    Hi

    I have inherited a wordpress site built with Enfold. Unfortunately the client is no longer in contact with the original designer who purchased the theme on his TF account.

    I need to upgrade Enfold but I dont have access to he original purchase account. Is there anything you can suggest to help please?

    Thanks
    Tim

    Hey Tim,

    Thanks for contacting us!

    I am afraid the only way to get full support and theme updates is by having access to a Themeforest account which was used to purchase the theme.

    The easiest way would be to get in touch with your developer and ask him for the purchase code and a Personal Token. That would allow you to create a forum account here (one that got access to more than the pre-sale question area) and would also allow you to update the theme from your backend.

    If you cant get in touch with your developer for whatever reason, you can also try to contact Envato support and ask them if its possible for them to credit the purchase to a Themeforest account of your own: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
    However this will probably only work if your developer already sent you a payment receipt or something similar for the purchase.

    Last option would be to create a themeforest account of your own and use it to re-purchase the theme.

    I hope one of the first two options works out for you, but unfortunately we can’t help until we have a valid verification that the theme was purchased properly. This is necessary for us, since there are quite a few people out there who don’t buy the theme on themeforest and instead download it for free on illegal file sharing sites and then even have the audacity to ask us for support.

    Sorry for that!

    Best regards,
    Yigit

    Hi

    Thanks for your response..

    There is no way we can get in contact with the original designer, so we have repurchased the theme as you advised..

    I added my TF username and api key to the theme config and attempted the update, however it gives an error during the update:

    An error occurred while updating Enfold: Download failed. Problem downloading theme

    Please can you advise how to resolve this asap.. thanks

    Hi,

    Which version of the theme are you currently using? If older than 4.5, please refer to this post – https://kriesi.at/support/topic/updating-to-enfold-4-5-and-validating-personal-token/ and update the theme manually. Older versions need to be updated manually due to changes in Envato API.

    Best regards,
    Yigit
