Decibel has been updated to version 3.
We took the best from our most recent music themes and put it back to Decibel to make it even better. We also added new exclusive features.
What's New
- The backend has been re-designed.
- The theme design has been fully polished and modernized.
- Some secondary design features will be removed (icons in menu item)
- The theme options will be moved to the customizer.
- Many design options will be added.
- Many page options will be added below your page editor.
- Tons of features and page builder elements will be added via our Wolf WPBakery Page Builder Extension.
- We have added many new homepages, inner pages, and post-type layouts to the demo content.
- Wolf Tour Dates plugin will be updated to Wolf Events.
- The Wolf Slider plugin will be deprecated in favor of the page builder slider elements and the content block system. It will still be available within the theme for a while.
What You Need to Know Before Updating
Off course, updating is not mandatory but it is recommended.
The new version comes with a plugin to update your content for this new version automatically. However, here are a few recommendations to follow before updating.
- Make sure that your WordPress installation is up-to-date

- Install new recommended plugins
- Update WPBakery Page Builder (formerly Visual Composer) and Slider Revolution plugins to their latest version provided in your new theme package.
- Activate the Wolf WPBakery Page Builder Extension plugin using your theme purchase code
- Run the Decibel Version 3 updater to update your data.
- Once it is done, you can run the Force Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to resize all your images to suit the new design.
