Using our Elegant Updater Plugin, you can update the Divi Builder right from your dashboard.

Updating Your Themes & Plugins

Before you can update, you must authenticate your Elegant Themes subscription by inputting your Username and API Key into the Updates tab of your theme or plugin settings.

Only members with active Elegant Themes accounts have access to the latest versions of our products.

Your Username is the username you use when logging in to ElegantThemes.com, and your API Key can be found by logging into your Elegant Themes account and clicking on the Account menu item → Username and API key.

Once you have authenticated your account, you can click the update link when you receive an update notification to update your theme or plugin automatically.

Update Notifications

When new updates become available for any of our themes or plugins, a notification will appear in the Dashboard Updates page of your website's WordPress Dashboard.

Authenticating Your Membership

To authenticate your account, you will be asked to input two pieces of information into your theme or plugin settings panel:

  1. Your Username

  2. Your API Key. Your Username is the username you use when logging in to ElegantThemes.com, and your API Key can be found by logging into your Elegant Themes account and clicking on the Account menu item → Username and API key.

  3. If you haven't created any API Key so far, click on the Generate New API key button:

  4. If an API key has already been created, copy its value.

  5. Go to Divi → Plugin Options → Updates tab and enter your information.

Once you have entered your credentials, you can update your plugin.

  1. Click on the Dashboard Updates tab

  2. Update your theme or plugin normally using the WordPress update interface.

If you do not see any update notifications or receive an authentication error when updating, try waiting a bit and then checking back later. Sometimes WordPress will cache update notifications, which can take some time to appear correctly.
