The current release

Know what you’re installing.

Version 1.2.11

Start here

Download the ZIP from My Account. Back up your site, install it through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, and activate its declared dependencies. Follow the included setup guide, then try this workflow with sample data: Publish a member discussion. Verify the result on your own theme before using it for customers.

Requirements

WordPress 6.9+; PHP 7.4+;

Release checks: WordPress 7.1 · PHP 8.3.30. WooCommerce-dependent workflows checked with WooCommerce 11.1.0. This is not a guarantee for every theme or extension.

Scope & important limits

Use the included documentation to configure this plugin for your roles, theme and WooCommerce setup. Start with a non-sensitive test record; third-party integrations and custom themes require their own compatibility checks.

How it fits

From setup to useful output in three understandable steps.

  2. 2Preview the source-backed thread result
  3. 3Install and configure member access

No setup. Sample data only.

Publish a member discussion

Explore representative controls and sample outcomes before you install. For administrator-only tools, the output preview demonstrates results rather than a public widget. No demo action sends email, takes payment, calls a provider, or changes the production database.

Before you install

Straight answers, before checkout.

How does Deluxe Plugins charge for this product?

The displayed price is charged in full for a prepaid 12-month software subscription. Only the full prepaid 12-month term is offered. Unless canceled before renewal, the next charge occurs one year after purchase. Cancel future renewal from My Account; access continues through the current paid-through date.

What does the interactive demo include?

It is a representative simulation with fictional records and sample outcomes, not a live installation of the plugin. Administrator-only tools show an output preview rather than a public widget. It does not expose the store admin, paid source code, customer records, payments, email, providers, or production settings.

What do I receive?

You receive the installable WordPress plugin ZIP associated with this product. The product details below describe licensing, billing, updates, support, and any external-service requirements.

Can I test the plugin workflow before buying?

Yes. Explore the representative backend workflow and the frontend or output preview linked above. Both use isolated sample data and reset when reloaded. They illustrate the workflow; they do not test your own theme, providers, or integrations.

Will the admin demo save what I enter?

Changes remain only in memory inside the current tab and disappear when the demo is reset, reloaded, or closed. Do not enter private or confidential information.
