# Update Glozin to Version 3.0.0

With version **3.0.0 of Glozin**, we’re excited to introduce Shopify’s new **Block features**, giving you more flexibility to customize your store.\
Since this is a big upgrade, updating requires a **manual process** instead of automatic migration.\
Don’t worry — just follow the steps below and you’ll be all set with the latest version.

{% hint style="warning" %}
In case you have customization code in your theme, please follow the [**Manually update instruction**](https://nextsky.gitbook.io/glozin-theme/get-started/update-theme/update-glozin-manually) instead.
{% endhint %}

### Step 1: Duplicate your theme

Before making any changes, create a backup of your live theme.

* Go to **Online Store > Themes**.
* Click **Actions > Duplicate**.\
  This will create a safe copy of your current theme in case you need to restore it.

{% hint style="danger" %}
This first step is extremely important to keep your main theme safe.\
We **cannot take responsibility** for any data loss if you don’t follow the instructions in this document.
{% endhint %}

### Step 2: Remove specific sections and blocks

To make sure your theme updates smoothly, you’ll need to remove some sections and blocks from your customized theme.

**A. If you are using any of the following sections, please remove them completely wherever they are applied in your theme:**

* Featured product
* Banner packery
* Counter
* Outfit idea
* Image with text overlay
* Multi content
* Promotion banner
* Help center
* Slideshow with banner

**B. If you are using the following sections, please remove the specific blocks listed below:**

* **Image with text overlay** → remove the *Image* block
* **Quickview** → remove *all active blocks*
* **Product information** → remove *all active blocks*
* **Image comparison** → remove *all product blocks*
* **Main password page** → remove *Countdown, Subscribe form, and Text* blocks
* **Page FAQ** → remove *all active blocks*

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Note:** You need to remove the mentioned sections and blocks from **every page of your store** to prevent errors from happening.
{% endhint %}

### Step 3: Remove the Scroll animation

1. Go to **Online Store > Themes > Customize**.
2. In the left panel, open **Theme settings**.
3. Select **Animation**.
4. Set **Scroll animation** to **None.**
5. Click **Save.**
