Enfold theme menu disappeared after WP 5.5.1. update?

Hi,

Can you try to install and activate this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-jquery-migrate-helper/
Wordpress 5.5 has made a major change which includes the removal of jQuery migrate plugin which is used by many plugins and themes, including the Enfold theme, with this plugin jQuery migrate is plugged in back to the site and most likely would fix that issue. This incompatibility issue was fixed beginning with Enfold 4.7.6.2 so we suggest to update to the latest version of Enfold so you can deactivate and remove this plugin unless some plugins haven’t updated yet for WP 5.5.

Best regards,
Nikko

Hi BlueSolution,
Try to use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-theme-and-plugins-from-zip-file/ and do the following steps:

1. Make sure this plugin is installed and activated.
2. Download zip file of your theme’s most recent version.
3. Log in to WordPress as and Admin and go to Appearance > Themes.
4. Click on the ADD NEW button.
5. Click on the UPLOAD THEME button.
6. Click BROWSE and choose your zip file you downloaded.
7. Click the INSTALL NOW button.

If it fails for some reason, you can do manual updating via FTP: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-update/#update-via-ftp (I would suggest via cPanel since FTP is slow)
Let us know if it helps.

Hi BlueSolution,

You’re still using Enfold 3.8 which is already an outdated version.
The current version is Enfold 4.7.6.3, and you won’t be able to update it via Theme Options because Envato has already disabled updates via API key and is now using tokens, so it’s not possible to do using the usual process, that’s why I suggested the solution above.
Also since you are updating from a very old version, I would highly suggest a backup as unexpected issues might arise.

Hi BlueSolution,

I would only suggest the most recent version which is 4.7.6.3 as older versions (except 4.7.6.2) is not fully compatible with WordPress 5.5.
Regarding to your question, it doesn’t matter which site it is for as long as you have downloaded it from themeforest, you can use it.
However, when it comes to theme registration you need to specifically generate the token using the account you used to purchase it.
Here’s the link on how you can generate the envato personal token: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/#how-to-generate-a-envato-personal-token
Theme registration is important because it validates your purchase and allows you to do the theme updates.
