    Hello,

    I am curious about the different licenses. The levels of license are for 1 year support, correct?

    If I don't require the support, Could I purchase once and use the plugin on multiple sites?

    Also, what is the license of the plugin itself under?

    Lastly, Is there a "no support" option available for download?

  2. There is not a "no support" option. The PHP of the plugin is GPL. However support, automatic updates and other elements are not GPL. The license key allows you to receive updates through our automatic update server and you won't receive automatic updates without it.

    If you purchase a Single Site License and use the key on multiple sites you run the risk of having your key deactivated for violating terms of service. Once your license key is deactivated you no longer have support site access.

    The license is for 1 year of support and updates. After 1 year you can renew your license at a substantial discount to continue receiving support and updates.

    Carl,

    Thanks for the quick response. :) Now I just have to contemplate which license I should get.

    Debating on the developer license, or just pointing clients to getting the single site on their own.

    Thanks again for your help, much appreciated.

  4. @faderlevels Developer vs. having clients purchase their own license is a common question web developers have. It's really up to you. Just keep in mind that if your client is no longer your client... they won't be able to access support to get help as only the license holder has support access. So it's up to you as far as letting them use your developer license or having them purchase their own. We have developers that do both.
