How do I update my ThemeForest theme?

NOTICE: If direct customizations have been made to the parent theme, they will be overwritten when the theme is updated. The recommended way to apply theme file customizations is to use a  child theme.

There are a two ways to update our WordPress themes to latest version:

Method 1: Install the WordPress Envato Market plugin

Once installed, activated, and setup, the Envato Market plugin will display a notice in your WordPress dashboard when an update is available. To setup:

  1. Download the Envato Market plugin and install it through the WordPress Dashboard at: Appearance > Widgets
  2. Activate the plugin.
  3. Navigate to the Envato Market menu, follow the instructions to generate a Global OAuth Personal Token, and enter the Token in your WordPress Dashboard:


Method 2: Manually install a new version of the theme:

  1. Backup the current version of the theme.
  2. Delete the old version and reinstall the latest version. You will not be able to install the new version while the old version is still installed.
