Installing PowerPress from the WordPress plugin repository (The normal way)
** Scroll down for how to side-load without the repository**
You can install or update PowerPress from the plugins menu in WordPress
To install it from the repository, click Add New in the plugins menu and search for “PowerPress” in the search bar, and install and activate it there.
Side Loading PowerPress (The alternate way)
If, for whatever reason, you can’t use the repository on WordPress, you can also download the latest PowerPress version at https://wordpress.org/plugins/powerpress/. The download will be a zip file.
Install PowerPress from the zip file, go to Plugins > add new > and click on “upload plugin.” Select the PowerPress.zip file and click Install. Once it’s installed, click activate.
*Note: if you are just applying an update by side-loading the zip, you have to click “Deactivate” and then “delete” in the plugins menu for Blubrry PowerPress.
* Don’t worry; your settings are saved in the database of your WordPress site.
