Moving forefront theme to a new server
-
I purchased forefront theme on behalf of my client who spent a few months adding content. To maintain his email setup, he’d like me to move the whole site and contents to his existing host provider. I have read so e posts that premium themes can’t be moved. Is this true and if so what is the work around?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That is true and there is no workaround. Unless the designer offers the same theme for sale for WP.org users, you will have to choose a different theme or attempt to reverse engineer it in php.

Yes it’s true.
Note: Note: Premium Themes that are licensed for WordPress.com use only cannot be transferred to self-hosted WordPress.org sites. Some Automattic-developed premium themes can be transferred to a self-hosted site at no charge, as part of a Guided Transfer. Please post in the premium theme forums if you’d like to know whether your theme qualifies. http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/premium-themes/
There is no workaround: Contact the theme designer directly to ask for a version for WordPress.ORG software.

Forefront is available for self-hosted sites through Creative Market:

If that’s the only reason you’re thinking of going self-hosted, you can usually preserve an existing email setup by adding the appropriate MX records provided by the host:
