I have a client that has a ten year old site with Enfold 4.2.5 installed as their WordPress theme. They never setup a child theme. I removed all plugins that won’t work with WordPress 6.4.3 and disabled all the others. When I update to PHP 8.0 the site crashes and gives me a message that it can’t find layout.php within the theme or some similarly named file. That causes me to think that the age of the theme is the issue. Were there updates to the theme that could solve this issue and telling my client to just purchase the theme will solve?
Hey Andrew Frahm,
Thanks for your question v4.2.5 in not compatible with WordPress v6+ or PHP v8+
You will need to update, we are now up to v5.6.9 and works with PHP v8+
Envato (Theme Forest) changed how the updates were delivered a while back so your version will not be able to update automatically, please follow these steps to manually update:
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
