FAQ
Common questions.
Is the core really free?
Yes. The core plugin is free on WordPress.org. No per-student fees and no trial expiration.
Do I have to buy all the add-ons?
No. Each add-on is standalone, so schools can buy only the modules they need.
Where is my data stored?
Everything runs on the school's own WordPress install, so records stay on their server.
Is it FERPA-friendly?
It is built with role-based access, privacy controls, and audit logging for sensitive student documents.
