CHADA Store

Installation

WooFraudGuard ships as a standard WordPress plugin. You can install it from your CHADA Store account or by uploading the ZIP from your purchase confirmation email.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.4 or newer
  • WooCommerce 8.0 or newer
  • PHP 8.1 or newer
  • MySQL 5.7 / MariaDB 10.3 or newer (for the order-graph and chargeback tables)

HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) and the WooCommerce Cart/Checkout Blocks are both supported out of the box — no flag or compatibility shim required.

Install from your CHADA account

  1. Sign in to your CHADA Store account and open Downloads.
  2. Click Download .zip next to WooFraudGuard.
  3. In wp-admin, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin and upload the ZIP.
  4. Activate the plugin.

What happens on activation

The activator creates four MySQL tables (wfg_risk_scores, wfg_rule_hits, wfg_blocklist, wfg_linked_orders, wfg_chargebacks), seeds the default rule weights and thresholds, and schedules the daily license re-validation cron. None of these are populated with data — they are just ready for your first scored order.

What\’s next

  • Activate your license to unlock premium rules and integrations — see Activating your license.
  • Place a real test order to confirm scoring is wired up — see Placing a test order.
  • Tour the dashboard to learn what to look at day-one — see Dashboard at a glance.
