On this page
Free add-ons download straight from their product page, no account needed. Premium add-ons download from My Licenses once you've bought them. Both places also have older versions, for forums that still run an older XenForo.
Free add-ons
- Open the add-on's page from Add-ons.
- Click the download button. The zip file for the current version downloads straight away.
The product page's Compatibility section shows which XenForo version the current release needs. If your forum is older, look in the Version History tab for a release that suits it.
Premium add-ons
- Sign in and open My Licenses.
- Open the license for the add-on.
- Click Download for the latest version you're entitled to, or open the Downloads tab to see every version.
Your license and download are ready as soon as your payment is confirmed. If a purchase doesn't show in My Licenses, check you're signed in with the account you used to buy it, then open a ticket with your order number.
Older versions
New releases sometimes need a newer XenForo. Some add-ons moved to XenForo 2.3 only, for example Story, Thumbnail and Thread Icon, and their last XenForo 2.2 builds stay available for forums that haven't upgraded yet.
- Premium: the license's Downloads tab lists each version with the XenForo version it needs. Use the latest one unless your forum runs an older XenForo.
- Free: the product page's Version History tab lists every release with its notes.
Not sure which XenForo you have? Find your XenForo, PHP and MySQL versions. For what "Patch Level" and "Needs XenForo 2.3" mean, see reading version numbers.
When your update period has ended
Everything released before your license's update period ended stays downloadable, as often as you like. Newer versions show as needing renewal. Renew from the same page if you want them. How updates and renewals work.
Hear about new versions
Each product page has an option to get an email when a new version is out, so you don't need to keep checking. All releases across every add-on are also listed on the changelog, each with its release notes.
Tip: Read the release notes before updating. They say what changed and whether anything needs doing afterwards, such as rebuilding caches.
After downloading
New to the add-on? Follow How to install a XenForo add-on. Updating one you already have? The steps are almost the same: How to upgrade an add-on.
Still stuck? Open a support ticket with the add-on name and your order number if a download fails or a version you need isn't listed.
