After [Installing GravityView](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/getting-started-gravityview/installing-gravityview/), you'll need to activate your license. Here's how to do it in three simple steps.

You can also skip copying keys entirely by connecting your site to your GravityKit account, which activates licenses without pasting them. See [Managing Your Licenses](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/general-help/licensing/managing-your-licenses/). The steps below cover manual key activation.

## 1. Log in to your account and copy your license key

Go to the [GravityKit account page](https://www.gravitykit.com/account/) and log in with your account details. Then, on the Licenses page, find your license and click the copy button next to the license key number to copy the key to your clipboard.

## 2. Log in to your WordPress website and navigate to the GravityKit "Manage Your Kit" page

You can do this by hovering over "GravityKit" in the WordPress menu and clicking "Manage Your Kit".

Once inside the "Manage Your Kit" page, click "Enter a license key manually", paste your license key, and click the Activate License button.

On a WordPress multisite network, licenses can be activated network-wide or for a single site, and a license managed by the network administrator cannot be changed from an individual subsite. [See Multisite and GravityKit Licenses for details.](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/general-help/licensing/multisite-and-gravitykit-licenses/)

If you have any problems, check to see if your license key has expired. If it hasn't expired but you're still seeing errors, [contact our support](https://www.gravitykit.com/support/)
