Terms and Conditions

These terms cover your use of slugsync.com. The plugin has its own open-source GPL licence.

Last updated 24 August 2026

The agreement

These terms are between you and Armin Kapetanovic, an individual developer based in Bosnia and Herzegovina, trading as SlugSync. In what follows, “we”, “us” and “our” mean that publisher; “you” and “your” mean you, the visitor.

By accessing slugsync.com you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the site. That is the whole of the bargain — there is nothing to sign and no account to create.

The site and the software

This is the distinction that matters most on this page, so it comes first.

These terms govern the website. The SlugSync plugin is governed by its own licence — the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later. Where the two conflict, the GPL wins for anything to do with the software. Nothing on this page removes, limits or adds a condition to the freedoms that licence gives you.

The free plugin

SlugSync is free software released under GPL-2.0-or-later. You may run it for any purpose, study it, modify it, and redistribute your modified version under the same licence. It is free of charge and there is no trial, no item limit, and nothing that expires.

SlugSync Free 1.0.0 is published in the WordPress.org plugin directory, and most download buttons on this site lead there. A small number of buttons — used to check for updates or verify a build before installing — instead serve a copy of the current public GitHub build synchronized to this site, with release notes and a SHA-256 digest.

It is also, as the GPL puts it, provided without any warranty. SlugSync changes many URLs at once on a live website. It shows you every planned change, keeps old links working where WordPress allows it, and lets you undo an update. You are still responsible for making a database backup before you start.

Take a database backup before your first run. That is not boilerplate; it is the single most useful thing you can do, and it is the reason the plugin shows you a preview instead of just getting on with it.

SlugSync Pro

SlugSync Pro is coming soon and cannot be purchased yet. SlugSync Free is now published in the WordPress.org plugin directory; Pro will launch once its download, licence and update paths have passed final checks. The price shown on the homepage may change before launch.

The current plan is below. Before sales open, the homepage and these terms will state the final licence scope, delivery and recovery process, update entitlement, support terms, payment and tax handling, and refund policy at the point of purchase.

  • One purchase covers unlimited sites under the licensed email address. There is no renewal and no site count to manage.
  • The licence is checked privately on your own website and does not contact an activation server. Technically, the key uses an offline Ed25519 signature.
  • Pro is also GPL-licensed source code. Buyers receive the source, as the licence requires. What you are paying for is the work, the updates and the support — not a restriction on the code.
  • No order can currently be placed. The exact refund conditions will be published before a buy button is enabled.

The waiting list

When you join the Pro waiting list, we will send one email when Pro launches. It is not a newsletter, purchase or reservation. We do not share the list, and you can ask to be removed at any time. See the Privacy Policy for how the submission is handled.

Joining the list is not a purchase or reservation, and it does not guarantee a particular launch date or price. The launch email will contain the confirmed price and purchase terms.

Release updates

The release-update list is a separate list from the waiting list above, and joining one does not put you on the other. It sends a short email whenever a new SlugSync build is published: what changed, and the SHA-256 of the ZIP. It is not a newsletter, it carries no advertising, and we do not share the list.

Every one of those emails carries a link that deletes your address from the list, and your mail client’s own unsubscribe button works as well. You can also ask us to remove it. Being on the list does not entitle you to any particular release schedule, and we may stop sending the updates at any time. See the Privacy Policy for how the submission is handled.

Our content

Unless stated otherwise, the text, images, logo and page design on slugsync.com are ours, and all rights in them are reserved. You may read them, link to them, and quote reasonable extracts with attribution.

Without written permission you may not:

  • Republish material from this site as your own.
  • Sell, rent or sub-license material from this site.
  • Reproduce, duplicate or copy this site's design or copy in substance.
  • Use the SlugSync name or logo in a way that suggests we endorse, supply or are affiliated with you.

Again, and to be clear: this section covers the marketing site. It does not cover the plugin's source code, which you are free to copy under the GPL.

Acceptable use

Do not use this site to break the law, and do not attack it. Specifically, do not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site or its host, probe it for vulnerabilities beyond good-faith security research, scrape it in a way that degrades it for others, submit anything through its forms that is unlawful, abusive or deceptive, or use it to distribute malware.

If you find a security problem, we would rather hear about it than not. Report it through the contact form and we will not come after you for having looked.

Advertising

This site carries advertising served by Google AdSense, which is part of how the free plugin stays free. We choose whether to run ads and where; we do not choose the individual ads, and an ad appearing here is not a recommendation, an endorsement or a statement that we have checked the advertiser.

Any dealing you have with an advertiser is between you and them. We are not a party to it and are not liable for it. What the ads do with cookies, and how to turn the personalisation off, is set out in the Privacy Policy.

Linking to us

You may link to slugsync.com without asking, from any page, as long as the link is not deceptive, does not falsely imply sponsorship or endorsement, and does not sit in a context that would reasonably embarrass us — unlawful, obscene or defamatory material, for example. We may ask you to remove a link, and we would rather ask than escalate.

Do not frame our pages, or present them inside your own interface in a way that alters how they appear.

Links from us

This site links out to GitHub, wordpress.org, documentation and other third-party resources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their availability or their privacy practices. A link is a pointer, not a warranty.

Your privacy

How this site handles data is set out in full in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.

No warranty

The site and everything on it are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law we exclude all representations, warranties and conditions relating to this site and its use, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the information here is complete or accurate, that the site will be available without interruption, or that it is free of errors. Documentation, comparison tables and FAQ answers describe the software as we understand it at the time of writing; software changes, and so does WordPress.

Limitation of liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited. Those exclusions come first and everything below is subject to them.

Subject to that, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, nor for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, lost traffic or lost search rankings, arising out of your use of this site or of the free plugin — whether the claim is brought in contract, in tort, or for breach of statutory duty.

The site and the free plugin are supplied at no charge, and our total liability in connection with them is limited accordingly. Where you have paid us for something, our total liability in connection with it is limited to the amount you paid.

Indemnity

If your use of this site in breach of these terms causes a claim to be brought against us, you agree to cover the reasonable costs of defending it.

Availability and changes

We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of this site at any time, including these terms. When the terms change, the date at the top of this page changes with it, and continuing to use the site afterwards means you accept the new version. We do not maintain the site to any promised uptime and there is no support commitment attached to the free plugin.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the courts of Bosnia and Herzegovina have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory consumer law in your own country.

If a provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force.

Contact

Questions about these terms go through the contact form. For bugs and feature requests, the GitHub repository is the better address — the discussion is public and other people benefit from it.
