    I try to upload Enfold 1.9.1 from the backend but I got the message ‘Theme installation fails, Target map already exists’. How can I update the theme from backend, without the need to use the FTP option?

    Regards

    Hi Michiel,

    My guess is that the permissions on your wp-content folder or wp-content>themes folder is such that your WordPress user level isn’t allowed by the server to write over the theme folder.

    Typically we suggest just updating via FTP but if it isn’t an option you can either contact your hosting provider to see about changing the chmod permissions on your wp-content folder and themes folder or updating through your hosting panels file manager.

    Regards,

    It would still work the first time since you were creating the folder and not writing over a folder. Its a pretty common issue and once fixed shouldn’t come up again.
