CodeBard's Patron Button and Widgets for Patreon

Beschrijving

This free plugin allows you to add a Patreon Button under the content to have your users to become your patrons on Patreon easily. It also provides two customizable Widgets that you can use in your sidebar.

The buttons and widgets blend in with your theme seamlessly. You can use the new or old Patreon button or you can use your own button image.

You can customize the call to action text over the buttons or turn them on/off, as well as use your own call to action text. You can disable the Buttons under content if you wish to use only the Widgets as well.

You can enter the default account to be used in buttons in plugin options page.

Bovendien kunnen alle auteurs hun eigen Patreon-gebruikersnaam aan hun profiel toevoegen om voor de knoppen te gebruiken, zodat de knoppen die onder hun berichten worden weergegeven en de auteurwidget in de zijbalk naar hun Patreon-profiel gaan. Deze functie kan desgewenst worden uitgeschakeld via de plug-in-instellingen met de optie “Siteknop forceren in plaats van auteur”.

Meer functies zijn gepland zodra ze beschikbaar komen in Patreon API.

Je kan upgraden naar Patron Plugin Pro, de Patron Content Manager add-on toevoegen en krachtige opties voor het vergrendelen van inhoud inschakelen om alleen Patron inhoud van je eigen site aan te bieden! Met Patron Plugin Pro kan je jouw klanten ook rechtstreeks naar de patroonpijplijn plaatsen in plaats van naar uw profiel. Bekijk het hieronder:

Activeer na de installatie de plugin en dat is alles.

You should fill in the Site Patreon Account in plugin settings page. This is the Patreon account which will be used for buttons for any user who did not put their Patreon account in their profile on your site.

You will find the two widgets you can use in your Appearance -> Widgets section. Widgets are customizable

Installatie

  1. Activeer de plugin
  2. A “CB Patreon” menu item will be added to your WordPress Admin Menu
  3. At least visit this menu and fill in the “Site/Admin Patreon Account” field with the username/slug you entered to “Personal Patreon url” field in your Patreon Profile. This will be the default Patreon user for all buttons.
  4. Klaar.
  5. You can find two widgets in Appearance -> Widgets.

This review is for the Pro version of this plugin. I've had this plugin for a couple of weeks hoping I could work out the bugs, but it doesn't categorically do everything it says it does, as easily as it implies. I even contacted the devs prior to purchase with specific questions regarding theme interference and customizability, which were all met with affirmations of functions that would meet my needs. But no. Out-of-the-box, it's easy to install and integrate into Patreon. However, the documentation is poor beyond those functions. If you use the base editor in WP you will fare better than with a more robust theme. If you don't have a code-level ability to work with shortcodes, this plugin will be problematic for you. The post type page functions (buttons) that are added aren't easily controllable with other themes (Divi), or at least not without editing site code. The hooks added into post types that allow users to login via Patreon to see site contents are not obvious in how to configure. There are options for sidebar widgets, a button lower in the page, sectional prompts. It isn't clear on initial examination which are automatically placed on post types and which truly are optional, if you have to use the side bar widget, etc. The post type button natively appears at the bottom of the page and theoretically can be moved. It doesn't move higher on the page when I adjust it, even when I turn off my theme. It's not my theme causing the button not to move. Also, I can't troubleshoot my patrons who can't access the locked content because there's no sandbox option to see what they are seeing so that I could maybe talk them through it. Tech support is very quickly responsive, though their answers aren't thorough and don't have existing, clear documentation to point to for further depth. There is NO DOCUMENTATION for patrons who can't access content, and I don't know how to blindly walk them through their end of it. This plugin is a great idea, but it isn't there yet for flexibility, ease of use, or thorough documentation. And really, there's not a better replacement plugin. It's poor business that you have to purchase this plugin first, and then be stuck with it when it doesn't work properly. My concern is that I will lose patrons because of this plugin, because it still has a lot of quirks that aren't fully fleshed out and the documentation isn't fully explanatory.

The plugin looks really useful, but in my case does not work properly and interferes with other plugins. I've been patient with custom service, but after three weeks without any service I can't give this plugin a good review. I feel deceived when I pay for something that I don't get. It's a shame because this would be a really useful plugin, but what I got is more than three weeks losing time and money. So I don't recommend Patreon Button, Widgets and Plugin by CodeBard.

I will change this review if Code Bard is able to help. [website reference removed] I cannot fix it inside of the widget and it's costing me money. I need it fixed right away. Thank you. As far as the help desk thing, it was an endless loop of error messages saying my password wasn't valid and other such things. Super frustrating process.

This plugin overrode my website's primary color, and turned it from yellow to blue. Avoid at all costs. If they help me fix it, I will change this review.

Beside adding the Patreon buttons where you need them, you also get quite many options to update them and have them exactly where you want them. It's a more complex plugin than it might look at first. It just works. Very recommended.
