Theme not updating

Permalink
Hi everyone,

I was poking around with some themes, seeing what the various ones did to change the look and feel of a vanilla site, so I added several of them and have noticed one of them will not update.

When I'm in dashboard -> add functionality I'm getting the msg there is 1 update available. I click the "update addon" button. It shows me "Natural Essence" is available for download, my current vs is 1.0 and that 1.1 is available. I click the download and install button, get the msg "the package has been updated successfully" but I am still told the update is available. I've done it multiple times, gone away from the page, closed my browser down, forced refresh etc and it stays there telling me there is an update available.

I checked the theme for "bugs", no one else has reported anything like this. Tried searching the forum and was unable to find anything. Checked the bug tracker for this release found nothing.

This is an install on the new vs not on an upgrade from the previous version.

Any ideas?

The problem is that the theme in question still has 1.0 as its version within its controller.php file. It's hard for me to tell whether the version uploaded to concrete5.org is still 1.0 or whether the developer updated the file but just forgot to increment the version number.

In the meantime I've moved the version number of the add-on back to 1.0 so that people don't see an update that doesn't appear to install correctly.

Ah :) Thank you very much. Super fast response btw.

I hadn't looked at the code in theme, now I know where to look should something like this happen again.
