Hello, Maybe its too amateur question, but I could not find an answer how to do it.

Several days ago I updated Purity III to its newest version. Unfortunately, all the changes I made on the "template design" are now gone.

How can I avoid this in future?

Thank you in advance!

Regards, Teodor

P.S. For example I made a new position for Breadcrumbs, which is now missing. The strange is that the custom CSS (LESS) changes which I made are still there

Hi
The custom.css file does not override when u update the template.
If you added a custom position in the PHP code in blocks file, i suggest you put the file on the same path in a local folder.
Example:
templates/purityiii/tpls/blocks/header.php file

now copy the header.php file in

templates/purityiii/local/tpls/blocks/header.php file

this will be an override of header.php file and does not override on template update.

Thank you very much!

Should I remove the original file (In your example: templates/purityiii/tpls/blocks/header.php) or it does not matter?

Regards,
Teodor

Hi
Do not remove the file from tpls folder. These are the core files of template.
And local folder is an override for these files.
