How it works

From stored WordPress events to a small notification.

No separate dashboard is required for the free plugin.

01

Install

Add TrueProof from WordPress.org, activate it, and open Settings → TrueProof.

02

Choose sources

Select recent WooCommerce orders, approved reviews or comments already stored in WordPress.

03

Publish

Choose the position and timing, then show the notification on the front page or across the site.

From a real order to an anonymous notification.

See the setup sequence, then verify it on your own store.

Read the setup walkthrough
  1. 0:00–0:15: Install TrueProof from WordPress.org and open Settings → TrueProof. New installations keep the public widget disabled until you publish it.
  2. 0:15–0:25: Choose Real Data and WooCommerce orders. An eligible order needs processing or completed status within the selected look-back window.
  3. 0:25–0:35: Under Privacy, select Fully anonymous. Real events use “Someone” and an empty location. Upgraded installations retain their previous choice until you change it.
  4. 0:35–0:51: Check the eligible-event count, review public fields, enable notification bubbles and save. A nonzero count in this animation is illustrative; your store must supply its own eligible data.
  5. 0:51–1:04: Verify the events endpoint and storefront. The example “Someone purchased Demo Mug” illustrates the expected shape; it is not a live sales claim.
  6. 1:04–1:12: Install free and measure the effect on your own store. No conversion improvement is promised.
Data sources

Recent activity notifications, without invented claims.

Free covers the core WooCommerce use case. Pro adds EDD, registrations and selected-context rules.

WooCommerce orders

Free

Recent orders with processing or completed status.

Reviews & comments

Free

Recently approved reviews and comments. Pingbacks and trackbacks are excluded.

EDD sales

Pro

Recent completed Easy Digital Downloads sales.

Registrations

Pro

Recent new-user registrations from your WordPress site.

Display controls: bottom-left or bottom-right placement, accent colour, start delay, display time, gap, look-back window and maximum number of events.

Display rules: Free supports site-wide or front-page display. Pro limits notifications by supported contexts: front/posts page, blog posts, pages, WooCommerce products and archive views.

Two clear modes

Preview safely. Publish real data.

REAL DATA

Use recent activity from supported sources

Displays recent events from the sources enabled on your WordPress site.

For the live site
SIMULATION

Configure with sample data

Generates explicitly worded sample events so you can preview the widget before real activity exists. A visible “Demo” label is always shown on simulated notifications.

Setup preview
Product privacy

Notification-source records stay in WordPress.

TrueProof reads supported events already stored on your WordPress site. During normal use without licence activation, the plugin's own code makes no third-party requests.

Entering a licence key, periodic validation while it is active, or deactivation sends a built-in request containing the licence key, home URL and requested action to wptrueproof.com. The licensing service also receives standard network metadata. Notification-source records are not included in that request.

  • Visitors may see: “Someone” with no location by default, or a name/location only if the site owner deliberately selects that option, plus activity and relative time.
  • Built-in sources do not include: email-shaped name values, full addresses or order totals.
  • Performance: events are cached for three minutes and served through the WordPress REST API using vanilla JavaScript.
  • Privacy control: fully anonymous, shortened-name and full-name modes are available; email-shaped name values are always suppressed.

Choose by workflow

Keep WooCommerce free. Add Pro for a specific job.

Bring EDD purchases or WordPress signups into your same-site activity feed, choose supported page types, and use one licence across client sites.

Digital-download store

Use completed Easy Digital Downloads orders as the activity source. TrueProof shows a generic purchase action, not the download title or order value.

Read the EDD setup and limitations

Registration activity

Show recent WordPress registrations. This is a signup event, not proof of a paid membership or a verified customer; review spam registrations before publishing.

Compare supported sources

Product-page placement

Use selected-context rules to show notifications on WooCommerce product pages rather than across every page. Rules are page-type based, not URL, visitor or per-product event matching.

Check the available rules

Client-site rollout

Pro covers up to five active site URLs; Agency raises the allowance to 999. Configure and verify each site independently — there is no hosted fleet dashboard.

Frequently asked questions

Does TrueProof show sample data?

Only in Simulation Mode, which is intended for configuration and preview. A visible “Demo” label is always shown on simulated notifications. Real Data Mode displays recent events from the sources enabled on your site.

What does the free plugin support?

WooCommerce orders with processing or completed status, approved comments and reviews, Real Data and Simulation modes, core appearance and timing controls, and site-wide or front-page display.

What does Pro add?

Completed Easy Digital Downloads sales, new-user registrations, selected-context display rules, activation on up to five sites, and priority email support during the paid licence period.

Does the plugin send notification-source data elsewhere?

During normal use without licence activation, the plugin's own code makes no third-party requests. Entering a licence key, periodic validation while it is active, or deactivation sends a built-in request containing the licence key, home URL and requested action to wptrueproof.com. Standard network metadata is also received by the licensing service. Notification-source records are not included in the request.

What if no events appear in Real Data Mode?

Check the selected source, event status, look-back window and display rule. Events are cached for three minutes. The troubleshooting guide has a complete checklist.

How does annual billing work?

Pro is €49 billed annually and renews automatically until cancelled. Applicable EU VAT may be added at checkout. Email support before the next billing date to stop renewal; the original paid purchase has a 14-day refund period.
