Hello Imagesbyjjlad,

Sorry for the problem with the BoldGrid installation.  BoldGrid is like any WordPress plugin and shouldn't take that long to load.  If it's taking that long, then you may want to restart.  Remove it from your current installation if it's showing in the plugins section, then start over.  You can always download the plugin directly from their site. Start with the Inspirations Plugin, then the Post and Page Builder Plugin. The rest should be loaded after as needed. I would recommend the Backup plugin because much of its functionality is free and it's a very capable backup option for your WordPress site. If you download the file, then your plugin installation steps will use the Zip file.  The steps are: 

  1. Download the zip file from the Boldgrid.com website.
  2. Go to your WordPress Administrator Dashboard > Plugins > Add new
  3. Select upload plugin.  You will then select the zip file that you downloaded previously.
  4. Proceed with the installation, then activate the plugin.

If you load it this way, then there less possibility of interruption due to a break in connection to the server site.  Apologies again for the confusion with the plugin not loading properly.  If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.


Kindest regards,

Arnel C.
