To keep things safe please consider backing up your website and database before doing any updates to your website.

If there is a specific procedure required during the update, this will be shared on the Facebook and X (Twitter) pages.

Automatic Theme Update

You can get automatic theme updates with help of Envato Market plugin. Watch an instructional video on how to use the plugin, or read a complete, illustrated instructions on how to use it.

Tip: Automatic update failed?

If automatic update fails for whatever reason, please update the theme manually

Manual Theme Update

Download the theme ZIP package from where you've obtained it originally. Then follow the steps below:

Updating via WordPress dashboard

A simple way of doing a manual theme update is deleting and reinstalling the theme directly via WordPress dashboard. You can read an article or watch a video on how to do this.

Updating via FTP

This is more advanced manual update procedure and you will need an FTP client (such as FileZilla) to connect to your server:

1. Download the newest theme ZIP file from where you've obtained it and unpack the ZIP file on your computer.

2. Now you will need an FTP client to connect to your server.

3. On your server navigate to WORDPRESS_FOLDER/wp-content/themes/ folder.

4. Delete the existing ileana folder (or create a backup just in case - you can do this simply by renaming the folder name by appending .backup to its name so it becomes ileana.backup, for example).

5. Copy the unpacked theme ileana folder from your computer (from step 1 above) into WORDPRESS_FOLDER/wp-content/themes/ folder on your server.

6. Log into your WordPress admin area and check the version of the theme in Appearance → Themes. Your theme should be updated now. (And you can delete the ileana.backup folder from step 4 above.)
