Form Forge comes in two parts:
- Form Forge (Free core). Download it for free, no account needed, from the public download page at https://avakode.com/download/ (it will also be listed on the WordPress.org plugin directory). Install it via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, or by uploading the ZIP. The Free core updates automatically through Avakode’s secure update channel.
- Form Forge Pro (add-on). After buying a license at https://avakode.com, sign in and open Dashboard → Downloads to download the Pro add-on ZIP. Upload it via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, activate it, then connect your license. The Pro add-on requires the Free core to be installed and active. It updates automatically through Avakode once your license is connected.
Your Free features keep working even if a Pro license lapses — only the Pro add-on’s premium features pause.
