EDIT: UPDATED VIDEO DOWN BELOW - it’s working
EDIT 2: Code now available on Github here: https://github.com/dtbaker/envato-wp-theme-setup-wizard
Original post:
I’ve (finally) figured out how to make plugin installation and activation easy for buyers. SINGLE CLICK! yay!
Check out this installation wizard (a work in progress) but it handles all default plugin install/update/activation with a single click.
Quite a bit better than the back and forward needed when using the standard TGM update class.

Amazing! How about sharing the repo already? Perhaps we can help testing, with Issues and even Pull Requests?
Would love to give a look!

oAuth login with automatic theme updates is complete.
Some polishing off and then I’ll be able to push the code up. It’s heavily integrated into this particular theme so I’m trying to rip it out a bit so the code works as more of a plugin. A bit hard when it’s pulling in settings and stuff from the theme but I’ll see how it goes.

At least to understand how it works and how to implement this …
Love to see this in my plugin. I think a wizard is the best way to introduce users with a feature rich theme/plugin.
This is where you can address most common questions and steps which cannot be included in automated progress. A plugin should work out of the box but if sometimes this isn’t possible.

Here’s the wizard working on a fresh WordPress 4.4 install:
I’m so excited about this!!
Those with a keen eye will see that it’s using the new Envato Market plugin to handle theme updates. No purchase codes needed any more
Ok it’s midnight here so I’ll get some rest and tidy the code up for sharing tomorrow.

Nice work! Where does the “leave a 5-Star rating” link lead to?

This is still not optimal. They should introduce a dedicate landing page like

I wish it could install included plugins (visual composer, theme’s plugins, rev slider…)
