  FTP Upload

  Envato Market supports FTP uploading for faster and more reliable uploads of large and multiple files. You can upload items from all content types via FTP, but there are slight differences between them, which we’ll explore further out below.

  Please note: you will need to have an FTP client installed before following the processes below. We recommend FileZilla’s FTP client and have documented the process using this third-party software. However, you may be more familiar with and are welcome to use an alternative FTP client.

  You’ll need an API key to use as your password for FTP upload. If you haven’t got this yet, simply:

  • Visit https://build.envato.com/create-token/
  • Choose a token name
  • In the permissions list below, make sure to check ‘View and search Envato sites’ and ‘View your Envato Account username’.
  • Then, click Create Token

  Please follow this process for Stock Footage and Motion Graphics Items.

  1. Open your FTP client and enter the following details:

  • Host: ftp.author.envato.com
  • Username: [your Envato username] (this is case-sensitive)
  • Password: [your Envato API key]
  • Port: 21
  • Encryption: Use explicit FTP over TLS
  • Click 'Connect' or your FTP client equivalent.

  

  2. Drag your files into the upload area of the FTP client.

  3. Wait for your files to process, and then close your FTP client.

  

  4. Go to the Stock Video uploader. Your files will be there ready and waiting.

  FTP Upload of Model or Property Releases

  If you have Model or Property Releases that you want to upload via FTP you need to create a folder called “releases” and upload all of your releases in that folder.

  To ensure any releases uploaded via FTP are mapped to your videos you need to upload a metadata CSV file for your videos in the Stock Video uploader.

  Release forms should be .JPG, .PNG or .PDF, and should not be zipped.

  Need help? Check out the FTP troubleshooting guide in section 12 of the Uploading FAQ’s.

• Themes and Code

  All Theme and Code items can be uploaded through your Author Dashboard on either ThemeForest or CodeCanyon. For how to do this, see: How To Upload Your Items to Envato. Here, we explain how to get your Web and Code items to Envato Elements. Select below:

  Web and Code items on Envato Elements

  Template Kits on Envato Elements

  Web and Code items on Envato Elements

  Web and code items are integrated between ThemeForest on Envato Market and Envato Elements to make the experience of contributing CMS & HTML Templates to Elements easier.

  This works by entering your specific item ID from ThemeForest or CodeCanyon to create a link between the two items, and then bringing across the zip asset file and live preview URL in the Elements App.

  The CMS Templates Item Type on Elements includes the following categories:

  • Drupal
  • Instapage
  • Joomla
  • Magento
  • Muse
  • OpenCart
  • PrestaShop
  • Shopify
  • Unbounce
  • WordPress

  The Web Templates Item Type on Elements includes the following categories:

  • Site Templates
  • Landing Page Templates

  There are two separate Item Types for Admin or Email Templates:

  • Admin Templates
  • Email Templates

  Given the complex nature of these items they must be approved by the ThemeForest or CodeCanyon review teams and exist on Envato Market.

  Please follow the detailed steps below to contribute your web and code items from Envato Market to Envato Elements:

  1. Login to Elements Author with your Envato account.
  2. Head over to your My Items dashboard.
  3. Select CMS Templates, Web Templates, Admin Templates or Email Templates from the Item Type dropdown.
  4. Input the ThemeForest Item ID for the item you wish to contribute to Elements (the item ID can be located in the item URL - e.g. https://themeforest.net/item/item-name/12345678
  5. Select the Create Item button to begin the upload process.
  6. The zip file asset and the live preview URL will both be transported over to Elements via integration with ThemeForest. As a result, these two assets are not editable during upload (when you update the items zip asset on ThemeForest the update will also flow through to Envato Elements).
  7. Only the zip asset file and live preview URL are inserted via the link with Envato Market. Fill in all other required details as accurately as you can and pay strict attention to our Quality Expectations. More specifically, please consider how you can best present your items on Envato Elements.

  It is a requirement that items of these types exist on ThemeForest, however that does not mean you should contribute all of your items to Envato Elements. Please avoid older items and focus on your modern, clean and well-presented templates.

  A note on author collaboration and partnerships: We're aware that some authors on ThemeForest collaborate or obtain permission from the original designer to create new items with the original author's design. Please keep in mind that Elements is a separate platform to Envato Market and it is your responsibility to ensure you have the rights to list your item on Elements as per the Author Agreement.

  Template Kits on Envato Elements

  1. Items must first be published to ThemeForest on Envato Market.
  2. Template Kits are then transferred to Elements automatically - don't worry, we will do this for you!

  Remember - you need to first be approved as an Envato Elements author. Apply Here!

• Graphics

  How you upload your items depends on the type of graphic you are submitting. For most Graphics, you will use the Elements Contributor Dashboard. The only exception is for Animated Graphics, which are uploaded via the Portfolio Manager.

