    Hi, If I try to update to the latest version of Enfold through ftp it totally breaks up my website. I’ve updated before in the past with no problems and checked everything 10 times but the problem keeps existing. Hope you can help me out.

    I made some changes. Now it only messes up the back-end. See example of the Enfold theme menu.

    the question is – how did you update via ftp manually?
    Did you really erased the old enfold folder and upload a new one? or do you try to write over all existing files etc. pp.

    My way to update in a save way ( because you will have a rollback version ) is:
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/some-hints-and-advice-to-update-enfold/#post-1056107
    You don’t need now the rollback – because the existing version is now corrupted or buggy. When overwriting an exiting folder it depends with the ftp programs on which parameters one sets. Is it always overwritten? What happens to files that are no longer in the new folder – or have been renamed? etc.

    Next – i see on your screenshot that your child is renamed to Fysio ( not Enfold ) – do you have that too for the parent theme? ( This would not be necessary – but some users even want to obfuscate even that ) – But there are a few things to keep in mind.

    Hi J1L,

    Thanks for giving us admin access as well as FTP access.
    It seems all CSS files have been changed on your theme, for example admin.css is renamed to .admin.css.icloud (I’m not sure why this happens and it’s the first time I’ve seen this)
    I have now fixed it on your site.
    Also, I noticed that you have replaced the enfold folder’s name as well as the Theme Name and other details, you can just change it in the child theme and it should replace the labels, also I would suggest not removing the version so it’s easier to identify which version of Enfold you are currently using.

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    Hi, Thank you very much for your help! It seems like the renaming of the files is caused by Icloud not synchronizing correctly.
    All works fine now.
