Get Incompatible archive when trying to installl

Hey wiebejammin,

The update to 6.0.6 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 upload the theme as if it was new under Appearance->Themes->Add New Theme.
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,

Hi,

I’m not sure which file you are trying to upload, is it a zip archive? If yes, then if that is not working then please try to extract that archive and use enfold.zip which should be located in the extracted archive.

Hi,

Thanks for the update, so you are making your own zip file? Is there a reason for that? The package that you download from Themeforest should already be zipped.

Hi,
Please link to your file so we can check what you downloaded from Theme Forest.

Best regards,

Hi,
You have linked to an extracted theme zip, if you downloaded the installable WP version from Theme Forest it would be a single zip file, perhaps you clicked it and your Mac extracted it, I’m not sure.
To try to help I tried to upload my working zip file and got incompatible archive error, so this makes me believe that your server doesn’t have the PHP ZipArchive Extension enabled, you must enable this on your server.
I see that you just updated your PHP to 8.1 from probably 7.4, often web hosts have not enabled this extension by default for the PHP 8+ where it was always enabled on 7.4
If you are using a cPanel webhost this is what you would look for:

otherwise you will need to ask your webhost to check and enable.
The easiest way to fix this right now is to upload your extracted theme files that you linked to via FTP or the cPanel file manager using the documentation that Rikard linked to, scroll down to: Re-install or Update using FTP for more info.
