Thanks for downloading Reach!

Note: The Reach Theme is no longer supported by WP Charitable. This page will remain online for those who still want to download it and install it.

The Reach Child Theme

The best way to use Reach is with its child theme:

Why do we recommend using a child theme?

When you use the child theme, you can make changes to your site without touching the Reach files. That means you can upgrade to future versions of Reach without worrying about losing your changes. Save yourself the time down the track: use the child theme from the start.

If you aren’t familiar with child theme in WordPress or want to refresh your memory when using Reach, find out more about using the child theme in our documentation.

Installing Reach

Once Reach has downloaded to your computer and you are ready to install it, you must first upload the theme files and then activate the theme itself. There are two options for uploading the theme files:

  • FTP Upload: Using your FTP program, upload the un-zipped theme folder into the /wp-content/themes/ folder on your server.
  • WordPress Upload: From the WordPress Admin Dashboard, navigate to Appearance > Add New Themes > Upload. Go to browse, and select the zipped theme folder. Click Install Now and the theme will be uploaded and installed.

We strongly recommend that you upload both the Reach and Reach child themes, following the steps above for both themes.

Once you have uploaded the themes, go to Appearance > Themes and activate the Reach child theme.

automation update

⚡ Visual Automation Builder: Drag and Drop With No Code!

Charitable Automation Connect 2.3.0 introduces the Visual Automation Builder, a full-screen canvas that lays each automation out as a flow of connected cards: a trigger, optional conditions, and a list of actions that run in order.

🧩 Many actions, one trigger: Tag a donor, send an email, add a note, and fire a webhook from a single event, dragged into any order.

✉️ Act inside Charitable: New Send Email, Tag Donor, and Add Donor Note actions run with no external service required.

🔤 Merge tags: Personalize emails and notes with live fields like {first_name}, {total}, and {campaign_name}.

🔁 Apply to existing donors: Run Tag Donor and Add Donor Note against the donors you already have.

🖥️ Canvas or Simple: Switch views anytime, and automations built before 2.3.0 keep working unchanged.

recurring donations updated

💳 Introducing Card Updates: Fix Expired Cards Without Losing Subscriptions!

newExpired or updated credit cards are one of the biggest silent leaks in recurring fundraising. With Card Updates in the Recurring Donations extension, donors can now refresh their payment details directly—keeping their subscription, schedule, and giving history completely intact.

No canceled plans, no lost history, and zero administrative headache for your team.

What’s New:

⚡ 30-Second Self-Service: Donors get a dedicated “Update Card” button in their dashboard that opens Stripe’s secure, PCI-compliant Customer Portal to update card details instantly.

🔒 Scoped & Safe Access: Scoped exclusively to card updates by default, donors can’t accidentally cancel or alter their plans from inside the portal, keeping your webhooks and data in sync.

🤝 Admin-Assisted Support: Helping a donor on the phone? Open their secure Stripe portal in one click from your admin screen or generate a single-use update link to email them.

📋 Automatic Audit Trail: Every payment method update is recorded automatically with a timestamp in both system-wide logs and the individual donor’s profile.

Ready to protect your recurring revenue? Get the Plus or Pro plan and update Recurring Donations to 2.3.0+ and enable “Update Payment Method” under your Settings today!
