I don’t see anyone here creating sides or blaming Kriesi. We all know WP 5.0 was rushed out, and I’m guessing that the Beta WP 5.0 that the Enfold coders tested on is different than the WP 5.0 that was released yesterday…. maybe just one little line of code threw the whole ALB off.
What does concern me is that the forums seem to be without mods today — on the first day of a major release. Just some “we are working on this, hang tight” would be welcomed at this point.
007 I see that workaround, and haven’t tried it… my site has many pages, and I also fear that if there’s a problem “under the hood of the car” that may appear to fix it while corrupting something else. I’m waiting for the mods / developers to weigh in on a fix, which should be 4.5.2….
It’s not urgent – just my staging site – but the number of threads is incredible.
Happy Holidays to you!

RobNope… it’s been 14 hours since I first posted about this and was the first to post about WP 5.0 and Enfold problems, and no response from mods.
A “We are aware of the issues with WordPress 5.0 and Enfold, and are working on a solution. In the meantime do not update your sites to WordPress 5.0” would be an easy sticky to add.
Everyone does…. I posted this last night…. Amazed that Enfold support is silent on this as thread after thread is posted… this should be a sticky, and they should stop everyone from updating to WordPress 5.0 until this is sorted out.
I would have them revert you to WordPress 4.9.3 if you have a site due today to the client… and dump Go Daddy, terrible service. They caused me nothing but problems. Constantly. WP Engine would never migrate you to a non-security release of WP the day after it’s released. Only the brave move to 5.0 without a lot of testing on a staging site.
I just updated from the dashboard (automatically) on my staging site from 4.5 to 4.5.1 and it worked fine. Hosting is WP Engine.
Since I’m on Enfold 4.5 and WP Engine too, I thought I would add that you can go into the admin panel on WP Engine and quickly change php version to see if the site crashes. If it crashes, you can quickly toggle back to the older PHP versin. I did this while support was on the line (on chat) in case something went wrong, and it worked great. Hope that helps.
My site works fine with the WP Engine preview of 7.2 and is on latest Enfold version… I am afraid to update though until mods / developers confirm that Enfold is compatible with 7.2.
(I assume you have tried disabling all plugins and then running the WP Engine emulator?)
haha yes I totally get it… but when i installed minification plugins they work for all plugins, not just certain ones….
Maybe something to flag with coders for future development?
Enjoy your coffee! :)
Hi Ismael,
I’m not a coder, though I am flattered you think I can do the above… the only filter I use is a coffee filter! haha
It seems like if Enfold is going to claim minification, the theme should minify all plugins, not just a list. And we should not need to customize code for the minification option to work since minification plugins don’t require a list of plugins.
Where do we go from here? :)
Hi Ismael,
Is this something that you and the Enfold team might continue to work on, since if it’s affecting me it’s probably affecting others?
Many thanks,
RobIt appears an Enfold mod logged in using the credentials a day or two ago but I don’t see an update on this thread…?
Ismael, haha!!! Unfortunately the compression settings don’t seem to be working….opened new thread in case you want to tackle it! :)
As a long-time Enfolder I just have to say this…
Why don’t mods create sticky about the update to 4.5 since there are so many threads on this? Title could be “Instructions on How to Update to Version 4.5”
Cheers
RobI installed plugin Smart Silder 3 pro and video works like a charm with Enfold on mobile:
To be more precise with this bug in 4.5…. it’s the search preview that is now distorted, with huge thumbnails and lack of text… but if you then click search icon, it DOES go to the results.
Yes small world… it appears that phone number is now assigned to a local real estate agent who I do know. We also live in Marin County so you guessed correctly based on my name!
So you’re saying that on your old 4.41 sites the search works but on 4.5 it does not? Just confirming for the mods.
I hug that bridge every time I cross it…. never gets old!

RobSearch is broken on the new Enfold release. I updated to Enfold 4.5 on my staging site and when I search for “21 Gilmartin” as an example, it no longer works. On my production site, with no other changes except it’s Enfold 4.41, it works fine.
Let me know if you want me to start my own thread, but I’m guessing this is relevant to this thread since I think it’s a 4.5 bug.
Cheers
RobYigit, thanks for the response. I have moved to updating via FTP most of the time anyway since the last major update, so it sounds like all I need to do is regular process (rename Enfold to Enfold old, upload new Enfold theme folder, delete Enfold old.) Then I need to go into the API and update? Or is that update only for auto theme updating?
Sorry, jet lagged!
Thanks
robThis is astounding.
An update that requires this amount of workaround should be rolled back or fixed with 4.5.1. I don’t think it’s fair to push this back on Envato — the bottom line is they are the vendor you use to sell Enfold, and their change has broken the Enfold update process.
I have read this whole thread and I’m unclear — is it OK to just update via FTP, or is there something that will still be broken with the Envato API key?
Thanks
RobGuys… come on… just release an update! Can you imagine if iPhone sent us a bunch of code to install instead of just rolling updates every few weeks? This has been going on for months with no official patch pushed…. Is Kriesi on a beach somewhere sipping a margarita?!? :)
Best
Rob
