This page walks you through installing TrueCommander on a WordPress site and running your first command. If you have ever installed a WordPress plugin from a file, none of this will surprise you.
Step 1: Get your license and download
Purchase a license from the pricing page. Your account at my.trueplugins.com is created automatically at checkout, no separate registration. Sign in with the email you used to buy, and download the plugin .zip from your dashboard.
Keep your license key handy. It is in the same dashboard, and you will paste it in once the plugin is active.
Step 2: Install it in WordPress
In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin. Choose the .zip you downloaded, click Install Now, then Activate. That is the whole install.
TrueCommander runs entirely inside wp-admin. It adds nothing to your site's front end, so visitors never load a single line of its code.
Step 3: Activate your license
After activation, open the TrueCommander settings and paste in your license key. Activating unlocks one year of updates and direct support from the dev team. You can view and manage your activations anytime from your account dashboard.
Step 4: Open the navigator and run a command
Press ++W anywhere in wp-admin to open the navigator. Start typing what you want to do, for example create backup, and press Enter.
New installs start in easy mode, where you type the command name on its own (create backup). Advanced mode is the same command with a tp prefix (tp create backup). You can switch modes anytime in settings.
That is the core loop: open the navigator, type a command, run it. From here, everything else is just more commands and ways to combine them.
