How to install the Paid Versions

Starting with version 3.7.2 we have changed the way individual Profile Builder add-ons are used by simplifying the process and re-packaging all premium Add-ons into 3 different premium versions: Basic, Pro, and Unlimited.

When you login into your Cozmoslabs account you will see two buttons:

1. Main Plugin
2. The button associated with the paid version – e.g. if you have the PRO version you will see “Pro Download”.
