My website terrystavern.com is running Enfold 4.2.4. Can the old 4.2.4 version be updated to the latest version 7.1.3 using the theme update button on my cPanel, or will programming be required to preserve the design? I want to know before purchasing because a web designer used your theme to develop this site and I may choose to just replace the theme with all new if I can’t just by your $59 regular license and simply hit the update button in the Enfold Theme admin area. I don’t have the time to devote to programming and would opt to start with a fresh website if it’s not possible to just hit the update button after purchasing your license. Please let me know. Thanks.
Hey Chris,
The update to 7.1.3 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/We can’t say if your site will stay the same or not, it depends on what has been done to it. You can export the theme settings under Enfold->Import/Export though, and make sure that you have a backup of your old site before updating anything.
Best regards,
Rikard
