Frequently asked questions

Yes, 100%. Every plugin we build is free to download, use, and modify. There are no "pro" versions, no premium tiers, and no features locked behind a paywall. This is a permanent commitment, not a temporary marketing strategy.

All WordPress plugins are licensed under the GPL (GNU General Public License), which is the same license WordPress itself uses. Our website, tools, and non-plugin code use the MIT license. Both licenses allow you to freely use, modify, and distribute the software.

Absolutely. You can use our plugins on any number of sites — personal, client, commercial, or otherwise. There are no usage restrictions.

Download the ZIP file from our plugin page or GitHub, then go to your WordPress dashboard > Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin. Some of our plugins are also available directly from WordPress.org.

All our code is open source and publicly auditable on GitHub. We follow WordPress coding standards and security best practices. If you find a security issue, please report it responsibly through our security.txt contact.
