Changelog

3.0.0

Rebrand from DuckDev to Foxe Labs, and a rename from freemius-plugin-licensing to wp-freemius-client to match the sibling wp-* libraries.

Required: migrate your activation data

This release renames the option that stores every license activation. Host plugins must migrate it themselves — the library does not. If you skip this step there is no error and no warning: every license silently reads as inactive, activation UI resets, and premium update delivery stops.

See Migrating from 2.x for the migration recipe.

Changed

• Composer package renamed duckdev/freemius-plugin-licensing → foxelabs/wp-freemius-client.
• Namespace renamed DuckDev\Freemius\ → FoxeLabs\Freemius\. Update every use statement.
• Breaking: the activation option key moved from duckdev_freemius_activation_data → foxelabs_freemius_activation_data. This is the one that needs migrating.
• The addon cache transient prefix moved from duckdev_freemius_{plugin_id}_ → foxelabs_freemius_{plugin_id}_. No migration needed — these are 24-hour caches that repopulate on the next API call, and WordPress expires the stale rows on its own.

Unchanged

• Public API (Freemius::get_instance(), license(), update(), addon(), plugin()), the constructor options, and all behaviour.
• The stored activation data shape — only the option name changed, so a straight copy is enough.

2.0.2

• Tests: gate ReflectionProperty::setAccessible on PHP < 8.1.
• CI: consolidate phpcs, phpunit, and release into a single workflow.
• Fix tests: read the response code from the array and drop the deprecated setAccessible call.

2.0.0

• Rewritten as a lite, UI-free Freemius SDK — no admin screens, host plugins own the UI.
• Modular architecture: DI container (Freemius), Api/, Services/ (License, Update, Addon), Storage/, Data/, Contracts/.
• License activation / deactivation, update delivery, and addon listing against the Freemius API.
• Signed API requests using the FS / FSP header-signing scheme.
• Full unit-test suite.
