          License<\/h3>\n\n

          This plugin is licensed under the Apache-2.0<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

          From your WordPress Dashboard<\/h4>\n\n
            \n
          1. Go to Plugins \u2192 Add New<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
          2. Search for \u201cInterledger Web Monetization Integration\u201d<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
          3. Install and Activate<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

            Manual Installation<\/h4>\n\n
              \n
            1. Upload the plugin folder to \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>.<\/li>\n
            2. Go to Plugins<\/strong> and Activate<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
            3. Open Settings \u2192 Web Monetization<\/strong> to configure your wallet(s).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
              \n

              Do I need an external service?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              No. By default the plugin adds markup only. You\u2019ll configure your Interledger-compatible wallet address<\/strong> (often named a \u201cpayment pointer\u201d).<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Where do I configure wallets?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              Go to Settings \u2192 Web Monetization<\/strong>. You can set a site-wide wallet, allow authors to set their own, and override per post\/page.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              What is multi-wallet mode?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              When enabled, the plugin can output all configured wallets<\/strong> (e.g., site + author + post) or only the top-priority<\/strong> wallet, depending on your preference.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Can I exclude certain users from monetization?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              Yes. There\u2019s an option to exclude specific users<\/strong>; their content won\u2019t output monetization tags.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Does this work with custom post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              Yes. The plugin is designed to be extensible; custom post types that support meta boxes can be integrated.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Does the plugin track users or send data to third parties?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              No. There\u2019s no tracking<\/strong> and no external requests<\/strong> by default.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Is it translation-ready?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              Yes. A .pot<\/code> file is included.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
