Theme Automatic Updates

If you have made any changes to theme files (e.g. header.php, footer.php, style.css ), updating the theme will overwrite your modified files and you will loose any customizations. For safe updates please enable the Child theme and do any customizations there.

All our themes sold on Themeforest can be updated using the Envato Market plugin that. It is advised to use the plugin to help you get a nice updating experience for all your Envato purchased items.

Plugin Installation

  1. Download Envato Market Plugin from this page https://envato.com/market-plugin/

The next step is to generate a Personal API token. You can follow this link to generate it https://build.envato.com/create-token

To generate the token you need to login using your Envato username and password.

Give your token a name, read and agree to the terms and then create your token using the button at the end of the page
