WordPress is open-source software licensed under the GPL (General Public License). That license encourages developers of themes and plugins—who build on top of WordPress—to also use the GPL. Most major developers do, including WooThemes, WPML, Gravity Forms, and others.

The GPL gives anyone the freedom to use, modify, and redistribute the software. That means we’re legally allowed to redistribute these plugins and themes—at a much lower cost—because we’re not charging for the software itself, but for the service of distribution and ongoing manual updates.

We don’t offer support or automatic updates like the original developers. Instead, we provide updated versions when available, and you can install them manually. If you need direct support or automated updates, we highly recommend purchasing from the original author.

GPLDOWNLOADSPRO fully respects and operates within the terms of the GPL. You get access to premium plugins and themes, without the premium price tag.

All plugins and themes are sourced directly from the original developers or vendors. This ensures the highest standards of quality and security, so you can use them with confidence.

By purchasing through GPLDOWNLOADSPRO.COM, you agree to abide by our Refund Policy on our Terms & Conditions upon checkout and complete your purchase. It states the following exception scenario:

If purchased in the means of an accidental manner, you may contact us to request a refund after the following condition is met: No product(s) have been downloaded (a total of 0 (zero) times). At this point, we will revoke the download permissions and issue a refund. All refund requests are issued and processed within 5-7 business days.

Anytime you install a file, you’ll sometimes be prompted to input a license key. This allows you to access automatic updates from your WordPress dashboard. However, a license key is not required for the plugin to function. This prompt can be ignored. We sometimes add a small code to stop this from happening; we call it Nag removal.

You can also Disable Admin Notices individually using this plugin.

Upgrading WordPress Plugins Manually

1. First back-up your WordPress site if you haven’t already.
2. Download a ZIP file of the plugin you need to upgrade. You can usually find most plugins on the plugin repository along with a link to download the newest ZIP file.
3. Unzip the plugin onto your local machine. It will create a directory called ‘plugin-name’ with all the files under it.
4. Use an FTP program of your choice to delete the existing plugin directory from the wp-content/plugins/ directory on your site.
5. Replace the deleted directory by uploading the unzipped plugin to the wp-content/plugins/ directory leaving it in a directory that looks like (for example) wp-content/plugins/plugin-name
6. Sign in to your WordPress site. Go to the ‘Plugins’ menu and verify that the plugin you upgraded is the newest version.

Upgrading WordPress Themes Manually

Note, if you are running a customized theme you will lose any customizations if you simply overwrite your theme with a new one. In this case you will need to work with a developer to integrate your customizations into your new WordPress theme instead of just overwriting the old theme. If you have not customized your theme’s code and have merely customized it using the web admin interface that WordPress provides (without changing any of it’s files), then you can follow the procedure below:

1. First create a backup of your WordPress site.
2. Download a ZIP file of the theme you plan to upgrade.
3. Unzip the theme files onto your local machine.
4. Use an FTP program of your choice to delete your existing theme directory from the wp-content/themes/ directory.
5. Replace the deleted directory by uploading the unzipped theme into your wp-content/themes/ directory. You should now have a structure that looks something like wp-content/themes/theme-name/
6. Sign into your WordPress site. Go to Appearance > Themes and verify you are running the newest version of your theme.

OR

WordPress has a built-in feature to install themes and plugins by supplying a zip file. Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade a theme or plugin using the same process. Instead, WordPress will say “destination already exists” when trying to upgrade using a zip file and will fail to upgrade the theme or plugin.

A great plugin to help with this process is Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades

Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades fixes this limitation in WordPress by automatically upgrading the theme or plugin if it already exists. While upgrading, a backup copy of the old theme or plugin is first created. This allows you to install the old version in case of problems with the new version.
