Installation & setup

This guide covers installing ListoWP Pro, activating your license, and placing the app on a page. It takes only a few minutes, and there is a short checklist at the end to help you finish setting things up.

Requirements

ListoWP needs:

• WordPress 6.5 or newer
• PHP 8.0 or newer

On older setups the plugin stays inactive and shows a clear notice explaining what to update. Ask your host if you are unsure which versions your site runs.

Install and activate

1. In wp-admin, go to Plugins, then Add New, and upload the ListoWP Pro .zip file you received.
2. Click Activate. A new ListoWP menu appears in the wp-admin sidebar.

Enter your license key

Your license unlocks updates and support.

1. Go to ListoWP, then the License tab.
2. Paste your license key and click activate.

You can deactivate the key here later if you need to move ListoWP to another site.

Add the app to a page

ListoWP runs inside a normal WordPress page. Create or edit the page where you want it, then add the app one of two ways:

• Block editor: add the ListoWP block.
• Shortcode: place the [listowp] shortcode in a page, post, or any widget area that accepts shortcodes.

Publish the page and open it while logged in to see your Lists, Tasks, and Inbox.

First-run checklist

Once the app is on a page, a few settings under the ListoWP menu are worth a look:

1. Appearance – set the default color scheme and accent color to match your site.
2. Tasks – decide where Attachments, Comments, and Reactions are available, and set allowed file types and size for Attachments.
3. Private – choose which Smart Lists (Due, Scheduled, Repeating, All, Done, Inbox) are enabled, along with their color and icon.
4. Cowork – decide whether people can move Tasks between Cowork lists.
5. Advanced – if you want to limit ListoWP to certain WordPress user roles, set that in the Limit Access box.
