Before you start
- Use your WordPress admin account. You need permission to install and activate plugins on the destination website.
- Keep Contact Form 7 active. Check it under Plugins > Installed Plugins before adding your CF7 Toolbox addon.
- Have your purchase details ready. Use the purchase email or My Account to access your download and license.
Check the requirements supplied with your addon download against your website's WordPress and PHP versions.
Step 01 / Download
Get the ZIP for your addon
Open the download link in your purchase email, or sign in to My Account using the email address associated with your order. Select the purchased addon and save its plugin ZIP to your computer.
CF7 Layout Builder
Download the Layout Builder plugin package from your purchase.
CF7 Entries & Export
Download the Entries & Export plugin package from your purchase.
Keep each installable plugin file in ZIP format. If your browser extracts downloads automatically, retain or download the original ZIP.
Step 02 / Install
Upload the addon to WordPress
- In your website's WordPress dashboard, open the upload location above.
- Select Choose File and choose the addon ZIP you downloaded.
- Select Install Now and wait for WordPress to finish installing the package.
Some WordPress versions label the menu item Add New. Upload the addon under Plugins.
Step 03 / Enable
Activate the installed plugin
Select Activate Plugin on the installation result screen. If you have already left that screen, open Plugins > Installed Plugins, find the addon, and select Activate.
WordPress plugin activation enables the addon on your website. Continue to its license step to confirm your purchase is activated for this installation.
Step 04 / License
Activate your license for this website
Follow the addon's license prompt after activation. If no prompt appears, open the addon's account or license area in WordPress and check its current status.
- Copy the license key supplied with your purchase email or available in My Account.
- Enter the key in the addon's license field and select Activate License, or the activation control shown in your version.
- Wait for confirmation that the license is active for this website.
For an activation error, a site limit, or help moving a license, contact addon support.

Check these results before continuing to your addon's operating instructions.
- Contact Form 7 remains active.
