Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Patreon WordPress

Patreon WordPress works with any theme.

Patreon WordPress should not affect functioning of any of your other plugins. Patreon WordPress sticks to WP coding standards and would play nice with any other plugin that does the same.

Yes, you can use Patreon WordPress side by side with any other membership plugin.

You can easily install and use Patreon WordPress alongside WooCommerce at the same time.

Your patrons do not get charged again if they unlock any post on your site via the 'Unlock with Patreon' button. The plugin just checks if they are qualifying patrons, and if so, it lets them access your content.

Not at all - you can post different content totally independently at your site and Patreon.

Nothing will be changed at your site - the plugin will just connect your site to Patreon to allow communication in between your site and Patreon.

You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. The Patchstack team help validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities. Report a security vulnerability.
