Tricks How to activate/null mythemeshop coupon theme

[Kundra]

Five easy steps to do it.

============= STEP #1 ==============
First, as usual, make sure that the " mythemeshop_connect " plugin is not installed. It installs by itself when you first run the theme. If installed, delete it.

============= STEP #2 ==============
FILE: mts_coupon \ functions \ plugin-activation.php
LINE #4480

Add double-slash to the beginning of the line.

This:
add_filter( 'plugins_api', 'mts_connect_plugin_install_url', 10, 3 );

To This:
// add_filter( 'plugins_api', 'mts_connect_plugin_install_url', 10, 3 );

============= STEP #3 ==============
SAME FILE
LINE: #4498

The same as above.

This:
add_filter( 'pre_set_site_transient_update_plugins', 'mts_connect_plugin_update_url' );

To This:
// add_filter( 'pre_set_site_transient_update_plugins', 'mts_connect_plugin_update_url' );

============= STEP #4 ==============
FILE: mts_coupon \ functions \ theme-actions.php
LINE #904

Add RETURN; in that line right after " function mts_theme_activation( $oldtheme_name = null, $oldtheme = null ) { "

This:
function mts_theme_activation( $oldtheme_name = null, $oldtheme = null ) {

To This:
function mts_theme_activation( $oldtheme_name = null, $oldtheme = null ) { RETURN;

============= STEP #5 ==============
SAME FILE
LINE #976

Add RETURN; in that line right after " define( 'MTS_THEME_INIT', 1 ); "

This:
define( 'MTS_THEME_INIT', 1 );

To This:
define( 'MTS_THEME_INIT', 1 ); RETURN;


Done!


NOTE: Remember that when you install the theme, it will show a list of needed plugins. That list will include "MyThemeShop Theme/Plugin Updater". Do not install that one. It is "needed" for checking the connection to the licensing server. Nothing else.

If it bothers to see it in that list, rip it off by editing this file:

mts-coupon \ functions \ plugin-activation.php

Remove from line #3810 through line #3817

Code being removed:

array(
            'name'      => 'MyThemeShop Theme/Plugin Updater ',
            'slug'      => 'mythemeshop-connect',
            'description' => __( 'A simple and easy way to update your MyThemeShop themes and plugins to the the latest versions using good old one click method!', 'coupon' ),
            'required'  => false,
            'source'    => 'https://mythemeshop.com/mythemeshop-connect.zip',
            'tab'       => 'both'
        ),
