Hi,
We don’t have plans for this at the moment.
This is because Dashify Pro builds on top of the code in the free version. If we made it so Dashify Pro worked without the free version, it would mean moving the code into Dashify Pro, which would be the same amount of code overall. Therefore, the performance impact would be the same. Also, in that kind of a setup, the process to upgrade might be confusing for people who use the free version for a while and then later get Dashify Pro, as they would have to uninstall the free version. Otherwise, they’d have the free code in both plugins.
Hopefully that makes sense as to why we have the two plugins that must both be active.
What’s important to keep in mind is that we’ve optimized Dashify and Dashify Pro so there’s no “double code”, and therefore it will not take up extra space or slow down your site.
Let me know if I understood correctly!
