Description

DiceStack replaces a whole stack of separate (and often paywalled) plugins with one lightweight, modular toolkit. Switch tools on and off from a single dashboard — when a tool is off, none of its code runs, so your site stays fast.

Every feature is free. There is no locked « Pro » tier.

Built and maintained by Dice Codes.

Why DiceStack

Modular & light — disabled modules load zero code, scripts, or extra database reads.
See the cost of everything — each module shows its memory, front-end JavaScript, and database-query impact so you decide what to keep.
No paywalls — 2FA-grade login protection, schema, spam protection, caching, backups, and more, all included.
Self-hosted first — runs on your own server. Modules that contact an external service ask for consent and link to where to get any keys.

What’s included (170+ modules across 10 categories)

Security — login protection, login & comment captcha, security hardening, security headers, force HTTPS, activity log, 404 monitor, bad-bot blocking, Cloudflare control (Under Attack mode, cache purge), and more.
Performance — page caching with gzip, mobile cache and preloading, Redis / Memcached object cache, minify HTML, defer JavaScript, lazy loading, image optimization, database cleanup, hover prefetch, disable bloat, and more.
SEO & AI — meta tags, schema/JSON-LD, XML-friendly robots, breadcrumbs, FAQ schema, site verification, Analytics (GA4, Tag Manager, Meta Pixel), llms.txt for AI assistants, and a free SEO/AI visibility checker.
Forms — contact form, spam shield, SMTP email, newsletter signup, and a universal submissions tracker that logs entries from the major third-party form plugins in one place.
WooCommerce — checkout field editor, custom order statuses, wishlist, back-in-stock alerts, product badges, catalog mode, quick quantity buttons, and more.
Media — image optimizer, WebP/AVIF uploads, media folders, broken-image finder.
Content & marketing — popups, cookie consent, maintenance mode with shareable bypass link, table of contents, related posts, reading progress, and more.
Site management — backup & restore (no upload limit), cloud backup (FTP/WebDAV/email/Google Drive), monthly client report, update notifications, search & replace, import/export config.
Admin & developer — admin menu editor, hide notices, white label, master search, last-login column, and more.
Accessibility & legal — accessibility toolbar, skip links, focus outlines, reduced-motion, cookie consent, terms consent.

External services

DiceStack itself contacts no external services by default. The following modules connect to a third party only when you enable and configure them, and each field links to where to obtain any required ID/token:

Analytics & tracking — when you add a GA4, Google Tag Manager, or Meta Pixel ID, the corresponding script from Google/Meta is loaded on your front end and visitor analytics is sent to that provider. See Google’s privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and Meta’s (https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/).
Cloudflare control — sends your API token and Zone ID to the Cloudflare API (https://api.cloudflare.com) to change settings you request. Cloudflare privacy policy: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.
Cloud backup — uploads your backup archive to the destination you configure (your own FTP/WebDAV server, an email address, or Google Drive). Google Drive uses a one-time connect via the Dice Codes connector (https://dicecodes.com/dicestack); only an access token is stored.

No data is sent to any of these unless you turn the relevant module on and enter your details.

Installation

In wp-admin go to Plugins Add New Upload Plugin and choose dicestack.zip (or install from the directory).
Activate DiceStack.
Open DiceStack in the admin menu and toggle on the modules you want. Each card shows its performance cost.

FAQ

Does an inactive module slow my site down?: No. When a module is off, its code is never loaded — no hooks, scripts, or database reads. The only baseline cost is one cached option read.
Is it really free?: Yes. Every module is free, with no locked features.
Do I need API keys?: Most modules need nothing. A few optional ones (Analytics, Cloudflare, Google Drive backup) need an ID or token — each field links to exactly where to get it.
How do I request a feature?: Use the « Request a feature » link in the DiceStack dashboard, or email Contact@dicecodes.com.
Who makes DiceStack?: DiceStack is built and maintained by Dice Codes (https://dicecodes.com).

Journal

1.5.16

The « Recommended setup » link now hides itself when there is nothing left to recommend.
Agency Mode has a distinct look and its buttons are clearly scoped to agency tools only.

1.5.15

The « Dashboard » link now sits at the very top of the DiceStack menu, above the tool and post-type pages.

1.5.13

Every DiceStack settings and tool page now uses a consistent modern design (styled headers, cards, buttons and inputs) that matches the main dashboard.

1.5.12

The Recommended-setup scan now checks more high-value tools (security headers, disable XML-RPC, bad-bot blocking, image optimization, heartbeat control, database cleanup).
The Diagnostics page now reports more environment details (database version, HTTPS, permalinks, WP_DEBUG, WP-Cron, object cache, active theme, locale, upload limits).

1.5.11

Fixed a fatal error (« Call to undefined function dicestack_admin_html() ») that could break several settings screens (Backups, Cloud backup, Object cache, Image optimizer, Admin menu editor, Error monitor, Monthly report, Agency Mode).
The admin dashboard now uses a single page scrollbar with a sticky sidebar instead of a nested inner scroll area.

1.5.10

Fixed a WordPress 6.7 « translation loading was triggered too early » notice: modules now load on the init action, so no translated text is requested before init.

1.5.9

Shortcode callbacks that embed other shortcodes now escape their returned HTML with wp_kses_post (recently-viewed and wishlist product grids).
The page-cache and HTML-minify features now serve output through the standard output-buffer callback and readfile(), so no page markup is echoed from a variable.
The shared inline-CSS/JS helpers now neutralise any style/script block break-out at the sink, in addition to callers escaping every dynamic value.
No feature changes — output-safety hardening only.

1.5.8

Security hardening pass for the WordPress.org directory: every admin-screen value is now escaped at the point of output with the appropriate function (esc_html, esc_attr, esc_url, wp_kses).
All request input ($_POST/$_GET/$_FILES) is unslashed and sanitized before use.
Removed the « Hide PHP errors » tool, which changed a server-level setting.
No behavioural changes to any feature — output escaping and input sanitizing only.

1.5.7

Output buffers used for page caching and HTML minification are now explicitly closed.
Removed the WP-Cron control tool.
All remaining inline styles — including on admin screens — now load via wp_enqueue_style / wp_add_inline_style.
Shortcode return values are escaped.
Documentation corrected to match the shipped feature set.

1.5.6

Fixed: login protection now uses the real visitor IP behind a proxy/CDN (opt-in toggle), so a shared proxy IP can no longer lock out every visitor.
Fixed: database search & replace processes rows in batches to avoid memory exhaustion on large sites.

1.5.5

Hardened for the WordPress.org directory: removed the file and code-editing tools, and every inline style/script now loads through the standard wp_enqueue / wp_add_inline_* functions.

1.5.4

Improved: clearer messaging when a tool needs another plugin (for example WooCommerce), with a one-click install link.
Improved: tools that have their own screen now show their settings right there.
Housekeeping: leaner, security-focused build; every tool still loads only when it is enabled.
Tested up to WordPress 7.0.

1.0.0

First public release of DiceStack.
