# Custom Theme Automatic Updates

 * My company runs about 20 internal sites that all use the same template (some 
   have different child themes). We are constantly updating the theme to the tune
   of a new release about every 2 weeks.
 * Right now as you can imagine it’s a bit of work uploading the new theme folder
   to 20 sites. I was hoping that I would be able to setup the theme to automatically
   update when we post a new version (just like the twentyfifteen theme) but I can’t
   seem to find any information on it.
 * Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

 * You can use this to update your themes from github:

 * Another option is to use MainWP to push out and activate themes. [http://mainwp.com](http://mainwp.com)

 * OMG thank you so much. I don’t know why I was having so much trouble finding 
   these kind of solutions.
