    We are trying to update enfold child theme from 4.1.2 to 4.5 is not working but it says:

    We tried generating a new API code with no results. We are on godaddy WordPress deluxe hosting plan.

    Also, how do we update enfold child theme without losing our customization?

    The update process is starting. This process may take a while on some hosts, so please be patient.

    Enabling Maintenance mode…

    Updating Theme Enfold (1/1)

    Downloading update from …
    An error occurred while updating Enfold: Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.
    Disabling Maintenance mode…

    All updates have been completed.

    Go Back to Enfold Child Theme Panel

    It has to do with the new API envato is using.

    The following steps will solve the issue:

    1. Download the latest Enfold update from themeforest
    2. Open the admin part of your wordpress site and download the pluging called Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File
    >make sure you select the option within this plugin to generate an automated backup from your current theme
    3. Go to themes, upload the entire enfold zip-file and install the new theme (do not delete any old theme from the theme overview)
    > the plugin will update the theme without overwriting any other things; it justs updated the theme.
    4. Activate the theme

    There is a problem with Envato and this requires a different way of updating for this version. Here is how I did it and it worked fine for me:
    the easiest and quickest way to update to v4.5 is if you have CPanel access to your site:

    1. Download the “Installable WordPress file only” from your Themeforest account

    2. Login to your website’s CPanel – normally found at yourwebsite.com/cpanel

    3. Open File Manager and navigate to the \wp-content\themes\ directory of your website

    4. Rename the Enfold folder to Enfold-old

    5. Upload the ZIP file you downloaded in step 1 to \wp-content\themes\

    6. Extract the ZIP file you uploaded in step 5 to \wp-content\themes\

    7. Delete the ZIP file you uploaded in step 5

    When you check your website’s WordPress admin you will be updated to v4.5.
    The previous version of Enfold will still be there – you can delete this if you are happy that the update has worked okay.

    Thank you for your help, we tried with your instructions but it did not work.

    Should we update parent or child first? Also, do we use enfold full theme download that includes content or just the theme file?

    Thank You

    Hi flyworxatl,

    What exactly did not work? You should only update the parent, and all you need are the theme files. No content is required.

    Best regards,
