Turn WordPress into a
Stunning Cam Site

The plugin zip is ~37MB which exceeds PHP's default upload limit. SSH into your server and add these lines to your php.ini file:

upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300

Then restart Apache: systemctl restart apache2

Alternative: Install via SSH by uploading the zip and unzipping directly into the plugins folder.

Your .htaccess file is missing or WordPress permalinks aren't configured. SSH into your server and run:

cat > /var/www/html/.htaccess << 'EOF'
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
EOF

chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html/.htaccess
wp rewrite structure '/%postname%/' --allow-root --path=/var/www/html
wp rewrite flush --allow-root --path=/var/www/html

Also ensure mod_rewrite is enabled: a2enmod rewrite && systemctl restart apache2

You need to install both the theme and the plugin. The theme provides the HTML shell, and the plugin handles all the logic. Go to Appearance → Themes and make sure "EddyTheDog" is activated.

File permissions are incorrect. Fix with:

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html
find /var/www/html -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find /var/www/html -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

Check in order: 1) Is the theme activated? 2) Is the plugin activated? 3) Is the white label domain set correctly in settings? 4) Can your server reach the Chaturbate API? Test with: curl https://chaturbate.com/api/public/affiliates/onlinerooms/?limit=1

This is by design. External links (model chat, video embeds) are locked until a valid license is activated. Enter your license code in WordPress Admin → EddyTheDog → License section.

Yes! License codes are self-validating — they work on unlimited domains with no external server checks.

Once your domain DNS is pointing to the server:

certbot --apache -d yourdomain.com -d www.yourdomain.com

# Update WordPress URLs
wp option update siteurl 'https://yourdomain.com' --allow-root --path=/var/www/html
wp option update home 'https://yourdomain.com' --allow-root --path=/var/www/html

EddyTheDog includes its own OG/Twitter meta tags. If you also run Yoast or Rank Math, you may get duplicate tags. Recommendation: disable the SEO plugin's meta output or deactivate it — EddyTheDog handles SEO natively.
