How to install your premium Gravity PDF extension

Installing a Premium Extension

You've purchased a premium extension/plugin through our online store. The next step is to install it on your website.

Before you begin please ensure you have the Gravity Forms and Gravity PDF plugins both active on your WordPress website. Done? Good! Now let's get you up and running with your new premium plugin.

Once you've completed your purchase you'll receive an email containing a link to your plugin zip file – the email also contains your product key which will give you access to support and one-click updates: keep it safe!

Install Steps

If your browser auto-extracts zip files when downloaded you'll need to temporarily disable this functionality to prevent issues during installation. See how to disable this in Safari.

  1. Open the Shop Receipt email you received and locate the Your Purchases section. Click the link to download the plugin zip package. Your purchase receipt contains the downloads to your premium plugin
  2. In your WordPress admin area, navigate to the Plugins -> Add New page then select the Upload Plugin button (located to the right of the Add Plugins title)
  3. Click the Browse button and select the zip file downloaded in step one. Uploading plugin zip file manually

One Click Updates

As long as you've registered your license key (as outlined in the Install Steps) and it's still valid (all keys are valid for 12 months after purchase), your extension will periodically check GravityPDF.com for a new version. If there is a new version, it'll be shown on the Dashboard Updates Screen or the Plugins page and you can one-click update the software.
