    Hi all,

    What is the best way to update the parent theme?

    Manually always?

    Or can i go though the appearance tab and switch back to the parent theme, update it, and then switch back to the child?

    Also what theme so i put all my plugins, security or otherwise?

    thx in advance.

    Hi fgrippe!

    You can add the themeforest information into the update field in the theme options and update right from the child theme. See: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/updating-your-theme-files/

    Its the same thing for a child theme or parent since the auto update from within wordpress updates the parent theme only.

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    It takes 12 hours after adding the information in for the first check to run. If it doesn’t show up after that point then the key isn’t correct or the username isn’t correct.

    You can contact ThemeForest support if you think there might be an error happening and want to update from within WordPress as the theme implements ThemeForest’s update plugin and we don’t have any tools to diagnose or troubleshoot it unfortunately.

    Regards,
    Devin

    Hey!

    Also, try logging out and in again on wordpress dashboard. Maybe this is just a cache issue.

    Cheers!
