Frequently Asked Questions
Subscriptions include 20 downloads per day. The plugin uses up to 15 of them, leaving 5 available if you want to download something directly from pillbanana.com.
The plugin probably updated on its own and used up your daily quota. You always have 5 downloads left from the site. If you have the plugin on multiple sites, the updates are distributed automatically.
You can: (1) update some ZIP files manually (1 credit per product) or (2) if you have more than ~20 sites, use a second subscription and alternate between them. It also helps to check the Update changelog.
Update Manually
Would you rather upload the ZIP file yourself? WordPress will replace the previous version. You don't need to deactivate or delete it first.
- Download the new version from Pillbanana.
- In WordPress: Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin (or Appearance → Themes → Add → Upload Theme).
- Select the ZIP file and install it.
- When it says it's already installed, select Replace the current one with the uploaded one.
- Done: Settings are retained, and if it was active, it remains active.
