Hello,
I am using Enfold Theme version 4.3.2. I purchased and downloaded the latest version from ThemeForest. I am also using Enfold Child Version: 1.0.
Question: How do I update the theme now?
Do I simply delete the enfold folder in “wp-content/themes”? Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any instructions on the website.
Currently, PHP (7.3.33) is still running, and this also needs to be changed. I would like to take the intermediate step to 7.4 and then to 8.5. Is this possible with the Enfold Theme I am currently using?
I would be grateful if you could help me.
Best regards, Erik
Hey Erik,
The update to 7.1.4 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/
Best regards,
Rikard
