Installing via WordPress repository

Let’s set up the Patchstack plugin through WordPress!
First, log in to your WordPress.
Navigate to “Plugins” from the admin menu and click “Add New” from the top.

  1. On the right side you see the “Search plugins…” search box.
  2. Type “Patchstack” to search box
  3. Click on “Install Now” button
  4. Click “Activate”

You are now taken to the Patchstack plugin’s setup screen.
To connect the plugin with Patchstack App, you need to enter your site API key into the plugin.

You can find API key in the Patchstack App, when you navigate to My Sites > yourdomain.com > Settings.

See image below:

That API key needs to be pasted to your WordPress plugin API key field.
After that, click “Activate” in WordPress plugin.

Congratulations - Patchstack is now up and running on your site!
If you want to have your site protected by our vPatches and firewall, you can click on Activate for $5 on the App button. You will be directed to set up billing to enable the Patchstack protection.
