I’m running 3.6.1 on several websites and after this last WordPress update features are not working. I tried the API from the theme update area in the enfold theme options – that isn’t working. I tried manually from that area and that doesn’t work.
May 7, 2021 at 1:48 am #12988653.6.1 Version concerning to? WordPress, Enfold ?
if 3.6.1 is the version of Enfold and you now on WordPress 5.7.1 then I guess the only useful way to perform an update is via ftp.
try this : https://kriesi.at/support/topic/some-hints-and-advice-to-update-enfold/#post-1056107
If you are not familiar with ftp clients – see here some hints: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/install-enfold-theme/#ftp-installMay 7, 2021 at 1:59 am #1298866when i inspect your (suspected) homepage your on Enfold: 4.2.3 and WP: 5.6.3 – but even with version 4.2.3 the update step is so big that I would also recommend updating Enfold via ftp first, and then updating to WP 5.7.1.
It is also recommended to check the php version with your provider. For me Enfold 4.8.2 and WP 5.7.1 runs stable on php8.May 7, 2021 at 6:05 am #12988733.6.1 version is Enfold. so there is no way to update at this point from the WordPress dashboard?
May 7, 2021 at 9:38 am #1298885And your WordPress Version is ?
( maybe read here : https://wptavern.com/after-11-years-users-will-be-able-to-update-themes-and-plugins-via-a-zip-file )
Since WP 5.7 you can Update via Dashboard on : Appearance – Themes : “Add New” – “Upload Theme” – then insert the new Enfold.zip file ( be sure it is the installable zip file only ) – and click “Install Now”
This Wordprss will recognize that it is an always installed Enfold and will ask what to do with the older one.
You can click : “Replace”.On former times there was that liitle Plugin “Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File” that offers this feature – but now WordPress has implemented that.
But: – for me the safest method is and remains the way via ftp upload.

May 7, 2021 at 6:17 pm #1299015thanks! i’m running wordpress 5.7.1. i have 23 licenses for enfold – does it matter which one I download to use for one of my sites that I will try the FTP route?
May 7, 2021 at 8:09 pm #1299030one important point is the included jQuery Version – which is now 3.5.1
The New Enfold 4.8.2 will run under these conditions. But if you are running a child-theme with a few functions.php snippets inside – it will be important to look if you have some functions in it with:$(window).load(function(){ // which is now deprecated and should be replaced by: $(window).on('load', function(){ // and same thing here - the .click(function(){ // now replaced by: .on('click', function(){
i would try on a page where you have a good backup the way i’m talking above with dashboard and uploading the installable zip file of enfold.
This is probably the most time saving way.
The other way via ftp upload is the safest way, because you still have that rollback then.May 10, 2021 at 4:58 am #1299213Hi skagitmarketing,
Sorry for the late reply. It doesn’t matter which one of your licenses you use, the theme files are the same for all of them. Once you have updated, then please refer to this on how to register your license: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/
Best regards,
