How do I Enable a CiviCRM Extension

CiviCRM extensions add extra functionality to your PowerBase database. Most extensions are disabled by default. If you would like to get the extra functionality you have to enable them.

The admin user of your site has the permissions necessary to enable extensions, however, we ask that you please email support to let us know if you are enabling a new extension so we can help you use it most effectively.

Go to the CiviCRM Extensions page

Click the Administer -> Systems Settings -> Extensions

Click Extensions menu

[Note: if you don't see the Extensions menu here, try in the "Customize Data and Screens" menu or try Administer -> Administration Console -> click on Manage Extensions in the Systems Settings area.]

Find the Extension you want to enable

When you find your extension in the list, click the "Install" link to the right of the extension name. In this screen shot I am enabling the Last Assessment extension.

Click to install

Confirm the installation
