## FAQ

### I installed the plugin but it does not work

This plugin will only function with the [OceanWP](https://oceanwp.org/) theme.

### Is Ocean Extra free?

Ocean Extra is a 100% free WordPress plugin on full power mode and without any limitations
on its features.
 Some of the additional and premium features are controled through
the OceanWP Panel which is an Ocean Extra feature, but there is no premium version
of the Ocean Extra plugin itself.

### Do I need to get the premium license to import freemium demos?

Some features or content parts have been created using [Ocean premium extensions](https://oceanwp.org/core-extensions-bundle/).

Unless you have a premium license, those features or content parts will not be displayed
or enabled on your website.

However, you can still import any of the freemium Ocean demos / website templates
and recreate those features using any other plugin of your choice.

### Do you use third-party premium plugins in your demos?

No. Both freemium and premium Ocean demos / website templates make use only of the
free version of third-party plugins.

### Where can I get support?

You can post your questions on the [plugin support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/)
or the [OceanWP support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/oceanwp/) which
is mostly used by all our users.
 If you have a premium license, you can also submit
a [customer support ticket](https://oceanwp.org/support/).

### How do I know it’s safe to update the plugin?

We do our best to test all changes before the official release. However, we will
never be able to replicate all website conditions.
 No matter what plugins you are
running, it’s always recommended to test an update on a staging or test environment.

You can also check [Support Notes and User Feedback](https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/776-known-bugs-issues)
before updating your plugin.

### Where can I report problems or bugs?

You can report problems on [this support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ocean-extra/)
or on [GitHub](https://github.com/oceanwp/ocean-extra/issues).

Recommend not to use. This is a lot of issue causing theme. Issue with jQuery caused
bad written theme code. Do not trust this. Poor support which do not resolve issue,
they say it is your mistake and they do not care. Waste of time you do not want..
Theme is really slow and not flexible. Issue with apple devices. Scammers.

A few days ago all 30 of my sites that use the ocean extra plugin went down. They
all said: “There has been a critical error on this website” – had a terrible time
explaining to my clients what went wrong… Is there any sign of this plugin being
more secure in the future? or should I just scrap it, I love the ocean wp theme 
and this gives it some extra functionality that I need but this last issue was a
huge red flag… not sure what to do now as I am worried about the next big crash…
