rename template folder and update to last template version

Dear sir/madam,
i've lately installed Joomla 3 with GK - steakhouse template for testing purposes: versions 3.11. I adjusted the site to my needs to find out if this template would work for me. And it does and so i want to use it.

I bought the total template on gavick.com and now i want to do 2 things but have some questions about it:

1. I installed a quickstart installation with joomla 3 (v3.11) but i see within the updates menu that there is a new version available (v3.15). I've made several adjustments to .css files to make it fit to our needs. But can i stil update the template to the new v3.15 version without losing these adjustments and will it keep on working as it did with v3.11?

2. I also want to rename the template so when you 'view source code' you will not see 'templates/gk_steakhouse'. I've found some possible solutions about this on your support forum site and on google but none of them seemed to work. I tried them all. Can you help me or tell me how to rename my specific template? If i install it as a new seperate template with my own name (instead of gk_steakhouse) i will not have all the adjustements i allready made in .css files. Can you help me with this please?

testlink where you can view website is: http://_____.nl

Kind regards,
Pieter

Hi,
updating a template will override all you customizations,
so please make a full backup of template before you will do it.
And after just copy your old selected files ony, as you told .css.

What has been changed you will find here: https://www.gavick.com/updates

2. I also want to rename the template ...

Please read before:

Hi try to change the template name of gk_steakhouse and I folow every step of :
https://www.gavick.com/blog/changing-template-name
Change the gk_steakhouse in
templateDetails.xml
as well I change
language/en-GB.tpl_gk_template_name.ini (filename)
js/gk.scripts.js
since it is for updating only
there is noting to change in
layouts/default.php

is it realy necessary to change in admin/script.js
line 365 var update_url = 'https://www.gavick.com/updates/json/tmpl,component/query,product/product,gk_steakhouse_j30'
admin/scripts.js

even when I change everything in
layouts/default.php
language/en-GB.tpl_gk_template_name.ini (filename)
js/gk.scripts.js
admin/scripts.js

the front onepage (header_bg.jpg doesn't show as well as the parallax_bg.jpg in bottom3)
I did reconfigure the new template because menu font attribute where left empty
Did I miss something?

Thank you

Hi use steakhouse v3,15

images path are in CSS so check there.
Just use Firebug tool what is wrong with URL.

In the original template the code is

<div id="gkBg">

<header id="gkHeader"></header>
<div id="gkPageContent"></div>
<section id="gkBottom1"></section>
<section id="gkBottom2"></section>
<section id="gkBottom3"></section>
<section id="gkBottom4"></section>
<section id="gkBottom5"></section>
<section id="gkBottom6"></section>
<div id="gkLang"></div>

</div>

in the template name change

="gkBg">

<header id="gkHeader" class="menu-visible"></header>
<div id="gkPageContent"></div>
<section id="gkBottom1"></section>
<section id="gkBottom2"></section>
<section id="gkBottom3"></section>
<section id="gkBottom4"></section>
<section id="gkBottom5"></section>
<section id="gkBottom6"></section>
<div id="gkLang">

The section with :
.frontpage #gkHeader, .box.parallax {
background-attachment: scroll;
}
.frontpage #gkHeader {
background: url("../images/header_bg.jpg") no-repeat fixed center top transparent;
}

Is missing and the menu is visible

How do I fix this

Not all CSS are loaded or what?
