 * I firstly downloaded the theme from WordPress.org and I worked on settings. The
   version of the theme from your website is a better one so I want to download 
   it and I think many users are like me. However, how should we proceed in order
   to activate the full version without losing the settings already done? Thanks

 * Hi there, the admin panel setting should be saved if you switch, except for the
   custom css field.
 * You either:
    – Overwrite the current theme files with the other one via FTP –
   Rename the new theme to something else and upload the zip via admin or the files
   via ftp, and then change between them in admin – Delete current theme and upload
   the other zip (haven’t tested if admin panel settings are saved if this is done
   when changing)

   about when updating/changing.
