EnglishHow to Download Gantry
Updated
Gantry is available as a direct download from gantry.org. The current version listed on the site is Gantry 5.6.4, marked as updated about four weeks ago, with a changelog available alongside it. If you need the framework itself rather than a specific CMS theme built on it, that download link on the homepage is the entry point.
What you get from the download
Gantry is described on its own site as a "Next Generation Theme Framework" for developing CMS themes quickly and efficiently, while keeping things flexible and easy to use for end users. The download is the framework package — the base you build or install themes on top of — not a finished site template.
Steps to download
- Go to gantry.org.
- Locate the download section on the homepage (the heading area shows the framework name and version).
- Confirm the version shown — currently 5.6.4 — and check the "updated" note to see how recent the release is.
- Select the download link to get the package.
- Optionally open the Changelog link next to the version to review what changed before installing.
Expected result: you have the current Gantry framework package and know which version you're working with.
Checking you have the right version
| What to look at | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Version number (e.g. 5.6.4) | Which release you're downloading |
| "Updated X weeks ago" | How fresh that release is |
| Changelog | What changed between versions |
If you're matching Gantry to an existing theme or an older project, compare the version you download against what that theme expects before installing.
Common snags
- Downloading a theme instead of the framework. Gantry is the framework; individual themes are separate packages. If you wanted a ready-made look, you need the theme, not just Gantry.
- Skipping the changelog. If you're upgrading an existing setup, the changelog is the fastest way to spot changes that might affect your theme.
- Assuming a price or account requirement. The site shows a "subscribe" signal, but the download page itself doesn't state pricing or login terms here — check the page directly if that matters to you.
Who this download is for
The framework targets two groups: developers who want to build CMS themes efficiently, and end users who want flexibility and ease of use once a theme is in place. If you're in either group and need the base framework, the homepage download is where to start.
