Hey there,
I face the situation that a client reached out to me to update their WordPress website.
They are currently running on the very old Enfold version 4.5.1 which dates back to October 2018.
Current WordPress version they use is 6.4.6, so not too old.
I’d like to install the newest Enfold version (currently 7.1.1). However, I wonder if such a big upgrade step would work smoothly.
Are there any known upgrade gotchas I should be aware of?
Best regards
RobertHey rmoestl,
The update to 7.1.1 has to be done manually from the version you are running, please refer to my replies in this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/#post-1021541
You can either update manually via FTP: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#theme-update, or upload the theme as if it was new under Appearance->Themes->Add New Theme.
If that doesn’t work then please try to delete the whole theme folder, then replace it with the new version. Make sure that you have backups of the site before starting updating.
Also please read this after you have updated: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/Best regards,
Rikard
