Permalink Manager Pro is a stand-alone plugin that requires no additional software to function.
The plugin's installation is a simple procedure, and all you need to do to get it running on your website is download the most recent version of the plugin and put it there. In order to get the plugin files, you will need to enter your license key into the form below.
If you are presently using the free version of the plugin and need to upgrade to the Pro version for whatever reason, the procedure is fairly simple. The upgrade process is absolutely risk-free, and none of your data, including any custom permalinks or settings, will be lost at any point throughout the migration process.
