Installing Add-Ons & Themes

There are two easy ways to add items you pickup in our marketplace to your website.

Auto-Install

If your webserver is properly configured, you should be able to automatically install add-ons directly from your dashboard. Click Dashboard in the upper right of your concrete5 toolbar, then goto Add Functionality. You should see a page like this:

In the window on the right titled New you see a "Sign in or create an account" link. Click that and use the account you made on this site to save your add-ons & themes. At this point you are connecting your own website to concrete5.org. The user account and password you used to login to your own website has nothing to do with the user account and password you made here to shop in the marketplace. Mildly confusing, but that's what it is.

Once you've logged in, the list of add-ons in the New window should update to reflect everything you've purchased or saved for later here in the marketplace.

First click "Download", and then you'll see the listing show up in the New tab again with an "Install" button. Click Install and you should now see it on the left, in your currently installed add-on list. You're done!

By Hand

If your webserver doesn't have CURL installed, you may not be able to do this automatic install. In that case download the file you get here to your local computer. UnZIP the file and upload the whole directory it makes to the /packages folder in your concrete5 setup on your webserver. Once you've done that, it should show up in the New window above.
