Pro The aThemes Patcher

The aThemes Patcher is a convenient tool designed to provide quick fixes for issues between regular updates. This feature ensures that your website remains secure and performs optimally with minimal effort. Instead of waiting for the next full update, the patcher delivers targeted fixes containing only the necessary files to resolve specific issues. Once a full update is installed, all applied patches will be automatically replaced, as their fixes are already included.

Supported Products

The patcher works seamlessly with the following products:

  • Sydney Pro
  • Botiga Pro
  • Merchant Pro
  • aThemes Addons Pro

Important: An active license code is required to access and apply patches for these products. Ensure your license is valid to enjoy continuous updates and fixes.

Accessing and Managing Patches

You can view and manage available patches through your WordPress dashboard in the left admin sidebar under the respective menu from the product you are using (Sydney, Botiga, Merchant or aThemes Addons). The patch list is regularly updated, but applying patches is optional.

Patches vs. Full Updates

Why do we provide patches instead of constant updates? Not all reported issues impact every user. Many bugs are minor and only affect a small number of users, so frequent updates would be unnecessary for most. By delivering patches, we provide an efficient, focused solution to users who need it, without burdening others. Critical and widespread issues, however, will trigger a full product update. When you install the next full update, the fixes from the applied patches will already be included, and the corresponding patches will no longer appear.
