Demo Mode
Paymery includes a built-in Demo Mode designed for live preview environments such as Envato demos or public product showcases. Demo Mode helps protect the demo environment from permanent changes and keeps the demo usable for all visitors.
Where to Enable Demo Mode
Demo Mode can be enabled or disabled from the admin panel:
- Navigate to Admin → Settings
- Locate the Demo Mode option
- Enable or disable it as needed
What Demo Mode Does
When Demo Mode is enabled, the system applies restrictions suitable for a demo environment, such as:
- Preloaded demo (seeded) data
- Protection against destructive actions (where applicable)
- Safe testing of features without affecting real data
Demo Data Reset
Demo Mode supports resetting demo data to its original state. This ensures the demo remains clean and usable for new visitors.
Demo reset behavior may rely on scheduled tasks. If automated resets are used, make sure the scheduler is running (see Cron & Queue).
Production Safety
Demo Mode is intended for demo environments only. It does not affect production installations unless explicitly enabled by the admin.
Recommended Usage
- Use a separate domain or subdomain for demos (example: demo.yoursite.com).
- Enable Demo Mode only on demo environments.
- Do not enable Demo Mode on real installations.
