Plugin Activation Errors

Fix plugins that won't activate or show a license error.
This usually traces back to one of four things: the wrong plugin file (a free WordPress.org version instead of the one bundled with your kit), a license/purchase code that hasn't been entered yet, a conflict with another plugin already on the site, or a missing dependency that only looks like an activation problem.
Confirm you're using the plugin files included in your ThemeForest download, not a version from WordPress.org — several of these plugins (Jeg Elementor Kit, ElementsKit Lite, Gum Elementor Kit) have similarly-named free listings on the repository that lack the features the kit depends on.
Re-enter your license/purchase code if the plugin asks for activation — this is normally found in your ThemeForest order details or the plugin's own settings page.
Deactivate conflicting plugins one by one to isolate the source of the error — if the error disappears after deactivating a specific plugin, you've found the conflict, and can look into compatibility or reach out to support with that specific detail.
If the message you're seeing specifically mentions a missing dependency (for example, a form widget asking for MetForm) rather than a licensing or activation error, that plugin was probably just inactive at the moment you imported — activate it, then re-import that specific template rather than troubleshooting the plugin itself.
