 * Hi there, I’m just setting up a Photopharm theme that uses the Option Tree (OT)
   plugin. I updated to the newest OT then reinstalled the Photopharm theme and 
   when I navigated to **Appearance > Theme Options** I still don’t get the standard
   list of options such as **Logo URL, Background URL** etc etc..

 * Any Ideas? or could this possibly be an issue for the author of the theme [The Molitor](http://themeforest.net/user/theMOLITOR)?

 * The issue is that OT was installed before the theme and created default theme
   options because none existed. If you import the theme-options.xml and theme-options.
   txt in the option-tree directory found in the root of your theme you’ll be able
   to get the theme up and running as it should be. I’ll be adding a force import
   button soon for those of your that have run into this already. Sorry for the 
   trouble, but once you import those files you should be good to go.

 * Well it’s not that OT was installed before the theme… rather I am just unlucky
   enough to have installed the theme and then installed the previous version of
   OT that wasn’t working properly. To fix things up “The Molitor” (my theme’s author)
   suggested I run the ol’ OT ver. 1.1.8 and now everything works properly. This
   is just temporary as I’m all about updating to the newest OT so I’ll be following
   your advice when I have a chance.
 * Thanks for the reply. I know you’ve been working hard on this.
