My homepage is currently running Enfold Theme version 4.2. The automated update is not working.
Is the Enfold – Responsive Multi-Purpose Theme, version 5.4 (found here: https://themeforest.net/item/enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4519990) the perfect and easy upgrade? That is, can I upgrade without expecting any major difficulties?
Someone has proposed getting a new API KEY, but that is not an option. I have contacted the Themeforest User originally doing the installation.
In https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-update/ I read that upgrading via FTP is an option. I hope to go for this option.
Hey Per,
The update to 5.4 has to be done manually from the version you are running, please refer to my replies in this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/#post-1021541
You can either update manually via FTP: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#theme-update, or use a plugin to upload the theme zip file: https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-theme-and-plugins-from-zip-file/
If that doesn’t work then please try to delete the whole theme folder, then replace it with the new version. Make sure that you have backups of the site before starting updating.
Also please read this after you have updated: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/
Best regards,
Rikard
