Installing Stockpool Pro

Stockpool Pro is an add-on: it adds attribute rules, kits, bundle support and CSV import to Stockpool, which stays installed and keeps doing everything else. You need both.

Before you start

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

Install and activate

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

WordPress won't activate Stockpool Pro while Stockpool 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 Stockpool 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. See Licenses and updates for moving it to another site.

Check it works

Open any pool on Products → Shared stock. Below Settings there are two new boxes, Made from other pools and Which products use it; see Attribute rules and Kits. The pool list also has an Import CSV button.

While Stockpool Pro isn't active

Rules and kits stay saved on your pools. Stockpool keeps them but doesn't act on them, and as soon as Stockpool Pro is active again they work, with nothing to re-enter. Stockpool updates the stock status of the products they link within a minute or so of activating.
