Is Stackless Lite really free?
Yes. The checkout costs nothing, and there is no trial or time limit. Every Lite module works fully. The paid modules in the dashboard are descriptions only.
Do I need a license key for updates?
No. Lite updates from gauravtiwari.org without one. The free checkout gives you a lifetime license anyway, so the download stays in your account.
What does the update check send?
It sends no license key and none of your store or customer data. It is the standard request WordPress makes, which includes your WordPress version and site address. Lite does no tracking.
What happens when I upgrade to Stackless?
Activate Stackless for WooCommerce and Lite goes idle. Both plugins use the same settings, tables and hooks, so your settings and your customers' wishlists, saved carts and back-in-stock requests carry over. You can then remove Lite.
Can I go back to Lite later?
Yes. Deactivate Stackless and activate Lite. The settings and records of the paid modules stay in the database for the day you upgrade again.
Does deleting Lite remove my data?
No. Deleting the plugin keeps your settings and records. To remove them as well, define STACKLESS_REMOVE_ALL_DATA as true in wp-config.php before you delete it.
Does it work with the Cart and Checkout blocks?
Yes, and with the classic cart and checkout. Lite supports HPOS and needs WooCommerce 9.9 or later.
Can I install it from GitHub?
Yes, from the latest release. GitHub's green Download ZIP button names the folder after the branch, and updates need the folder named stackless-lite.
