Before using an archived theme release
- Install and test only in a local or staging environment first.
- Review the complete package for outdated PHP, JavaScript, bundled libraries, and remote dependencies.
- Test the mobile menu, mega menu, slider, galleries, slideshow, comments, widgets, archives, and author pages.
- Verify keyboard navigation, focus visibility, headings, labels, color contrast, zoom, and mobile reflow.
- Keep a current default WordPress theme installed as a recovery option.
- Do not treat the 2014 release notes as proof of current support.
