# Search and download

How to find a catalog product and download it from the website or the dashboard.

The GPLClub catalog brings together WordPress plugins, themes, and template kits. Products are searched for and downloaded from the website or the member dashboard, and each download uses one credit from your [daily downloads](/en/membership-and-account/daily-downloads.md).

## Search on the website

The website search bar searches by name and author, and tolerates typos. After two letters, it shows up to eight suggestions. The drop-down on the left limits the search to **Plugins**, **Themes**, or **Templates**.

To see all results, press Enter or select **See all N results**. This opens the [catalog](https://gplclub.com/en/shop/), which you can filter by:

* **Type:** Plugins, Themes, or Template Kits.
* **Topics:** the industry or use of the product.
* **Author.**

Results are sorted by **Newest**, **Most popular**, **A-Z**, or **Z-A**. With a search term, they are sorted by relevance.

## Search on the dashboard

On the member dashboard, the **Catalog** page searches by name and does not tolerate typos. The tabs filter by **Plugins**, **Themes**, or **Template Kits**.

## Download a product

To download a product:

1. On the website, open the product page. On the dashboard, select the product.
2. Select **Download**.

The product page shows the current version, the date of the last update, and your remaining credits. Every file is scanned with an antivirus before it is published.

To install the file, refer to [Install in WordPress](/en/catalog-and-downloads/install-in-wordpress.md). To update products without downloading files, refer to [GPLClub Updater](/en/gplclub-updater/what-is-gplclub-updater.md).

## Previous versions

On the website, the **Versions** tab of the product page shows the ten most recent versions, with their date and changelog, and a **Download** button for each one. On the dashboard, they are under **Older versions**, inside the product details.

Downloading a previous version uses one credit, the same as the current one. Some products only have the current version.

## Products that need another one

Some products need another one to work; for example, Elementor Pro needs its activator. In these cases, the download box on the website shows the **Also download** button, with the name of the additional product and the reason.

The additional product uses one credit. The dashboard does not show this button: the additional product is searched for and downloaded like any other.

## Without a membership

Without an active membership, the product page shows the option to buy the product separately. Refer to [Individual purchases and bundles](/en/catalog-and-downloads/individual-purchases-and-bundles.md).
