Hey – I’ve been using the Claue template since v. 1.0 and at this point mine too is very heavily customized and edited. To incorporate updates made to versions 1.05, 1.06 and 1.07 I have used this tool :
https://www.diffchecker.com/diff
Each time an update is released you have to download the new package, upload it to your store and in one browser tab be in the “edit code” section of the new, unedited version and in another browser tab be in the “edit code” section of your working, modified version.
Then look at the changlog which can be found here :
http://shopify.janstudio.net/claue/document/#changelog
Open each file listed under ‘File changes’ in both the newest, unedited version of Claue AND in your edited version, cut and paste the code from both into Diff Checker (new code on the left, your modified code on the right) and click the button at the bottom of the page that says “Find Difference!”. That will tell you what the JanStudio guys have changed while it will also highlight the additions that you have made to your file in green. Key in on anything in red on the left and if it isn’t something that you purposely removed previously, that is what they have added and what you will want to add to your modified file.
A tip: pay attention to line items and copy and paste code from the actual liquid files open in your other browser tabs NOT from the code in Diff Checker.
It’s pretty simple but can be time consuming but unfortunately it is the only way to update Shopify themes where the liquid and html files have been modified previously.
Hope that helps.
