Install
IgnitionDeck has two plugin dependencies: IgnitionDeck Crowdfunding and IgnitionDeck Commerce. Both plugins do need to be installed and activated*. Click the Install/Activate button. Installation and activation times will vary depending on your internet connection and/or server speeds. Once the dependencies have been installed and activated, the status of the plugins will be updated and a continue button will appear to proceed to the next step.
* If you are using WooCommerce, the IgnitionDeck Commerce plugin must still be installed and activated on your site.
Upgrade
The Upgrade step is where the IgnitionDeck license can be entered to activate the functionality of IgnitionDeck Echelon or IgnitionDeck Enterprise. Enter your license key into the field and click the Active button. Upon validation of the license, a confirmation notice will be display as well as the expiry date of the current license.
