Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ESM Membership & Auth

No. Its primary membership and authentication features work on a standalone WordPress installation.

No. Activation is load-only. Site-changing setup is performed only after an administrator explicitly applies Membership setup.

No. Explicit setup reuses compatible existing routes where possible and does not overwrite the content or ownership metadata of pages owned by another system.

Standalone authentication mail is sent through WordPress wp_mail(). Site administrators may use their normal WordPress SMTP or mail-delivery plugin.

No. Completed standalone registrations create normal WordPress users in wp_users. Plugin-owned tables store bounded registration workflow data, verification state, consent evidence, and outbox records.

Shadow mode remains the default. External Provider mode is opt-in and runtime-gated. WordPress accounts remain in wp_users, while ESM Participant and connected ESM services remain owned by Core.

No. WordPress users and Core-owned ESM data are never deleted by this plugin. Plugin-owned tables, options, and plugin-owned user meta are removed only when the administrator explicitly enables the uninstall deletion setting before uninstalling.
