Go to **Plugins > Add New** in your WordPress dashboard. 2. Search for "Purchase Redirect for WooCommerce". 3. Click **Install Now** and then **Activate**. 4. Navigate to the new "Redirect for WooCommerce" menu in your sidebar to begin. == Frequently Asked Questions == = How do I change the redirect link? = Navigate to the **Redirect for WooCommerce** settings page in your WordPress admin panel and update the "Redirect Link" field. = What are temporary links? = Temporary links are unique tokens appended to the redirect URL for a specific purchase. They expire after 2 days, preventing buyers from bookmarking or sharing a redirect path you want to keep private. = Will caching break my redirects? = Regular redirects work fine with standard caching. If you use temporary links, exclude that specific path from your cache settings (e.g., WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache). = What happens if a payment fails? = The redirect only triggers upon successful payment completion. If a payment is pending or failed, the user remains on the standard WooCommerce checkout page. = What PHP version is required? = PHP 7.4 or higher is required. PHP 8.x is fully supported and recommended. == Support == For community support, please visit our [Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/purchase-redirect-for-woocommerce/).
