Dear BoldGrid,
I’m not the most knowledgeable about building websites. I have
been told WordPress with BoldGrid is one way for neophytes to go.I am hosted on internet.bs
They have a WordPress I can download to site off of softaculus (sp?) which
is on the Cpanel.Am I able to buy a BoldGrid plug in from you, and are you able to help
facilitate the plug in.Currently I have not downloaded word press, as I am waiting to see if
I can get a BoldGrid plug in.If this is not possible, is there a site for folks like me to build a
site with NO eCommerce — just poetry, science a few different divisions
of pages.Appreciate your help.
Thank you,
stephen wick
Hi Stephen-
Thanks for reaching out, and thanks for your interest in the BoldGrid WordPress website builder.
To get started, go ahead and install WordPress via Softaculous, as you mentioned.
Once you log in for the first time, navigate to the Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin screen, and choose the BoldGrid Inspirations Zip File that you can download directly from this link.
After you’ve installed it, click Activate and you’ll be prompted to input your key. You can use a free key to get started, or if you’ve already purchased BoldGrid’s premium suite, enter the key you received when you purchased.
After you input your key, simply follow along the Website Builder’s steps and you’ll be on your way!
Jesse,
Have Word Press downloaded.
Am not seeing exact same names, and unsure how to
move the zip file off my computer to domain/cpanel etc.IS Post and Page Builder on my cpanel plug in for word press what I want…
would I buy from bold grid here?
the above is $30 a yearOn my cpanel if I proceed, it is $60 a year, making me wonder if the same
or different boldgrid plug insthere is a premium connect key for $5 a month and a crio+premium for 8.25
a monthIs the $30 connect the same as the $60 connect, or am I looking at the
wrong item.Appreciate the knowledgeable help, as I need it 🙂

Hi Stephen, we are more than happy to help!
Now that you have WordPress installed, then next step is to get the Inspirations configured on your website. Log into the WordPress administrator dashboard for your new installation and navigate to Plugins > Add New using the menu items on the left side of that dashboard. At the top of the Add Plugins page you should see a button labelled Upload Plugin, click that button and use the Choose File tool to locate the Inspirations Zip file you previously downloaded and install it on your website.
The Post and Page Builder plugin is our visual editing tool that makes it easy to create new content for Posts and Pages on your website. The $30 subscription is for the Premium plugin extension that includes the ability to add things like page sliders as well as access to Premium exclusive blocks. The Post and Page Builder, like all of our other plugins, is available in as a free version and there is no need to make an additional purchase to start using it on your website.
The $60 subscription is for a Premium Connect key, which includes a premium license for both the Post and Page Builder and our backup plugin Total Upkeep. Total Upkeep Premium unlocks the ability to use remote locations like Google Drive or Amazon S3 to store your backups and keep them safe in case there are ever any failures on your website’s server.
The Crio Premium bundle not only provides you with a Premium Connect key but also a license for Crio Pro, our most powerful WordPress theme. Crio also has a free version available like our plugins and I recommend trying out the free versions on your first to see if you enjoy using them to customize your website.
I hope that this answers some of your questions Stephen and please let us know if there is anything else that we can do to help!
