    Hi, I received notification that Salient was updated to a new version. THere's no option in Wordpress to update through the admin console, so i downloaded the .zip file. However when I go to install the later version, WP tells me the error 'the theme salient is already installed'. How can I update without losing any of my content, slider settings, etc. ? Thanks!

    I also can not update from my admin panel, where did you find the .zip file?

    Thanks!

    Hey Cam & Guido :)

    You just have to download the latest release from ThemeForest, delete the current version you have and upload the new. All of your content and settings will persist through  :)

    Thanks!  For those reading later who are equally un-technical, also make sure you unzip the zip file you download, to access the 'salient.zip' file within it.  Otherwise you'll get an error when you try to install...
