Getting started after your purchase

From download to live in a few minutes — a quick guide to installing your new self-hosted app.

Getting started after your purchase

Just bought one of our products? Here's how to get from download to up-and-running in a few minutes.

1. Find your download

After payment, your download link and licence key appear on your order page and are emailed to you. Keep that email — the link is your ongoing access. If you created an account, everything is under My account too.

2. Upload to your hosting

Unzip the download and upload the files to your hosting account (via cPanel File Manager or FTP) into the folder where you want the app to live.

3. Run the setup

Open the app in your browser and follow the first-run setup to create your admin account. That's it — you're live.
