Charitable 1.3.0 – Easy Digital Downloads Connect

Charitable Easy Digital Downloads Connect is a WordPress plugin that creates a smooth bridge between Charitable and Easy Digital Downloads. It helps you manage charitable donations and digital product sales from a single WordPress workflow. Instead of juggling separate systems, you can connect fundraising actions with shopping activity in a way that keeps your admin process organized and your checkout journey consistent. This makes it easier to move supporters from giving to purchasing while maintaining a clean user experience.

Built for teams using Charitable, EDD, and a WordPress admin setup (with themes and page builders like Elementor, if you use them), it focuses on reducing friction in the donations-to-purchases path—so more visitors can follow through.
