How to install or reinstall the plugin?

Method 1: Upload Patchstack plugin to your WordPress site

You can get the .zip file and upload the plugin to your WordPress site with the API Key already inserted.
For that:

  1. Go to the Patchstack App. Then navigate to My Sites > yourdomain.com > Settings
  2. Click Download latest version
  3. Go to your WordPress admin page, click on Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin
  4. Upload the .zip file
Please note that you can use the same .zip file ONLY ON that one domain since the API key must be unique for each site added to the Patchstack App.


Method 2: Install plugin from WordPress repository

Another way to install the Patchstack plugin is from WordPress itself. In your WordPress admin area, navigate to Plugins > Add New > Type “Patchstack” to search.

  1. Install and activate the plugin
  2. Go to Patchstack App and navigate to My Sites > yourdomain.com
  3. Click on the Settings from the submenu (image below)
  4. Copy the API key from there
  5. Go to your WordPress admin, navigate to Settings > Security and insert the API key there
