Hi Restie,

Thank you for writing in.

There have been huge changes from version 7 to version 12, you can try updating from a staging/test site first to see how the layouts come out, however you can as well do this with the help of a developer so that in case of any breakage they are able to help.

Thanks.

Hey Again,

Please update to the Latest Salient Theme Version.

The current version of the theme is 12.1.6 and the current version of the page builder is 6.4.2. Salient versions older than v11 won't be compatible with WordPress 5.5.

Here's the documentation on the available methods for updating Salient: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/#methods Once you've updated that, the update for the included page builder will become available. Note that "Visual Composer" also renamed their plugin on Envato to "WPbakery page builder" a couple of years back.

Here's an update guide on what to expect when jumping many major releases at once: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/ take a read through before the update, as many things have changed.

To get a list of Bug Fixes and new Feature addons in the Latest Theme updates view change log here http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html .

Best.

Hi Restie,

You can use Php version 7.4.

Thanks.
