 * Hi everyone,
 * After the latest 2.50 Sydney theme update, all my theme customizations suddenly
   disappeared. Unfortunately, my WordPress backup didn’t work as planned and isn’t
   fully restorable. Luckily, I still have a file backup on my server, so I have
   the old files.
 * Is there any way to restore the old settings using these files? Simply replacing
   the new Sydney theme folder (within `wp-content`) with the old one didn’t work,
   so I assume there are other Sydney-related files causing conflicts.
 * Thanks in advance!
