License, logging, and the sync schedule live under Church Plugins → CP Sync (admin.php?page=cps_settings). You need an account that can manage options (an Administrator).
The screen opens on the Connect tab. The other tabs on every visit are Log, License, and Advanced. After you connect a church management system, Groups, Events, and (Planning Center only) Sermons appear when that sync is turned on. See API Connections.
Note (CP Sync 1.0.0): Settings moved under Church Plugins > CP Sync. The old Settings → CP Sync link no longer works. For a full list of 1.0.0 changes and known issues, see What’s New in CP Sync 1.0.0.
License
Open the License tab.
- License Key: paste your key.
- Activate: checks the key. After it succeeds, the key field locks and the button reads Deactivate.
- Enable beta updates: receive beta releases. Off until you turn it on.
Activate and Deactivate save on their own. Click Save all Settings after you change Enable beta updates.
Log
Open the Log tab.
- Enable Debug Mode: Enable or Disable. Disable is the default.
- Log File Content: the sync log. CP Sync writes to it only while Enable Debug Mode is set to Enable.
- Clear Log File: empties the log.
Click Save all Settings after you change Enable Debug Mode.
Sync Schedule
Open the Advanced tab.
- Update Interval: Hourly (the default), Daily, or Weekly.
- Pull now: starts a sync of every feed that is turned on. The tab shows Hard pull started successfully.
- Delete all data on uninstall: off until you turn it on. See Reset Tool.
- Danger Zone: reset install data. See Reset Tool.
Click Save all Settings after you change Update Interval or Delete all data on uninstall.
If you changed the sync interval before upgrading to 1.0.0 and the new interval does not take effect, set it to a different interval once, save, then set it back and save again. Interval changes you make on 1.0.0 work normally. See What’s New in CP Sync 1.0.0.
While a sync is running, the top of the page shows A sync is currently in progress and Cancel Sync.
Saving
Save all Settings sits at the bottom of every tab. It stays disabled until you change something, and the label changes to Saving… while the save runs. A failed save shows an error under the tabs. A successful save leaves you on the same page.
