- What is the recommended procedure for updating a Rockettheme (Wordpress Infuse) that has been customized (primarily just CSS)? Do I need to upload all files in the updated theme folder or just those listed as "changed files" in the theme update release page on the Rockettheme website? I'd like to avoid overwriting the customizations, but want to make sure the theme gets updated properly. Any guidance is appreciated.
- Thanks,
Brian

Make a backup first. Personally i place all the CSS changes into my own CSS file and let it be picked up by Gantry. It's more upgrade proof that way.
While you could just upload the files from the changelog i wouldn't do it because then you won't see the new template version in the backend for example. That can easily be changed i guess... - Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

- Does it matter if my theme is not a Gantry theme? Also, any tips on how to handle custom CSS so theme updating is easier? Should I create a separate CSS file for my changes that get loaded last?

It involves Gantry and Joomla but you can always borrow the idea
