Elevated Product Search installs like any standard WordPress plugin. Download the ZIP from the Customer Portal, upload it through your WordPress admin, then activate your license key to enable automatic updates.
Log in to the Customer Portal at elevatedextensions.com/portal/ using the credentials associated with your purchase.
Click View Downloads to navigate to the Downloads page.

You can also navigate directly to the Downloads section from the portal’s top menu.
Download the latest .zip file and save it to your computer.
Go to Plugins › Add New in your WordPress admin.
Click the Upload Plugin at the top of the page.

Click Choose File and select the ZIP you downloaded from the Customer Portal. You can also drag and drop the file directly onto the upload area.
Click Install Now.
Once the installation finishes, click Activate Plugin.

After activation, a new Product Search menu appears under Elevated in your WordPress admin sidebar.
Automatic updates are only available after you activate your license. Without a license, the plugin works normally, but you will not receive update notifications when new versions are released.
Go to Elevated › Product Search › License.

Copy your license key from the purchase confirmation email or from the Customer Portal under your license details.
Paste the key into the field and click Activate.
A confirmation message appears when the license is active.

Each license activates on a specific number of sites depending on your plan:
| Plan | Sites |
| Single Site | 1 |
| Up to 5 Sites | Up to 5 |
| Up to 100 Sites | Up to 100 |
| All Access Pass | Unlimited |
When you activate a license on a site, that activation is tied to that domain. If you need to move the plugin to a new domain, deactivate the license on the old site first, then activate it on the new one.
Development and staging sites do not count toward your activation limit. You can activate your license on an unlimited number of test environments at no cost.
To manage existing activations, log in to the Customer Portal and view your license details. From there, you can deactivate any site that is no longer in use, which frees up an activation slot.
When a new version is released, an update notification appears on the Plugins page. Click Update Now to apply it. Updates only appear on sites where the license is currently active.
“Installation failed” error
Make sure you uploaded the .zip file from the Customer Portal directly. Do not upload an extracted folder. If you accidentally extracted the file, re-download the original ZIP and try again.
License activation fails with “Invalid license key”
Check that you copied the entire key with no extra spaces before or after. If the issue persists, log in to the Customer Portal and verify the license is active and has remaining activations.
“No activations remaining” error
In the Customer Portal, deactivate a site you no longer use, then activate on the new site.
License is active, but no updates appear
Confirm you are on the correct domain. Each license activation is tied to the specific domain where it was activated.