  Please select the guide that matches your item type:

  • All other Graphic items to Envato Elements

  • Animated Graphics to Envato Elements

  • Graphic items to Envato Market

  Upload Graphic Items to Envato Elements

  If you have been invited to contribute to Envato Elements, you can upload your graphic items to sell on Envato Elements through the Elements Contributor Dashboard.

  Unlike the other content types, graphic items do not need to be uploaded through Envato Market before being added to Envato Elements.

  You will only have access to the Elements Contributor Dashboard if you have been invited to contribute to Elements for Graphics. If you’re interested in being considered for Elements, please apply here.

  Upload Animated Graphics to Portfolio Manager

  Here’s how to get your Animated Graphics items onto Envato Elements.

  Before You Begin: Requirements & Metadata

  Before you can submit an item for review, make sure it meets these minimum requirements:

  • A Title (under 100 characters)
  • A Description

  • Click Done: This will return you to your main portfolio. You can find your recent uploads by using the ‘Item State’ filter and selecting ‘Not Submitted’.

    

  How to Add or Edit Tags

  Pasting a List of Tags

  You can quickly add a list of comma-separated or pipe-separated tags to an item.

  1. From your portfolio, click on an item to open the detailed view.

     

  2. Select Author Tags List.

     

  3. Copy and paste your list of tags into the field and click SAVE. The tags will then be added to the item.

     

     

  Editing Tags in a Batch

  To add the same tags to multiple items at once:

  1. From your portfolio, select all the items you want to edit by ticking the checkbox on each item.

  Once submitted, your animated graphics will enter the review queue.

  Understanding Item Status & Next Steps

  You can track the status of your items directly in the Portfolio Manager, so you won't receive an email with the review decision. Here’s what each status means:

  

  • Approved: Your item has been approved and will be published on Envato Elements.
  • Rejected: The review team has provided feedback on why the item was not approved. You can see this feedback in the Portfolio Manager. Eligible for Resubmission: If an item is rejected, it may be eligible for resubmission. Make the required changes based on the feedback, and you can submit it again.

  For instructions on how to edit or delete your items, please see our article: How to Manage your Items with Portfolio Manager.

  Upload Graphic Items to GraphicRiver (Envato Market)

• Photos

  This guide will walk you through preparing and uploading your photos using the Portfolio Manager.

  • Before You Begin: Requirements & Metadata
  • How to Upload Photos
  • How to Add or Edit Tags
  • How to Handle Model & Property Releases

  • Understanding Next Steps

  Before You Begin: Requirements & Metadata

  To ensure your photos are approved successfully, you must meet our technical and content requirements. Please review our guide on Photos: Item Preparation & Technical Requirements before you start.

  Metadata

  The Portfolio Manager automatically reads the title, description, and tags directly from your photo's metadata.

  • Embed your metadata first: To make your workflow more efficient, always embed the title, description, and tags into your photo's metadata before uploading.
  • The metadata title is key: The title assigned in the metadata will be used, regardless of the actual file name.

  Technical Requirements Checklist

  An item cannot be submitted for review until it meets these minimum requirements:

  • A Title (under 100 characters)
  • A Description
  • At least 1 and no more than 50 Author Tags
  • RGB color format
  • JPG or JPEG file format

  Note on Upload Limits: While there is no hard limit on the number of files you can upload, we recommend uploading fewer than 50,000 files at once to ensure your web browser performs well.

  Once the upload is finished, you have two options:

  • Click Edit Your Assets: This is the recommended next step. It takes you to a view of the photos you just uploaded so you can make changes, assign releases, and submit them for review.

  2. In the right-hand panel, select Batch Edit.
  3. Add or remove tags as needed.
  4. Click Save after each edit and then click Apply.

     

  How to Handle Model & Property Releases

  To streamline the upload process, you are no longer required to upload model or property release forms upfront. However, you must have obtained these documents and be able to provide them if requested by Envato. You should always keep a record of all your release forms.

  You must acknowledge that you have a release for any photo that contains a recognizable person or property.

  • For a single photo: Select the photo. In the 'Overview' panel on the right, tick the ‘Release Form(s)' checkbox.

    

  • For a batch of photos: Select all relevant photos. In the right-hand panel, go to Batch Edit and check the box under 'I have Release Form(s)', then click Apply.

    

  When you have successfully acknowledged a release form, the following message will be displayed on your photo.

  

  How to Submit Photos for Review

  You can submit photos one at a time or in a batch by changing their item state.

  • Submit an individual photo: Select the photo. In the 'Overview' panel on the right, change the 'Item State' to 'Submitted for review' and click Save.

    

  • Submit a batch of photos: Select all the photos you want to submit. In the right-hand panel, change the 'Item State' to 'Submitted for review' and click Save.
