How to upgrade from Free to Pro
Upgrading uses the exact same install process as a fresh Pro install, and nothing you've already built is lost.
In short
There's no separate upgrade process - you follow the same steps as installing Pro fresh. Nothing is removed when you switch: your existing filters stay exactly as they are, and Pro's locked features simply become available.
How to upgrade
-
Buy Category AJAX Filter Pro
Purchase Pro from the Category AJAX Filter Pro page on trustyplugins.com.
-
Download Pro and get your license
Once purchased, your order confirmation page shows both the download and your license code together - no need to log in separately the first time. See Downloading your copy for the full walkthrough.
-
Install and activate Pro
Install and activate Pro the same way as a fresh install - your free version is deactivated automatically as part of this step. See Installing CAF Pro for the click-by-click steps.
-
Enter your license key
Go to Category Filter → License, paste in your license key and email address - from the order confirmation page the first time, or from My Account whenever you need it again - then click Activate. Nothing you've already built gets reset or removed - everything that was previously locked simply becomes available on top of what you already have.
