    Hello,

    You need update the theme manually via FTP:

    You can download the latest version of the Royal theme here:

    HI Robert

    You are kidding, right? There is no way on planet earth my client will ever be able to handle FTP updates for the theme or even the plugins. They can barely create a post!

    They say that everything else is automatically updated so why should they pay me to update your theme or its plugins manually!

    Are you looking into the possibility of auto updating?? The way WordPress and WooCommerce are updating so regularly these days – its a vital requirement.

    I think that this is a serious limitation with your theme, I am afraid. (Was just about to purchase the theme again for a gaming company as your gaming layout kicks butt!! )

    Look forward to your response.

    Hello,

    Please refer to this article:
    http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-update-themeforest-themes-with-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit/

    Concerning the plugins, you have to update some of them via FTP only, because you don’t have license keys as the plugins (such as Visual Composer, Revolution Slider and so on) are included in the theme and they can’t be updated automatically. Other way you have to purchase these plugins yourself and you’ll be able to update them via wp-admin panel. This is how it works for all themes on Themeforest and not only in our case.

    Thank you.

    Regards,
