Installation

Install Ziflite MCP correctly.

Set up the Free/Core plugin first, then add Pro on top when needed. No MCP license key or activation server is required.

Before you begin

  • Use a WordPress Administrator account.
  • Keep a recent backup of the site.
  • Make sure the site is reachable over HTTPS.
  • Use the current ZIP supplied by Ziflite Studio.

Install Ziflite MCP Free

  1. Open Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
  2. Select the Ziflite MCP Free ZIP file.
  3. Click Install Now.
  4. When WordPress finishes, click Activate Plugin.
  5. Open Ziflite MCP from the WordPress dashboard.
Free is the core plugin. Keep it installed even if you later upgrade to Pro.

Install Ziflite MCP Pro

Ziflite MCP Pro is a separate add-on. It extends the Free/Core plugin rather than replacing it.

  1. Purchase Ziflite MCP Pro from Ziflite Studio.
  2. Download the Pro ZIP from your completed order or My Account.
  3. Confirm Ziflite MCP Free/Core is installed and active.
  4. Go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
  5. Upload the Pro ZIP and activate it.
  6. Open Ziflite MCP and refresh the capability report.
No license activation: Pro functionality comes from having the Pro add-on installed and active.

After installation

  • Review the readiness and capability report.
  • Confirm the MCP endpoint shown by the plugin.
  • Connect a compatible MCP client.
  • Start with inspection/read tasks before approving write operations.

Updating and removing

Keep a backup before manual ZIP replacement. When updating Pro, keep Free/Core active unless release notes explicitly say otherwise. If you want to return to Free, deactivate the Pro add-on. Removing Ziflite MCP does not remove ZifChat or alter ZifChat licensing.
