Not necessarily, and it's worth understanding why before you rely on it for anything important. When enabled, WPDD writes a small ownership tag into one of GoCardless's metadata slots on each subscription it creates — a JSON blob recording the originating WordPress entry ID and form ID, which is what powers the "Edit form" shortcut in the subscriptions list. That tag is just a stored pointer; GoCardless has no idea that entry IDs are WordPress-specific or that they can be reassigned. If you ever restore a database backup taken from a different point in time, or merge/import entries from another site, WordPress can end up reusing an entry ID that a live GoCardless subscription's metadata still references — at which point the "Edit form" link (and anything else trusting that pointer) will confidently take you to the wrong entry. The webhook processing pipeline doesn't depend on this metadata at all — it always matches by mandate/payment/billing-request ID against entry meta — so functionality isn't at risk, only this one convenience link. Treat it as a UI shortcut, not a durable source of truth, especially on any site with a history of database restores or migrations.
