Keeping your Jobify theme up to date is essential to receive new features, bug fixes, and security improvements. Here’s the recommended and safest way to update your theme using the built-in update system powered by your Astoundify and Envato accounts.

⚙️ Before You Begin

• Make sure the Jobify Core plugin is installed and activated. This plugin is required to receive update notices and connect your Envato account.
• Ensure your site is running a recent version of WordPress and all plugins are up to date.
• If you’ve customized the theme, ensure you are using a Child Theme to avoid losing changes.

🛠 Recommended Method: Automatic Updates

Jobify supports automatic updates via your Envato account connection.

1. From your WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance ▸ Getting Started.
2. Connect your Astoundify account with your Envato account by following the on-screen prompts.
3. Once connected, your site will check for updates and notify you when a new version of Jobify is available.
4. To update, go to Appearance ▸ Themes, hover over Jobify, and click Update (if available).

✅ That’s it! Your theme is now updated without needing to delete or re-upload anything manually.

📦 Alternative Method: Manual Update via Upload

If you prefer or need to update the theme manually, follow these steps:

1. Visit your ThemeForest Downloads page.
2. Download the latest version of the theme using the “Installable WordPress file only” option.
3. In your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Appearance ▸ Themes.
4. Deactivate and then delete the current Jobify theme only if you have not made changes to its core files (you should always use a child theme for customizations).
5. Click Add New ▸ Upload Theme ▸ Choose File and select the newly downloaded jobify.zip.
6. Click Install Now and then Activate.
