Pay Per Post Frequently Asked Questions

Please check the user guide to learn more about this plugin.

Can I use both EDD/WooCommerce and Micropayments?

Even though the plugin supports all these 3 payments systems, you need to choose and use only 1 of them, as they don’t work together at the same time.

Is there a way for users to view and track their subscriptions on WordPress?

Yes. Using the shortcode [cmppp-subscriptions] you can let each of your subscribers view exactly which pages and posts they are subscribed to and how much time they have left until their subscription expires. Once you insert this shortcode into the protected page or post, users will be able to see their subscriptions on WordPress frontend, and renew them if needed.

To learn more about this feature see this Help article.

Can I restrict content from other plugins?

It’s possible, but it depends on the other plugin.

Example: you can combine PPP with CM Answers and charge visitors to access each question.

Note that is a general rule. We cannot guarantee compatibility with other plugins, as that involves code we don’t control.
