Hi, reading other posts around https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/page/7/
seems I need to provide you my FTP settings to get help which I did in the private content area below. Thanks for helping update this theme to the latest!!It’s kind of urgent as my site is broken right now
May 9, 2019 at 4:38 pm #1098998Hi
I can’t read your private content here (as I am just a participant like you), but I could help you if you want.
Not sure how fast the support team will react here as there are usually a lot of open threads.Best,
MichaelMay 9, 2019 at 5:04 pm #1099009Hi, Michael,
Would love help, but I am not comfortable giving my FTP creds. If you are familiar with the problem, can you just post instructions?May 9, 2019 at 5:07 pm #1099013Sure – you are totally right!
Are you comfortable with FTP? Here is my step by step guide which I wrote a couple months ago. I hope it helps you to update your theme.
Do not forget to make a full website backup before doing anything else.
May 10, 2019 at 1:59 pm #1099275Hi LisaBrookins,
Thanks for the FTP login details. We will need WordPress admin login details as well if you need help with updating, also please verify that you have backups of the site in case something should go wrong.
The FTP login details you posted seems to be working, but it’s timing out before I get to see any files. Please verify that the FTP details are correct as well.
Best regards,
RikardMay 11, 2019 at 3:19 am #1099458I did the FTP steps but the step 10 (pasted below) don’t make sense to me – I don’t see any way on the https://build.envato.com page to generate a new private key – also it refers to my apps but I don’t have an app, I just have a website tring to use the envato theme. Also I see no mention of permissions for private API keys on that other page. So I am lost. Can you help?

10) Your current API token will not work anymore as Envato changed some stuff on their API. Therefore you need to remove your current key and generate a new private key as visible in your themeforest account under “Settings” -> “API keys”. Go to https://build.envato.com and follow the steps there. To me, https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#toggle-id-5 was also very helpful (scroll down a bit there to find out about the permissions your private API key needs in order to check for future Enfold updates). Without these permissions it will not work.- This reply was modified 5 years, 7 months ago by LisaBrookins.

Let me explain it in more detail:
a) Go to https://build.envato.com/ and sign in on the top.
b) Scroll down until you see the title “Your personal tokens”.
c) Click the button “Create a new token” and grant sufficient access according to step 2 here https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/#how-to-generate-a-envato-personal-token
d) Insert this key into Enfold – done.Does that help?
Best regards
MichaelMay 12, 2019 at 3:53 am #1099662Thank you for taking the time! That worked!!
May 12, 2019 at 7:01 am #1099674Awesome stuff – thanks Lisa!
To value my time, just go to Trustpilot and give me 5 stars, thanks a lot (haha just kidding) ;)May 12, 2019 at 9:10 am #1099696Hi LisaBrookins,
Great, I’m glad that you got it working. Please let us know if you should need any further help on the topic or if we can close it.
Thanks @michaelH for helping out :-)
Best regards,
RikardMay 28, 2019 at 1:37 pm #1104829Hi all
Are there any effort being made to sort this out?
Kinda a real pain having to continually request Ftp details so i can load a theme. would love to have some feedback on this pleaseRegards
GavinMay 31, 2019 at 6:13 pm #1105790Hi Gavin,
Yes, the issue is fixed on the latest versions of Enfold.
The problem with updating with the older version of Enfold was because envato have changed their API and replaced the use of API keys with tokens.
Once you have updated to the latest version you should be able to update the theme normally without any issues.Best regards,
