Hi,
We have recently released Enfold 4.5 which has many improvements that you can read on our blog. Due to changes in theme updater, manual update will be necessary and we are going to talk about it in this post.
Envato has updated their API and we have switched to it in Enfold 4.5. Older versions of Envato API was deprecated and no longer works reliable. Enfold 4.4.1 was the last Enfold version that used old API version and that is why we are going to need to update our themes manually and start using Personal Tokens instead of API keys from now on to update our themes from WordPress dashboard.
Updating Enfold to 4.5
You can either update the theme via FTP or using “Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File” plugin. Please firstly download Enfold 4.5 from your ThemeForest account in downloads page.Here are the steps to update with the plugin:
1- Please install the plugin and activate it: Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File
2- Go to WordPress > Themes > Add New > Upload
3- After the install, click “Return to Themes page” (NOT Activate)
4- Success
To update the theme via FTP, you can refer to this post. When updating the theme via FTP, we would recommend you to delete the theme first and then re-install to make sure all files are overwritten.
Validating Personal Token
Please see How to generate a Envato Personal Token? section on our documentation for instructions. Please make sure you set required Token permissions. If you have set them but still having issues validating your Personal Token, please try validating it in incognito mode.That’s it! You have updated the theme and validated your personal token!
If you had any issues, please feel free to start a new thread under Enfold sub forum and we will gladly help you :)
Regards,

I installed the plugin, then went to my envato account and downloaded the enfold theme, but when I try to upload it I am getting this message:
The link you followed has expired. I tried several time. I tried two ways
1. I downloaded just the the theme (themeforest-4519990-enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme-wordpress-theme.zip)
2. I tried again this time downloading “all files and documentation”, unzipped it and tried uploading just “enfold.zip”Could it be that they want me to buy another license? I am using the theme on more than one site and purchased it quite a while ago. I currently have 4.41 installed on this site.
November 14, 2018 at 10:06 am #1033396Hey @cagraphicdesign,
Downloading only installable version and uploading it should have worked.
Could you please post WP admin logins here privately so we can look into it? :)Cheers!
YigitNovember 14, 2018 at 12:46 pm #1033480Hi,
I was also trying to update my enfold theme and this solution worked for me!
Thanks Yigit!
November 14, 2018 at 4:03 pm #1033536November 14, 2018 at 4:05 pm #1033537I have a problem verifying my token with the new API system. I have several websites with different hosting providers, most of them work without a problem… there are however two sites where the verification seems to be blocked. Can you tell me what connection protocol/type/port is being used to verify the token? So I can check with the hosting provider if this protocol/type/port is currently blocked or not….

November 14, 2018 at 6:59 pm #1033614This reply has been marked as private.November 14, 2018 at 8:02 pm #1033632Help please… I did not create my website using a child theme. I know you gave me instructions for what to do last time there was an update but I can’t find them.
I didn’t make any major changes to the theme, mostly styles within the control panel.
THANK YOU!
November 14, 2018 at 8:05 pm #1033634Hello Yigit,
I followed the instructions for upgrading to 4.5 using the plugin, and it worked great! Thank you!
I am having trouble finding the information on how to create the API key. I looked in the documentation folder and couldn’t find anything. (?)
Would you kindly post those steps here?
Nevermind — found it here: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#theme-registration
Thank you.

November 14, 2018 at 8:06 pm #1033635Hello Lisa,
I have a child theme and just followed the steps on here as listed and everything seems fine so far,
November 14, 2018 at 8:19 pm #1033639Just be sure to go to Appearance > Themes and reactivate your Child Theme again :)
November 15, 2018 at 8:29 am #1033822Hi,
Thanks for sharing @dbtpath :-)
Did you get your problem solved @HoffmanLisa? If not then please post a new thread and we’ll help you out there.
Best regards,
RikardNovember 15, 2018 at 11:55 am #1033899Hey Guys,
I am a Webdeveloper and bought 15 Licenses for my clients using my personal Envato account. Do I have to register now 15 Personal Tokens or just one ?November 15, 2018 at 1:08 pm #1033920Hey!
@hoffmanlisa i updated the theme on your installation using “Update Theme and Plugins from Zip File” plugin and then deleted it. Please review your website :)
@oversberg I believe you are going to need to register Personal Token for each license. We are in touch with Envato’s author support team regarding that as there are some other users who would like use a single Personal Token for multiple sites. We will share more information soon.Regards,

November 15, 2018 at 3:43 pm #1034006@Yigit: could you please answer my question?
November 15, 2018 at 3:51 pm #1034009Is a special php version required ?
November 15, 2018 at 8:18 pm #1034122Hi Yigit
The odd thing is that I was able to update the other sites just the normal update way. It took a few tries with and without transient cleaner activated. but now they are all updated to 4.5 except for this one.The only thing about this site is that the client needs to have the home page redirecting to another site temporarily so if you key in https://www.leadershippowerforwomen.com/ it will roll over to another site. However, if you key in any other page they will NOT redirect. Could this possibly create a problem?
That said I am giving you login credentials in private contentNovember 16, 2018 at 10:52 am #1034358I can’t update 4.5. it said it couldn’t find style.css.
what should i do?- This reply was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by ngavy.

November 20, 2018 at 6:38 pm #1035726I updated the theme to 4.5 via FTP and I created a new private token, but when I press “Check the private token” the process is locked on “Save all changes” and nothing happens, what should I do?
November 20, 2018 at 7:14 pm #1035738@yigit YOU DA MAN! followed your instructions and everything went great.
Thank youNovember 20, 2018 at 9:29 pm #1035798I have tried again into “incognito mode” and finally it worked! Tnx

November 21, 2018 at 3:20 pm #1036099I have tried using the “incognito mode” (google for incognito mode chrome / Firefox) and it worked!
But on one Installation I the following error appears:
Warning: array_flip(): Can only flip STRING and INTEGER values! in/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/php/class-htmlhelper.php on line 1571
Warning: array_flip(): Can only flip STRING and INTEGER values! in /htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/php/class-htmlhelper.php on line 1571
November 21, 2018 at 4:18 pm #1036143cwirth, I got this same problem. Turns out my upload limit was set to 2 meg (wordpress only files are over 17).
I don’t know how to increase the the theme upload limit, but was able to go to my web host and install via FTP.
Maybe you can do the same? -
