Pro Installation
Prerequisites
Vector Expressions Pro requires the free Vector Expressions plugin to be installed and active. The Pro plugin extends the core engine — it cannot run standalone.
- Ensure Vector Expressions (free) is installed: Installation Guide
- Verify it appears as active in Plugins → Installed Plugins.
Installing Pro
Pro is distributed as a ZIP file provided via your purchase receipt.
- Download
vector-expressions-pro.zipfrom your account dashboard. - In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin.
- Upload the ZIP and click Install Now.
- Click Activate Plugin.
Entering Your License Key
After activation, navigate to Settings → VE Pro License. Enter your license key in the License Key field and click Activate License.
License Validation: License activation requires an outgoing HTTP request to the Vector Arrow licensing server. Ensure your server can make outbound HTTPS requests.
TIP
Staging and development sites can share your production license without consuming an extra activation. Enter your production domain in the Production URL field — the plugin will validate against that domain’s license instead of the local URL.
Verifying the Installation
With both plugins active, open the Block Editor. The Vector Expressions inspector panel will now show the Attribute Bindings section and additional completions from the expanded modifier library. If ACF, Meta Box, or WooCommerce are active, their field roots will also appear in the sidebar.
