Install the required and recommended plugins

The plugins KLEO works with are listed on the Plugins tab of the KLEO Panel (Appearance > KLEO Panel). Each one is marked Required, Recommended or Premium, with its state (Active, Installed, Update available, Not installed) and one button: Install, Activate, Update or Deactivate.

You usually do not need to start here: a demo import installs and activates the plugins that demo needs. Use the Plugins tab to set up a site without a demo, to add an optional plugin later, or to update the premium plugins.

  • Install & activate required installs and activates the missing required plugins in one click.
  • Premium plugins show Requires registration until you register KLEO.

Install only what your site needs: every active plugin adds work to each page load.
