Now included free

PizzaTierPro is now
just PizzaTier

There used to be two plugins: a free builder, and a paid add-on called PizzaTierPro that handled WooCommerce. As of version 2.0 there is one plugin. Every commerce feature — live per-layer pricing, cart submission, the pizza product type, presets, email summaries, order management — ships in the free download. Nothing is held back, and there is no paid tier to move up to.

🧩

One plugin, not two

The add-on was merged into the main plugin. One install, one settings screen, one menu in the WordPress sidebar.

🔓

No license, no tiers

There is no key to enter, no site limit, and no subscription. Install it on as many sites as you like.

📜

Still GPL-2.0

Same license as before, same source on GitHub. Read it, fork it, change it, ship it in client work.

What came across

Everything the paid add-on did,
now in the box

These were the Pro features. They are all in the free plugin now, unchanged.

💰

Live Price Calculation

Each ingredient nudges the running total the instant it's chosen, all in the browser — no reloads, no mental math.

🧮

Per-Layer Pricing Grid

One grid in the product editor holds the price for every crust, sauce, cheese, topping, drizzle, and cut in a single place.

🛒

WooCommerce Cart Submit

A finished pizza drops straight into the WooCommerce cart, carrying its full ingredient breakdown along with the line item.

🍕

"Pizza" Product Type

A pizza-specific WooCommerce product type, registered as a taxonomy term rather than post meta so it stays compatible with HPOS.

⚙️

Product Configurator

A meta box on the product edit screen where you set the base price, wire up per-layer pricing, and attach builder options to the product.

📋

Preset Management

Publish named house pizzas — a Margherita, a House Special — that customers pick in one tap and can still tweak before checking out.

📧

Email Order Summaries

Order emails to both the customer and the kitchen include the whole pizza spelled out — every layer and price — so nothing gets guessed at the counter.

🧾

Rich Order Details

Each order gains its own PizzaTier panel that lays out the full build for whoever's making it.

📊

Per-Template Checkout Bars

A sticky checkout bar that borrows the look of whichever template you're using, matched across all eight.

🏪

Ordering Without a Shop

A built-in order system takes orders on sites that have no WooCommerce at all — order records, status tracking, and staff notes included.

🎛️

Admin Help & Setup Guide

A setup guide and help page live inside WP admin and walk you through configuration one step at a time.

🔧

Developer Hooks

PHP filters and a scoped JavaScript API cover the commerce flow too, so pricing and cart behaviour stay as extensible as the builder itself.

Straight from the admin

The commerce tools,
as you'll actually see them.

These are real screenshots of the ordering and pricing screens that ship in the free plugin. Click any of them to take a closer look.

New Pizza Wizard Build a pizza product in five steps — info, preset, layers, pricing, publish — choosing exactly which layers customers see.
Global Price Grids Site-wide default prices per layer type, size, and coverage — whole, half, or quarter — with per-product overrides when needed.
Cart & Pricing Settings WooCommerce behaviour for every pizza product: live price bar, size selector, cart redirects, and required selections.
Preset Builder Compose house pizzas with a live preview, then drop them anywhere with their own shortcode.
Ordering Settings Choose what happens on order: record it in WordPress, send it to the WooCommerce cart or checkout, do both, or notify only.
Bulk Pricing Tools Fill whole grids in a couple of clicks when you'd rather not type the same price forty times.

Moving from 1.x to 2.0

If you have PizzaTier and PizzaTierPro installed side by side, the upgrade is four steps. Your ingredients, pricing grids, presets, and existing orders all carry over.

  1. 1
    Back up first

    Standard practice for any major version bump. A database snapshot is enough.

  2. 2
    Update PizzaTier to 2.0

    Install the new zip over your existing plugin. On first load it migrates the old pizzatierpro_settings into the merged settings automatically.

  3. 3
    Deactivate and delete PizzaTierPro

    The old add-on is now redundant. PizzaTier 2.0 detects it, deactivates it, and explains why with an admin notice — but removing it yourself keeps things tidy.

  4. 4
    Check your product and a test order

    Open a Pizza product, confirm the pricing grid still reads correctly, then run one pizza through the cart end to end.

The obvious questions

About the change

PizzaTier is a one-person project built in Hilo. Splitting it across two plugins meant two codebases, two support surfaces, two sets of release notes, and a dependency check that broke in ways nobody enjoyed. Folding it into one free plugin costs far less to maintain and gets the builder in front of more pizzerias — which was the point of writing it.

No. There are no keys, no activation step, no site limits, and nothing to renew. Download it and install it.

No. If you run WooCommerce, PizzaTier plugs into it for cart and checkout. If you don't, the built-in ordering system takes orders on its own — order records, status tracking, and staff notes, without a shop plugin.

PizzaTier 2.0 spots it, deactivates it, and shows a notice explaining why — the merged plugin already contains everything it did, so running both would duplicate hooks. Delete it once you've confirmed the upgrade went cleanly. See the steps above.

Yes. Pricing grids, presets, ingredient data, product configuration, and past orders all carry over. The upgrade runs a one-time settings migration on first load and records that it's done, so it never repeats.

It is — GPL-2.0, same as it always was, with the source on GitHub. See the license page for the details.

One plugin. Every feature. No invoice.
