Firstly, you need to download the new theme package from your Themeforest account. Once you have the new theme package, you can choose to upload the theme via WordPress or via FTP.

Method 1: Automatic Update by Using Envato Market Plugin

Step 1: Install and activate the “Envato Market” plugin manually.
Step 2: From WordPress Admin Panel, navigate to “Envato Market” menu.
Step 3: In this page, you’ll find a field for insering Envato Token. Insert your Envato Token Code from there. You can generate this code from this link: https://build.envato.com/create-token/?purchase:download=t&purchase:verify=t&purchase:list=t .
Remember, while generating the token, you have to login using the same envato id which you used to purchase theme.
Step 4: After completed the above steps successfully, Navigate to Appearance -> Themes. Here you’ll see an “Update now” link beside your theme. Click on that link and your theme will be updated automatically.
