    The two Sites with Enfold can’t be updated to version 4.5, I get every time I try this error message…. why?

    Der Aktualisierungsprozess beginnt. Dies kann eine Weile dauern, bitte hab etwas Geduld.

    Hey Eric,
    Theme Forest has changed their API for Token keys, v4.5 fixes this, it is recommend to update manually.
    There is a free plugin that will allow you to manually update via the WordPress Theme panel by uploading the enfold.zip file, otherwise you can update via FTP, please remember to delete the current enfold folder and then upload the new one. Please don’t try to overwrite the theme folder, as this will leave old files behind and cause errors.

    My recommendation is to go to your Theme Forest account and download the updated Enfold v4.5 and manually update it, then going forward it will use the new Token keys. All users will need to generate a new token for updates.
    Please let us know if you would like some help updating.

    Here are the steps to update with the plugin
    *Please ensure your “PHP Max Upload Size” is at least 20mb, because Enfold is 16.7mb.
    1: please install the plugin: Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File

    2: then go to WordPress > Themes > Add New > Upload
    2018-10-20-104649 2018-10-20-105401
    3: after the install, click “Return to Themes page” (NOT Activate)

    4: success:

    Hi Mike
    Thanks for the quick answer.
    Somehow when I come to the Envato website, 4.4 is shown. When I download, I get a zip file named “themeforest-4519990-enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme-wordpress-theme.zip” it doesn’t look like the latest version 4.5, right?
    Manual update is no problem, I know how it works, thx for the pics. I just need the right version! (4.5)
    Regards & thxx!

    Hi,
    typically the “installable” theme files download from your Theme Forest account may have the version number listed when you bought the theme, but if you download it, it turns out to be the latest version. To check open the “style.css” file, the third line from the top has the version number.

    For zip file named “themeforest-4519990-enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme-wordpress-theme.zip” you will want to look inside of it for the zip named “enfold.zip” that is the “installable” theme file, please look at the style.css for the version number.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi Mike
    Thanx for your help!
    After a renaming of the old Enfold folder it worked well. With no renaming it doesn’t install (error: the folder already exists).
    Best,
    Eric

    Hi

    I am running a good number of Enfold sites and I Can’t update to version 4.5 (An error occurred while updating Enfold: Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.) You know the issue, your forum is full of the same problem – when will this be fixed?

    To be clear, I am not interested in a manual fix via ftp or something similar, I have neither the time or the inclination.

    Furthermore I have invested considerable time in bringing several clients into the Enfold fold and some of them are responsible for their own updates, I can’t now expect them to manually update Enfold after so hesitantly leaving another theme.

    Will this issue be solved in a further update? …if so when?

    regards Charl

    Hi,
    @charl the v4.5 update is the solution, this requires files to be replaced via ftp, so it was integrated into the v4.5 update, which is a easier solution than trying to explain which files go where.
    Luckily there is a easy plugin that updates the theme without using FTP, it was posted above along with the steps to use it.
    Thank you for your understanding.
    Please feel free to open your own thread if these steps are not clear.

    Best regards,
    Mike
