Getting started with Asteris for WooCommerce

Getting started with Asteris for WooCommerce

Asteris for WooCommerce installs like any other WordPress plugin. Free version: directly from WordPress.org. Paid tiers: download from your asterisforwoocommerce.com account after purchase.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.7 or later
  • WooCommerce 9.0 or later
  • PHP 8.1 or later
  • Minimum 128MB PHP memory limit (256MB recommended for stores with 5,000+ products)

Installing Asteris for WooCommerce Free

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New
  2. Search “Asteris for WooCommerce”
  3. Click Install Now, then Activate
  4. The Asteris for WooCommerce menu item appears in your WP admin sidebar

No licence key needed for Asteris Free.

Installing a paid tier (Starter, Pro, Agency, Founder Lifetime)

  1. After purchase, download the plugin ZIP from your asterisforwoocommerce.com account dashboard
  2. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin
  3. Upload the ZIP and activate
  4. Go to Asteris for WooCommerce → Licence in your WP admin sidebar
  5. Enter your licence key (sent by email on purchase)
  6. Click Activate Licence

If Asteris Free is already installed, installing the paid tier upgrades it automatically. You don’t need to deactivate Asteris Free first.

Enabling modules

After activation, go to Asteris for WooCommerce → Modules in your WP admin.

All 19 modules (or 6, if on Free) are listed. Toggle the ones you want active. Modules activate immediately — no save button.

Start with the modules you know you need. Add more as required. Performance impact is minimal when modules are disabled.

First steps per module

  • SEO module: go to Asteris for WooCommerce → SEO → Settings. Set your title and meta description templates for products and categories.
  • PDF Invoices: go to Asteris for WooCommerce → PDF Invoices → Settings. Configure the invoice template and which order statuses trigger invoice generation.
  • Variation Swatches: no configuration needed — activating the module replaces dropdowns with swatches on all variable products automatically.
  • Product Filtering: go to Asteris for WooCommerce → Filtering → Settings. Add the filter widget to your shop sidebar.
  • Analytics: go to Asteris for WooCommerce → Analytics → Settings. Enter your GA4 Measurement ID.
