Hyvä Theme is Now Open Source: What This Means for Magento Community - Mageplaza
Hyvä is now Open Source and free. Discover what changed, what remains commercial, how it impacts the Magento ecosystem, and how to maximize its full potential.
As the Magento 2 ecosystem advances, from January 2026, certain Mageplaza extensions are upgraded or streamlined to deliver more value and long-term stability. To help you understand what this means for your store, we’ve outlined exactly what changes you’ll see, how your subscription is managed, and the support you can rely on moving forward.
Please note that these changes apply only to selected extensions. All other extensions will continue to operate as normal. If any of your extensions are affected, you will see a tooltip next to the corresponding license in your dashboard - please check there for details.
In some cases, an extension enters a stable long-term state. You can continue using it normally, and support remains available, but the feature set stays as-is with no further development or compatibility updates.
In this case, an extension receives a boost in capability. By updating to the latest version, you instantly gain new or refined features that make the extension more powerful without changing how you use it.
If you already use the primary extension:
You get full support, including:

This approach ensures that merchants are protected and supported even when we reorganize or consolidate our product lineup.
Mageplaza is optimizing its extension ecosystem to ensure better long-term performance, stability, and value for merchants. Some extensions are being integrated into more complete solutions to eliminate overlap and deliver a stronger, unified feature set. Others are no longer receiving new features because they have reached a stable state or are being replaced by more modern and scalable functionality.
This approach allows us to focus development efforts on higher-quality updates, improved compatibility, and more powerful products that meet current Magento and Adobe Commerce standards.
No. Your current extension will continue working normally.
If it comes with a fixed feature set, you simply won’t receive new updates.
If it’s integrated into a new one, you can switch to the new extension version at your convenience and continue receiving improvements and compatibility updates.
If your subscription is still active, you don’t need to pay anything - you can download the latest merged version immediately.
If your subscription has expired and you want to download the latest version, you need to renew at the new extension’s pricing.
You will receive an email notification, and you can also check your Dashboard Licenses and view the tooltip for more information.
Yes. These changes apply alongside Mageplaza’s current Terms & Conditions. To view the full Terms & Conditions, click here.
