Paid version
The free version from WordPress plugins directory and the paid version are technically the same. The only difference is the way you support this plugin developement: with the free version, you join the community experience (please rate and comment), while the paid version helps us to dedicate resources to this project.
Requirements
- OpenSimulator 0.9.x (0.9.2.2 recommended). 0.8.x and earlier version might work and used to, but are definitely not supported anymore
- Latest WordPdress release
- PHP 8.x or later (8.2 recommended), and the PHP extensions recommended by WordPress (particularly xmlrpc, curl and ImageMagick )
