Manually Installing BoldGrid on WP Engine<\/h2>\n
\n
Download the Inspirations plugin<\/a>, taking note of where you store it on your computer. By default, this should go to the Downloads folder.\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Login to your WordPress<\/strong> installation. $\"WordPress$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Navigate to Plugins, and at the top click Add New. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Click Upload Plugin. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Select Browse to locate the file you downloaded earlier on your computer. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Select the BoldGrid Inspirations<\/strong> plugin from your downloads directory by browsing your downloads folder, and click on Open. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Click Install Now. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Once the plugin is done downloading and installing, you can then activate it by clicking the link that displays here. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Now you can enter your 32 digit BoldGrid Connect Key. If you do not have one, you can obtain one by clicking on the link “Don’t have a Connect Key yet or lost your Key?” $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Alternatively, you can also create an account on BoldGrid Central<\/b><\/a> to obtain and manage your keys. $\"\"$ <\/a>\n
<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Once you have input the Connect Key, you should see a “Welcome to BoldGrid” message in the Dashboard, and that means you have successfully installed BoldGrid<\/strong> on your WP Engine WordPress site!
