Some items are not working!

Check through the duplicated theme to see if there are any hardcoded references to the old them directory name. There is a chance that some themes will use hardcoded references to directory locations using the old theme name. Update those references to the new theme names.

Some items are still not working in the duplicated theme

Do a search through the WordPress options table in the database. There are probably some static references to the old theme name that have to be updated.
