Hi! We are facing a few errors with the plugin:

```
1. WordPress blog posts do not update after making changes on Patreon posts. I thought they could be resynced? Correct me if I’m wrong.

2. We are unable to disconnect the plugin from our Patreon account and connect it again. We had to do this from Patreon’s account side.

```

Thanks

1 - If your site has lost connection to Patreon this can happen. Using the below steps can force the connection to refresh:

> [@bulb How to upgrade your Patreon WordPress to use API v2](https://www.patreondevelopers.com/t/how-to-upgrade-your-patreon-wordpress-to-use-api-v2/3249):
>
> You can follow the below simple steps to upgrade your Patreon WordPress installation to use API v2, which is required by many advanced features like post sync. 1 - Visit “Patreon settings” menu in your WP admin 2 - Click ‘Connection details’ button 3 - Clear all fields which you can clear, and click Save. 4 - Visit the below page that lists the apps you have at Patreon: 5 - Find the app for your website. You can confirm the app by checking the ‘Redirect uri’ value for the app, visible in …

Also, you can try going to WP admin → Patreon Settings → Post Sync and set up post sync by saving both forms. (Save + Done).

Then you can try a manual import to see if the manual import will work.

2 - Yes that sometimes happens and the solution are the steps I posted above.

‘Import next batch’ must be clicked until the plugin goes through all of your posts. So as long as there is a next batch, you must be clicking it. Its a manual import.

Hi! This is Guillermo, PansaSama’s developer. We already completed these steps (please check the ticket history). This doesn’t seem to be the solution to our case.

After completing the above steps, try restarting post sync setup by going to WP admin → Patreon settings → Post Sync and saving the form with the post sync set to on. This may restart the post sync.
