How do I install and activate my addon?

Hi there,

You're trying to install the free theme as a plugin.

You'll want to download your add-ons in .zip form, and then upload them to the Plugins area.

Let me know if that makes sense :)

I didnt see the download of the gp premium in my account...lol

Thank you

You're welcome :)

unscrible this thread :)

You can unsubscribe to this thread at the top under the page navigation for it, and next to the "Favorite" link - you should see an "Unsubscribe" link.

Die Plugininstallation ist fehlgeschlagen.

Hi there,

You’ll want to download gp_premium.zip in .zip form (emailed to you, and in your account), and then upload it to the Plugins area.

Hi Tom,

thanks a lot - that makes sense and it works ;)

Karsten

Awesome :)

Hi Tom, I already installed and activate the add on. However, the menu didn't show up in the navigation bar. It only appear sample page. How can I add the menu such as Blog, Contact and so on. Thanks.

You'll have to set your menu - this may help: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

I can't figure out this step:
"GP Premium
If you’re using GP Premium, you need to Enable the addons you wish to use (to avoid loading unnecessary addons)."
Where do I go to do this? My plugins are uploaded, but when I go to activate them, I see "Looks like you don't have any Add-ons! Take a look at what's available here."

Hi Julie,

Is GP Premium activated as a plugin? If so, you shouldn't see that message.

If you're sure it's activated and you're not seeing the area to enable and disable them, you can send me a temporary admin login to support@generatepress.com and I'll investigate further.

Thanks!

Hi Yancey,

generatepress.1.2.7.zip is the free theme - it can't be uploaded as a plugin.

To install your add-on, you'll first have to save the file from your account page to your computer.

Then upload it to the Plugins area.
