If you already have the Gold cart plugin installed with WP E-Commerce this shows you have to do an update.
Update available notice in plugin area
Locate Gold Cart API key
First you need to know the API key before you can download the update. To get the API key go to Dashboard -> Store Upgrades
Then you will be able to see the API key. You can use the API key for the next step.
Go to to Premium Upgrades link to enter API Key and download the update
This is the link to get update from http://getshopped.org/extend/premium-upgrades-files/

Dashboard -> StoreUpgrades


















No matter what I do I cannot get the red “x” under dashboard store upgrade to go away after entering my user name and API. Gold Cart says activated under plugins but at dashboard store upgrade Gold Cart continues to say “The gold cart is currently deactivated.”
Just wanted to say thanks for this post. It’s hard to believe, but nowhere in GetShopped’s documentation does it have a clear, easy to follow upgrade guide like this one. Thanks again, you’ve saved the day
Hi Jacob,
I know that’s why I thought I better write this post as it drove me nuts too.
All the best.
