Copy your token code from the "Success" screen (this is important since Envato doesn't store it for you) and click the **Got it** button.

**That's it!**

{% hint style="success" %}
That will update only the theme, you still have to **update the bundled plugins**
{% endhint %}

### <mark style="color:blue;">Step 4</mark> - Update bundled plugins

After the theme update always check **Appearance → Install Plugins** for any plugin updates
