Installing the Plugin

Before you start, make sure you have:

  • WordPress 6.2 or higher
  • WooCommerce 7.0 or higher
  • PHP 7.4 or higher

Dino Discounts is fully compatible with WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage).


In your WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins → Add New in the left sidebar.

WordPress admin — Plugins → Add New screen

Type “Dino Discounts” in the search box. The plugin will appear in the results. Click Install Now, then Activate.

Go to Plugins in your admin sidebar. You should see Dino Discounts listed and active.

If you have a .zip file instead:

  1. Go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin
  2. Choose the dino-discounts.zip file and click Install Now
  3. Click Activate

If you use a full-page caching plugin (WP Rocket, WP Super Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, SiteGround Optimizer, etc.), exclude your cart and checkout pages from full-page caching.

Add /cart/ and /checkout/ to your caching plugin’s exclusion list. Without this, discounts may appear not to apply correctly.
