The idea behind GPLDownload is to help website owners or small developers who have enough knowledge and experience of WordPress that they do not need the technical support that developers provide or who are running low on budget and need to buy the plugins for their own and their client’s projects. Sometimes the plugins needed for a client’s website can run into hundreds of dollars, which is not even the budget in some developing countries. So this site aims to help knowledgeable people who don’t need support or automatic updates to save money.

Most people are familiar with the term ‘open source‘. It means a piece of software or code, that is free to use. You’re free to use, copy, study, change, improve, or redistribute the software as you like.

WordPress is open-source software and is founded upon the GPL (General Public License), which you can read more about over at the WordPress website here

The main point to note is that any software that is built upon WordPress must carry forward the original GPL license.

We feel strongly that plugins and themes are derivative works and thus inherit the GPL license.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU

It doesn’t mean that developers can’t charge you to buy the code they have developed. What it does mean is that once you have bought that code, you are free to do whatever you like with it.

… if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

— GPLv2 license

So, it’s perfectly legal to download the plugins and themes from this site. Download as many as you like and use them in as many projects as you want.

So, if you need ongoing technical support for a product, please consider buying from the developer. Links to each developer are provided on the product pages.

We think we have clarified that while the products on GPL download are the original products – we are not the original authors. We are simply redistributing the software, as it is our right to do so, under the GPL license. But for the avoidance of any doubt or confusion:

We are not connected, associated with, or endorsed by companies whose products are mentioned on this site. Any mention of these companies is purely so that our customers are not misled as to the original source of the product and have the choice whether to buy from us or them.
