Bundled premium plugins

BuddyApp includes premium plugins at no extra cost: WPBakery Page Builder. You find them on the Plugins tab of the BuddyApp Panel (Appearance > BuddyApp Panel), marked Premium.

What you get

• The same plugin files the plugin author sells, fully working with BuddyApp.
• Installs and updates from our update server, once you register BuddyApp. Until then, premium plugins show Requires registration.

What you do not get

• A separate license key for the plugin. The plugin may show messages asking you to activate or buy a license. You can ignore them; the plugin works without activation.
• Premium extras that the plugin author gives only to direct buyers, for example their template library, add-ons or their own support desk.

If you need those extras, buy a license from the plugin author and activate it. This is optional.

Envato explains the rules in Bundled plugins.

Install a premium plugin

A demo import installs the plugins that demo needs. To add one yourself:

1. Go to Appearance > BuddyApp Panel and open the Plugins tab.
2. Find the plugin and click Install, then Activate.

Update the premium plugins

Do not use the plugin’s own update notice: without a plugin license it cannot download the update. Instead:

1. Update BuddyApp to the latest version. Each version knows the plugin versions it works with.
2. Go to Appearance > BuddyApp Panel and open the Plugins tab.
3. Plugins with a newer version show Update available. Click Update on each one.

To update a plugin by hand, take its zip from the Plugins folder of the latest ThemeForest package, delete the old plugin in Plugins and upload the new zip.
