DiceStack is a free, all-in-one WordPress plugin that replaces a whole stack of separate (and often paywalled) plugins — caching, security, SEO, WooCommerce enhancements, backups, image optimization and more — 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.
Looking for a WordPress cache plugin, security plugin, SEO plugin, backup plugin, or image optimizer — and tired of installing five different ones that slow your site down? DiceStack gives you 170+ tools in a single install, every feature free, with no locked “Pro” tier and no ads.
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.

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.
