Frequently asked questions

Honest answers to the questions buyers ask before clicking buy.

Does Google get hurt if I leave it on?

Maintenance mode returns a 503 with Retry-After, which is the correct way to tell crawlers "come back later". Donu2019t leave coming-soon mode (200 OK) live for more than a few weeks.

Does it conflict with caching plugins?

No. We tested with LiteSpeed Cache and WP Rocket on getbdshield.com itself. Dynamic features bypass page cache where required; static assets are cache-friendly.

What happens when my license expires?

The plugin keeps working with whatever it last had. You stop receiving updates and premium features get gated until you renew.

Whatu2019s the refund policy?

30-day refund, no questions asked. Email support@getbdshield.com from the address you bought with.

How much performance overhead does it add?

Negligible on every page load. Heavy operations (scans, backups, AI generation) run on cron, not on visitor requests.

Which WordPress and PHP versions are supported?

WordPress 6.0+ and PHP 8.0+. We test on the same stack getbdshield.com runs on (PHP 8.3, WP latest).

Does it work on multisite?

Yes, network-activate or per-site activate. Each subsite counts as one license seat.

questions before you buy

The buy-time questions.

Six honest answers to the things buyers usually ask before they click checkout.

How does the license actually activate?

After checkout, your license key emails to you immediately. Install the plugin, paste the key in the plugin's License tab once per site, click Activate. From that point on, updates flow through the WordPress updates screen like any other plugin — no per-update copy/paste.

What does the 30-day refund actually cover?

Full refund, no forms, no "tell us why." Email hello@getbdshield.com within 30 days of purchase and we issue the refund the same business day.

What happens when my license expires?

The plugin keeps working with every feature active. You stop getting updates and support until you renew. We never disable features to pressure renewal.

Does this conflict with other plugins in the same category?

For security/firewall plugins specifically: yes — running two firewalls causes duplicate rules and lockouts. Disable any other plugin in the same category before activating. For non-overlapping categories (backup + speed, for example), no conflict.

Who replies if I open a support ticket?

Our team. There's no tier-1 outsource — tickets land with the engineers who wrote the plugin you're asking about. Most replies inside one business day.

Can I use it across client sites if I'm an agency?

Yes — Agency-tier licenses cover up to 25 sites, including clients. You stay the license holder; clients don't need accounts on getbdshield.com.
