Installing Recipe Card Blocks

This guide explains how to install Recipe Card Blocks on your website, whether youโ€™re using the free version or the PRO version. Both versions can be installed directly from your WordPress dashboard, and you can upgrade from Free to PRO at any time.

Use this option if youโ€™ve purchased Recipe Card Blocks PRO.

1. Log in to your Recipe Card Blocks account.

2. Download the Recipe Card Blocks PRO plugin ZIP file.

3. Log in to your website’s WordPress dashboard (wp-admin)

4. Go to Plugins โ†’ Add New.

5. Click Upload Plugin.

6. Select the downloaded ZIP file and click Install Now.

7. After installation, click Activate Plugin.

Once activated, Recipe Card Blocks PRO will appear in the WordPress admin menu as Recipe Cards.

Notes

  • Installing the PRO version will automatically deactivate the free version if itโ€™s already installed.
  • If your browser (e.g. Safari) automatically extracts ZIP files, make sure the plugin is uploaded as a ZIP, not as a folder. Right click on the download button and select โ€œDownload Linked Fileโ€. This will allow you to download as a zip file.ย View How
