Version covered
These docs describe SiteNivo Free through v1.2.3+ on WordPress 6.0+ / PHP 8.1+. Pro features are labeled clearly and are not available to install yet.
What SiteNivo is
SiteNivo replaces a pile of single-purpose plugins with one admin menu. You model content (CPTs, taxonomies, field groups), then operate the site (SMTP, redirects, tracking, social buttons, security, comments, maintenance) without leaving SiteNivo.
Configuration for builders lives in dedicated SiteNivo tables. Field values stay in standard WordPress meta and options — so themes and migrations behave the way you already expect.
