FAQ

Does Plover Kit work with any WordPress theme?

Yes. Plover Kit is built for the block editor (Gutenberg) and works with any modern WordPress theme that supports blocks, including classic themes with the block editor enabled. For the best experience, we recommend using a block theme like Plover Themes, Twenty Twenty-Four, or any other FSE-compatible theme.

Will Plover Kit slow down my website?

No. Plover Kit follows a modular design – you only enable the modules you actually need. Unused modules are completely disabled and do not load any code on your site. This ensures optimal performance and minimal impact on page speed.

Do I need coding skills to use Plover Kit?

No coding required. All features are designed to be used directly within the WordPress block editor – no shortcodes, no custom PHP, no editing theme files. You can add icons, animations, layout controls, and more with just a few clicks.

What’s the difference between the free and premium versions?

The free version includes most basic features, while some advanced options and modules require upgrading to the premium version. The Premium customers also receive priority and private technical support.

Check our Free vs Premium page for details.

Can I use Plover Kit with other page builders (Elementor, Beaver Builder, etc.)?

Plover Kit is specifically designed for the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). While it may coexist with other page builders, its features are only available when editing with blocks. We recommend using it with block-based themes and workflows.

How do I enable or disable specific modules?

After installing and activating the plugin, go to Plover Kit Modules in your WordPress admin. You’ll see a list of all available modules with toggle switches. Simply turn on the ones you need and turn off the ones you don’t.

Does Plover Kit collect any data? / What about privacy?

Some features like Icon Library and Pattern Library fetch content from our external servers to provide up-to-date icons and patterns. No personal data is collected. You can review our full Privacy policy and Terms & Conditions.

I’m missing a feature. Can I request it?

Absolutely! We love feedback. Please visit our support forum or contact us via our website to suggest new features.

Is there a multi-language support?

Yes. Plover Kit is translation-ready and has been translated into several languages. You can contribute translations via translate.wordpress.org.

How do I get support?

For free users, please use the WordPress.org support forum. Premium users get priority support via email – check your purchase receipt for details.

This plugin has a lot of useful features that are available without a subscription, including a dark mode icon that actually works. It works best with the Plover theme or child theme.
