to the functions.php file. Copy all content there and replace the old one for the newone ...do the same with yourstytlesheet...Please do all this via ftp and not via the editor from your admin pnael in yor wordpress ...becouse if something get wrong you can always go back using your backup .
