Hello everyone.
Quick situation : Old client waking up / Have made the wordpress updates but none of the Enfolds.
We are right now with WordPress 5.4 and Enfold 3.8.
What is the best way to update enfold without crashing the entire website ?
Thanks.
Hi Pascal!
What I would do is to backup the site, database and Enfold settings. Delete 3.8 and install the latest Enfold version. Import the Enfold settings afterwards. Make sure, if you have made any changes in the functions.php or other files, to backup those too and use a child theme.
Maybe you need to do some tiny adjustments in the new system, but it shouldn’t crash.
Good luck
.
Best
MartinHi PascalStifani,
Sorry for the problem. The update to 4.7.x 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 use a plugin to upload the theme zip file: https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-theme-and-plugins-from-zip-file/
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.
After you have updated then try to activate the Classic Editor in the main page of the theme options.
Also please read this after you have updated: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/
Best regards,
Rikard
