Is there someone here expert enough to help me upgrade from 3.7.0 installed to 3.7.7 for a reasonable fee?

Thanks,
Jim

Sure but first read this thread and think about doing it yourself HOWTO: upgrade Atahualpa to a new version

After reading that if you still want to ire someone send me a PM and I'll quote you my rate

Hi,
I have zero difficulty in doing it myself. I simply don't' have time and rather spend my time on sales building. PM me possibly if available.

Basically, it's an upgrade and I made some manual changes to the template, so this is a not a four clicks and your done upgrade.

On a sidenote:
I bought the themeframe app as well, and was hoping to build a clone of my current website with that, but honestly, it just seems too cumbersome to do so (only wish there was someone out there that does cloning into themeframe).

Thanks,
Jim

Now that I'm thinking about it, would it not be easier to create a child theme for the few changes I made then I could upgrade more easily?

not knowing what you modified, I can't answer that.

user did the upgrade, it took 15 minutes and it is working
