GuestA friend has a site, http://www.hovan.com, that is using the Enfold theme ver. 1.9.1, with a version of WP from 2013, and an old ver. of PHP. That server is going away and he asked if I would host it for him. I copied it and installed it on our server but it did not work right at all. Updated WP to the latest, still misbehaving. It does some things (very simple site) under PHP5.6, but not 7.4. With 7.4 it just spits out error messages all over the screen.
Now the question, would an update to the theme solve this problem in all likelyhood? or will it be better to find someone and redo the site for him?
The working site is at http://www.hovan.com, the broken site is at http://www.hovan.deltaforce.net
Thanks.August 29, 2021 at 9:07 pm #1318848Hey Amnon Nissan,
Thank you for your patience, the hovan.com, site doesn’t look like a WordPress site it looks like it was created with sitecms.co
I see that your “broken” site is Enfold Version: 4.8.6.2
If the hovan.com site was Enfold v1.9.1 then it would not work with WordPress v5+ nor PHP 7+
So you would need to update and it should be updateable as out Dev Team has maintained backward compatibility on the most part, I’m not sure about v1.9.1 but I have seen a v3 site update and work.
But I don’t believe this site is an Enfold or WordPress site, I hope this helps.Best regards,

GuestDang it, just replied to you and everything got lost somehow.
To make a long story short, would you like the credentials for the cPanel where hovan.com resides now? It may look like something else, but the files and folders I can see in cPanel are WP files.After not hearing from you guys, last night I purchased the latest Enfold, and installed it, but as you can see, it did not solve the problem. I did that because your response to my question the other night whad something about “but we cannot verify that you are a customer” so I figured I’d become one :-)

GuestNevermind Mike, you are correct. there are two sites, one is hovan.com, the other is http://www.hovan.com, and no one knew it. It is a long story. So we are going to build a new WP site, using your theme, and copying the current text and images to it.
Thank you.
