How To Renew or Extend Support

You are eligible to renew or extend your support subscription if you have less than 6 months support remaining and the author is still supporting the item. The cost of purchasing support can vary according to the different periods of your subscription. For example, extending your support subscription while it’s still active costs less than renewing it when it has expired. To learn more about this, please read Envato’s ‘Extending and Renewing Item Support’ article found here.

Step 1 – Login to your ThemeForest account and go to the Downloads tab.

Step 2 – Locate your Phox purchase. On there, you’ll see how many months of support you have remaining, and beside it there’s an ‘Renew Now’ link. Click here to view an example.

What Will Happen If I Do Not Renew The Item Support?

The only thing that changes is that you will not be granted access to hands-on support. You will however continue to receive theme updates that contain bug fixes, patches and new features and access to our online documentation.
