Dear Support,
We have an old website that runs on Enfold 4.6. The original developer is out of sight and it seems he didn’t set the Envato token so the theme was never updated.
We would like to update it to the latest version. Could you tell what can we expect from such a huge gap between versions (4.6 -> 6.x)? How would the update be done? Is it enough to enter the new Envato token? Or do we have to install the new theme, recreate all the pages and posts? Other difficulties to be prepared for?
Thanks,
Peter Rozsahegyi
Hey Péter Rózsahegyi,
Thank you for the inquiry.
You may need to update the theme via FTP this time because the automatic update in the dashboard will not work. We recommend cloning the site to a staging environment, perform the update there, resolve any errors that may occur, and then transfer it to the live site. Please check the links below for more info.
