This is all very confusing. So, I bought the enfold theme at themeforest.net. They send me to envato.com to connect the theme to my wordpress site. But I have to have an account here to get questions answered. Have I got that right? Three different logins for one theme.
Here’s my question, The connection between my site and envato says that my enfold theme is up to date, version 5.0, I come here and see that it’s actually up to version 5.6.9. How do I update to the latest version on my website?
With other themes all I have to do is click an update button. I see no such thing for this one, so how to I make this happen?
Thanks,

Hey dloverly,
Thanks for your question, Envato is the parent of themeforest
Unfortunately a while back Envato (Theme Forest) changed how updates are done so if you are using v5 you will need get the latest version from your Envato account and manually update, then after you update you can create a Envato Token in your Theme Forest account so that future updates can be done easily, but your current version will not work with the Envato Token.
To update your version of Enfold you will need to download the latest installable WP version from your Theme Forest account and upload it to your WordPress ▸ Appearance ▸ Themes ▸ Add Themes ▸ Add New
after you choose the zip file and click install, you will see a This theme is already installed message because you are updating, you can continue
then you will see the Theme updated successfully message.
Best regards,
Mike
