Steps
- Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features. The page is called Features.

Common problems
I cannot find Shorts in my admin. Why: The feature is off or not yet installed. Fix: Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features. If it shows Buy, it is not in your plan yet. If it shows Being set up, wait a few minutes. Paid features you don't own are listed in the menu under Add more features.
