Introduction

As you probably already know, WordPress has a mechanism that detects that the plugins, themes and the kernel itself WordPress have updates. Notify the user when they are available, to receive information about these updates and allows you to automatically install them. However, this only applies to plugins and templates so placed in repositories of WordPress.

Of course, there are ways to extend this mechanism for plugins and themes published on other servers. In the network there are many scripts for the ability to upgrade from GitHub and even from your own server. There are scripts to update with Market Envato (ThemeForest and CodeCanyon). However, all the scripts for the access to the Envato API, which are used today is obsolete because from June 2016 old Envato API will be closed. You must now use the new Envato API. I had to write the script yourself.
