BulletProof Security Pro Direct Upgrade, Zip Installation, Zip Backup & Download<\/span><\/h2>\n

Upgrading from a free version of BulletProof Security to BulletProof Security Pro:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Or<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If this is a new installation of BPS Pro and you do not have a previous version of BPS Pro installed:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

WordPress Upload Zip installation<\/strong><\/span> – Use the WordPress Upload Zip installer to install first time installations of BPS Pro. \u00a0IMPORTANT!!!<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span> Before using the WordPress Upload Zip installer – deactivate and delete the BPS free version (choose “Yes, delete these files”). \u00a0This does not remove your website security and only removes the BPS free plugin files. \u00a0Click on Plugins, Click Add New, Click Upload, Click Choose File (or browse), navigate to the folder where the bulletproof-security.zip file is on your computer and click on it, Click Open and Click Install Now.<\/p>\n

Manual FTP upload method<\/strong><\/span> – FTP to your website an rename the existing \/plugins\/bulletproof-security folder to something like \/old-bulletproof-security. \u00a0Unzip the bulletproof-security.zip file and upload the entire unzipped bulletproof-security folder to your plugins folder.<\/p>\n

WordPress Upload Zip (PCLZIP) Installer Problem – a number is appended to the bulletproof-security folder name<\/strong><\/span>
If you use the WordPress Upload Zip installer and do not rename or delete the free BPS plugin version first before installing BPS Pro, a number (2, 3, 4, etc) will be appended to the bulletproof-security folder name during Zip installation. \u00a0This problem can also occur even if you have already delete the BPS free plugin version from your website. \u00a0Example Plugin Folder names that you may see:\u00a0 bulletproof-security1,\u00a0bulletproof-security2 or bulletproof-security3, etc. \u00a0If this problem does occur then FTP or use your Web Host Control Panel and rename the bulletproof-security1,\u00a0bulletproof-security2, bulletproof-security3, etc\u00a0 folder name to just bulletproof-security (removing any numbers that have been appended to the bulletproof-security folder name) and then go to the WordPress Plugins page and refresh \/ reload your browser.\u00a0 This will automatically activate BulletProof Security Pro. \u00a0Or you may need to click the Activate link under BulletProof Security Pro on your WordPress Plugins page.<\/p>\n

*NEW* One Click Direct Upgrade Installation in BPS Pro 5.1.7<\/span><\/h1>\n

One Click Upgrade Installation:<\/span><\/strong> Zip download and zip upload installations will no longer be necessary after installing the BPS Pro 5.1.7 upgrade.

The upgrade notification is also displayed in exactly the same way as all of your other WordPress plugins. The only difference will be that BPS Pro upgrade will be installed from the AITpro API Server instead of the WordPress Downloads Server.<\/p>\n

Upgrading BPS Pro Using the BPS built-in Zip Upload Installer (no longer necessary as of BPS Pro 5.1.7)<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

BPS Pro has its own built-in Zip Uploader and Installer. \u00a0If you are upgrading from a previous version of BulletProof Security Pro to a new version of BulletProof Security Pro then use the BPS Pro Zip Uploader and Zip Installer. \u00a0Note: \u00a0The name of the zip file MUST be bulletproof-security.zip. \u00a0If you have renamed the zip file to something else the zip upgrade will fail. \u00a0Rename the zip file back to bulletproof-security.zip:<\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
