Installation

Requirement Minimum
WordPress 6.9 or later
PHP 8.2 or later

Ignition Crowdfunding works with any standard WordPress hosting environment that meets these requirements.

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
  2. Choose the plugin’s .zip file and click Install Now.
  3. Click Activate.

When the plugin activates, it automatically:

  • Registers the Campaign Backer user role.
  • Grants campaign management capabilities to the Administrator role.
  • Creates the igcf_campaign custom post type and custom statuses.

Next, head to Quick Start to configure your pages and create your first campaign.

Ignition Crowdfunding is fully multisite-compatible. Network-activate it to enable crowdfunding on every site, or activate it per site — either way, each site runs its own independent platform and sets itself up automatically on its first visit. See Multisite for activation options, what is isolated per site, and cleanup behavior.
