Fully compatible with HPOS and modern WooCommerce, from day one
WooCommerce's move to High-Performance Order Storage broke a lot of older extensions that assumed orders would always live in the legacy posts table. Merchants running multistore setups have been left choosing between upgrading their store's performance or keeping their sync tooling working — a choice they shouldn't have to make.
Stillpoint is built and tested against HPOS from the ground up, alongside the traditional posts-table storage, so switching order storage modes on any connected store never breaks order sync. It runs cleanly across PHP 7.4 through 8.3 and tracks current WooCommerce and WordPress releases, so your multistore network stays compatible as the core platform evolves.
Key benefits
Native HPOS support
Order sync reads and writes correctly whether a store uses HPOS or legacy order storage, with no manual configuration required.
Mixed-mode networks supported
One store can run HPOS while another still uses the legacy table, and Stillpoint syncs correctly between them regardless.
PHP 7.4 through 8.3
Works across the PHP version range most WooCommerce hosts actually run, so you're not forced into a disruptive server upgrade just to install it.
Tracks current WooCommerce releases
Compatibility is verified against the latest stable WooCommerce versions as they ship, not left to catch up months later.
No deprecated API dependencies
Built on WooCommerce's supported CRUD and data store APIs rather than direct database queries that HPOS migrations would otherwise break.
Safe to upgrade stores independently
You can migrate one store to HPOS ahead of the others without pausing or reconfiguring sync across the network.
How it works
- 1
Detect storage mode
On each sync, Stillpoint checks whether the target store is running HPOS or legacy order storage.
- 2
Use the correct data layer
Order reads and writes go through WooCommerce's official CRUD objects, which resolve correctly to either storage backend.
- 3
Sync order data
Line items, statuses, customer details and metadata sync the same way regardless of which storage mode is active.
- 4
Verify compatibility on updates
Each Stillpoint release is tested against current WooCommerce and WordPress versions before shipping.
- 5
Report any mismatch
If a store's environment falls outside supported PHP or WooCommerce versions, the hub flags it in the activity log rather than failing silently.
Real-world examples
A shoe retailer's UK hub store enables HPOS to speed up its high order volume, while the smaller AU store, still on an older hosting plan, remains on legacy order storage for now. Order sync between the two continues without any changes needed on either side.
When the retailer's hosting provider pushes a PHP 8.2 upgrade across all three stores — UK, AU and DE — as part of routine server maintenance, sync jobs keep running through the upgrade window without errors or the need to reinstall anything.
Ahead of a WooCommerce major release, the retailer's operations manager checks Stillpoint's changelog and confirms compatibility has already been verified, so the update can be applied to all three stores in the same maintenance window without staging each one separately out of caution.
Who it's for
For multi-store merchants and agencies running current or soon-to-be-current WooCommerce environments who need sync tooling that won't lag behind core platform changes.
