Install GeneratePress
The first step you need to do is installing GeneratePress. GeneratePress is the free theme which is required to be installed and activated in order to use GP Premium (plugin).
Download GP Premium
To find your download links, go to your account.
Click or right-click the download button (control + click for Mac users), then save the file to your computer. The file should save as
- Using Firefox or Chrome, the option you want to click is “Save link as…”.
- In Safari, it’s “Download linked file as…”.
- In Internet Explorer, it’s “Save target as…”.
Note for Mac users who are using Safari: If your download appears as an ordinary folder instead of a zip file, go to “Safari Preferences > General” and uncheck “Open ‘safe’ files after downloading”. Then the download will remain a zip file and not be unpacked.
Add GP Premium to your website
From your Dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New.
Click Upload Plugin at the top, browse and select the gp-premium.zip file.
Activate your modules
Now navigate to “Appearance > GeneratePress” and activate the individual modules you wish to use on your site.
Please note that WooCommerce plugin itself needs to be installed and activated before GP’s WooCommerce module can be activated.
