If you are trying to download Fusion Builder for your WordPress website, the first thing to know is that it is not available as a standalone plugin in the WordPress plugin directory. Fusion Builder comes bundled with the Avada theme, so you need access to Avada before you can install it.

Here is how the process works.

Step 1: Purchase and Download Avada

Fusion Builder is included with the Avada theme, which is sold through ThemeForest. After purchasing Avada, log into your ThemeForest account and go to your Downloads section. Download the full Avada package file to your computer. This file contains the theme and the required plugins, including Fusion Builder.

Step 2: Upload and Activate Avada

Log into your WordPress dashboard and go to Appearance > Themes > Add New. Click Upload Theme and select the Avada zip file you downloaded. Install and activate the theme.

Once Avada is activated, WordPress will prompt you to install required plugins.

Step 3: Install Fusion Builder

After activating the theme, you will see a notification asking you to install required or recommended plugins. Click Begin Installing Plugins, select Fusion Builder (and Avada Core if prompted), then install and activate them.

That is it. Fusion Builder will now be available inside your page editor.

To confirm, go to Pages > Add New. You should see the option to use Fusion Builder or the Live Builder. If you see that button, the installation was successful.

Important Notes

Fusion Builder only works with the Avada theme. If you are using a different theme, it will not function properly. Also, in newer versions of Avada, Fusion Builder is referred to as Avada Builder, but the setup process is the same.

If you do not see the builder option after installation, double check that:

  • The Avada theme is active

  • Fusion Builder is activated under Plugins

  • Your theme license is registered

This process is fairly simple once you understand that Fusion Builder is tied directly to Avada. It is not something you download independently from WordPress.
