How To Generate A Token

Click on this Generate A Personal Token link.

IMPORTANT: You must be logged into the same Themeforest account that purchased Avada. If you are logged in already, look in the top menu bar to ensure it is the right account. If you are not logged in, you will be directed to login then directed back to the Create A Token Page.

Enter a name for your token, then check the boxes for:

• View Your Envato Account Username

• Download Your Purchased Items

• List Purchases You’ve Made

• Verify Purchases You’ve Made from the permissions needed section.

Check the box to agree to the terms and conditions, then click the Create Token button.

A new page will load with a token number in a box. Copy the token number then come back to this registration page and paste it into the field below and click the Submit button.

You will see a green check mark for success, or a failure message if something went wrong. If it failed, please make sure you followed the steps above correctly. You can also view our documentation post for various fallback methods.
