WPRentals is sold in two places: on ThemeForest, and directly on wprentals.org – https://wprentals.org/pricing This article is for the second group. If you bought on ThemeForest, everything you need is in Get your license code instead.
What Is Different, and What Is Not
The theme is the same product either way. Same features, same demos, same support, same updates. What changes is the code you activate with and the road your updates travel down.
| Bought on ThemeForest | Bought on wprentals.org | |
|---|---|---|
| What you activate with | ThemeForest username + Purchase Code | License Key only |
| Where the theme zip comes from | Your ThemeForest Downloads page | Your care.wpestate.org account, under Licenses |
| How updates arrive | Through the Envato Market plugin | Built into the theme, in Dashboard > Updates |
| Envato Market plugin | Update through Envato Market | Not Required |
| Domains per license | One live domain, for both | |
Your License Key
A wprentals.org purchase gives you a License Key. You will find it in two places:
- In the purchase confirmation email sent to the address you bought with, next to the download link
- In your account at care.wpestate.org, under Licenses
Copy it exactly as shown, including the dashes, with no spaces before or after.
Activate the License on Your Website
Install the theme and activate the WPRentals – Theme Core Functionality plugin first. The License screen belongs to that plugin, so it does not exist until the plugin is active.
How to install the theme and the included plugins
Then go to WPRentals Site Settings > WPRentals License and choose Purchased on wprentals.org. The ThemeForest username field disappears and the remaining field is relabelled License Key:
Paste your key, tick the consent checkbox, and click Register License. You are looking for the message You have successfully registered.
Full step-by-step, including what to do when a license is already registered elsewhere: Get your license code. Register / activate / deactivate.
How Updates Reach You
You do not need the Envato Market plugin and you do not need to download anything. Once the license is registered, the theme checks for a new version by itself and hands it to WordPress.
- Go to Dashboard > Updates.
- When a newer version is out, WPRentals is listed under Themes.
- Tick it and click Update Themes.
Your content, theme options and child theme are untouched — it is the same operation WordPress performs for any theme.
The three included plugins — Core Functionality, Elementor Widgets and Gutenberg Blocks — are updated separately, the same way for every buyer.

Moving the License to Another Domain
A license covers one live domain. Before you delete a site, reset a site, or move to a new domain, release the license from the old one.
Go to WPRentals Site Settings > WPRentals License on the old site. A registered site shows the deactivation option instead of the registration form:
Click Deactivate License and wait for Your license has been successfully revoked. The key is then free to register on the new domain.
Support
Support is at care.wpestate.org, and it is the same support ThemeForest buyers get.
Once you are in, Licenses is the screen you will use most. It lists your license key and your download files: the full package and the theme-only zip.
