Installing Stockline Pro

Stockline Pro is an add-on: it adds per-product and per-variation messages to Stockline, which stays installed and keeps doing everything else. You need both.

Before you start

• WooCommerce and Stockline 1.0.0 or later, installed and active. If you don't have Stockline yet, install it from Plugins → Add New Plugin (search for "Stockline"); see Installation.
• The stockline-pro.zip file and the license key from your purchase email. Both are in the email Lemon Squeezy sent after you bought Stockline Pro.

Install and activate

1. Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin and click Upload Plugin at the top.
2. Choose stockline-pro.zip and click Install Now.
3. Click Activate Plugin.

WordPress won't activate Stockline Pro while Stockline or WooCommerce is inactive; it lists what's missing instead. Activate those first.

Enter your license key

Back on the Plugins screen, there's a box under Stockline Pro:

1. Paste the license key from your purchase email.
2. Click Activate.

The box turns green and shows the end of your key and, for a yearly license, the date your updates run until. The key activates Stockline Pro on this site only; see Licenses and updates for moving it to another site.

Check it works

Edit any product and open its Inventory tab. Below the stock settings there's a message field for each stock state (Out of stock, Backorder, In stock and Low stock), each with an eye button. See Per-product and per-variation messages.

While Stockline Pro isn't active

Per-product messages stay saved on your products. Stockline shows the store-wide messages instead, and as soon as Stockline Pro is active again, every product's own messages, icons and colours are back, with nothing to re-enter.
