MAJOR UPDATE NOTICE FOR EXISTING CUSTOMERS (v16.0)

Version 16.0 is a MASSIVE architectural overhaul that completely replaces legacy shortcodes with 52+ new Elementor modules. You MUST follow these instructions carefully to avoid breaking your live site:

1. TAKE A FULL BACKUP: Do not update without taking a complete backup of your WordPress files and database first.

2. UPDATE THE PLUGIN: You must update the “Musicplay Widgets” plugin immediately after updating the theme. The new theme will not function correctly with the old plugin version.

3. CHILD THEME USERS: If you are using a Child Theme and have overridden core template files (like single.php, header.php, or custom post type layouts), you must review and update your child theme files. The core templates have been heavily rewritten for Elementor compatibility.
