 * Hello,
 * I get this message “Your theme (Symbiostock Express) contains outdated copies
   of some WooCommerce template files.”
 *     ```
       symbiostock-express/woocommerce/single-product/related.php version 3.0.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.9.0,
   
       symbiostock-express/woocommerce/content-product_cat.php version 2.6.1 is out of date. The core version is 4.7.0,
       symbiostock-express/woocommerce/taxonomy-product_cat.php version 1.6.4 is out of date. The core version is 4.7.0,
       symbiostock-express/woocommerce/taxonomy-product_tag.php version 1.6.4 is out of date. The core version is 4.7.0
       ```
   
 * How big problem this could be?
 * I cannot update to latest theme because its broken (at least on my end).

 * Hi there 👋
 * >  “Your theme (Symbiostock Express) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce
   > template files.”
 * I can see that those custom templates are coming from your current theme _Symbiostock
   Express_, and in order to get rid of those messages, as you well said, you will
   need to update your theme or change to another theme.
 * >  Please choose product options by visiting *Product name as a link here*
 * This issue seems to be caused by your theme. The best way to determine this is
   to:
    - Temporarily switch your theme to [Storefront](https://www.woocommerce.com/storefront/)
    - Disable all plugins except for WooCommerce
    - Repeat the action that is causing the problem
 * If you’re not seeing the same problem after completing the conflict test, then
   you know the problem was with the plugins and/or theme you deactivated. To figure
   out which plugin is causing the problem, reactivate your other plugins one by
   one, testing after each, until you find the one causing conflict. [You can find a more detailed explanation on how to do a conflict test here.](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/)
 * **Before you start**
    1. First, please make sure you have a good backup in place of your full site and
       database. Most hosting companies have this included in the subscription, but
       you could also consider using a service like Jetpack. If something goes wrong,
       it’s nice to know that you can restore your site.
    2. Second, I would suggest installing a plugin called Health Check & Troubleshooting.
       This is a plugin developed by the WordPress community and it allows you to disable
       plugins without affecting your current site visitors.
 * I hope that helps!

 * Hi [@tomiqa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomiqa/)!
 * You may also want to manually update these template files with the most recent
   core files as per [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/fix-outdated-templates-woocommerce/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/fix-outdated-templates-woocommerce/)
 * Cheers!

 * Howdy.
 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to go ahead and mark 
   this thread as resolved. If you have any other questions please start a new thread.
 * Cheers!
