In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Plugin is Apache onlyIndeed it is intended for LAMP stacks, like WP.
However you can use custom rewrite rules for nginx to make it work. Just visit patreondevelopers.com , WordPress Plugin subforum, and read the topic about using the Image locking feature. There should be custom nginx rules there.
Your auth error doesnt seem to come from Patreon or our plugin. Check with your host if your server/install is able to contact patreon through curl.

In reply to: [CodeBard's Patron Button and Widgets for Patreon] Button LocationNope, its not weird at all – when HTML or CSS is broken via a theme or plugin (or custom code) it would pop up wherever the interpretation of html or css flops. This could have been anything – possibly there are more things broken at the site, but not visible due to being same color with bg or not appearing etc.
A broken HTML or CSS code is something that needs to be debugged directly. Enabling/disabling the plugins and checking validator to see which plugin breaks it, and also testing with other themes to see whether it is the theme are good ideas.
Latest WP version cannot have anything to do with it.

In reply to: [CodeBard's Patron Button and Widgets for Patreon] Button LocationThis is possibly an issue with your theme css or other css being added to your site. Something is possibly forcing it to float to left, or preventing it from being treated as inline-block element.
There are also various important CSS parse errors at your site. These can easily break the rendering of the elements at any point.

In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Only gate the commentsHi there,
Comments are currently not gated.
But with the idea you have they can be gated. Allowing only patrons to log in would naturally cause any login-requiring functionality like comments to be gated.
Comment-gating is not in the to do list for this plugin right now, but login-gating may be an option.
If we dont incorporate it to this (official) one, it may get added to the 3rd party-developed Pro version.

In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Lose the Nag Bar!The nag bar should only happen after updates – if it is permanently there, its either a possible bug in your WP install (caching of admin pages is a potential culprit), or you are using 1.1.0 or earlier.
Updating your installation to 1.1.1 may solve this problem.
Also, please bring your support issue to our official forum:

In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Doesn’t release on datesSorry to hear that you werent able implement the plan you had in mind.
However please note that Patreon WordPress is the official free plugin of Patreon, and these reviews are for this plugin only – not the Pro version.
That said, you can get support for Pro version from its website.
Releasing posts is a WordPress feature, and it needs to be done through WordPress. Neither this, nor Pro plugin are designed to publish posts on a given date. That is, as said, a WordPress feature.
The pro plugin should properly make a post unlocked based on the date you determined, and this feature belongs to that particular plugin.
That is if i understood your predicament right. If not, please contact the Pro plugin via its website and place what you have in mind as a formulated feature request.

In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Little support for WebcomicsSorry to hear that you had trouble in getting full performance from your installation.
But it seems to me you are confusing the official plugin (this one) with Patron Plugin Pro and Patreon Button & Widgets plugin it includes. For, the widgets belong to that plugin.
Pro plugin is documented very well, and links to documentation is included in the files you have got with your package – which were strongly recommended to be read, at least the quickstart one.
Image locking feature is a quite advanced feature in that, this plugin doesnt just put an ugly placeholder image in place of your images like many solutions do. It instead takes the original image, applies well designed filters to it, and obscures the image without breaking the image’s original art and visage.
This, requires sufficient server resources. If you are on a low end hosting, or your server is overloaded, indeed it may cause images to come out slower, at least in the first installation. After generated placeholder images are cached it should not be problem.
You are spot on with the Webcomic compatibility – there are numerous webcomic plugins which do not properly utilize the_content filter, hence they require additional functions in other plugins to lock them. This is something we are aware of, and we possibly will look into it for the upcoming releases.

In reply to: [CodeBard's Patron Button and Widgets for Patreon] TranslationsGreat idea. However currently the plugin is not using gettext translate method wordpress uses.
It has its own language system which is read from files at…
plugin/includes/languages/
…folder.
Any file named with proper language code (like en-US.php) is taken into account when setting up a language by the plugin. And can be switched to, back and forth.
If you just take the en-US.php file inside there, translate all the parts within quotes (the right hand side of the => sign), and save it with the language code you are translating to (ie, es-ES.php for Castilian Spanish), then the translation would just work.
If you also forward the translation to me, we can also include it in the release with credits.
Great!
Yes. Also the info about how to use wp_add_privacy_policy_content is not included in plugin handbook’s privacy section. I was able to learn about them by asking in GDPR channel in WP slack.
I got the answer to this from GDPR channel at WP slack – per Allen:
wp_add_privacy_policy_content adds that section to /wp-admin/tools.php?wp-privacy-policy-guide=1 , from where the site owner is supposed to copy that section and add to the privacy page the site uses. This may be a plugin-generated one or WP generated one.
wp_add_privacy_policy_content doesnt add the section directly to the privacy page 4.9.6 generates. It has to be manually done.

In reply to: [Patreon WordPress] Works well and simplyThe latter part is not incorrect in that this plugin enables you to run a full fledged membership site! Its already powerful, and new features are already in the works for next two releases!
