Manage Your License

The addon uses an Easy Digital Downloads (EDD) license to deliver updates from wbcomdesigns.com. Activate your license so the plugin can check for and install new versions.

The license field is added to the Reign theme’s License Manager tab:

  1. Open Reign Options.
  2. Select the License Manager tab.
  3. Find the Reign WCFM Addon license section.
  1. Paste your license key into the License Key field.
  2. Save, then press Activate License.
  3. When activation succeeds, the status shows Active, along with the expiry date and how many of your allowed sites are activated.

Only administrators (users with manage_options) can activate or deactivate the license. Each activation and deactivation is protected by a nonce.

When a license is active, a Deactivate License button appears. Deactivating frees the activation so you can use the key on another site. This decreases your activated-site count.

The panel reports the state returned by the store:

  • Active - the key is valid; expiry and site count are shown.
  • Expired - the key expired; the expiry date is shown, with an admin notice.
  • Invalid - the key is not valid for this URL or product.
  • Inactive - no valid, activated key is present. An admin notice prompts you to activate.

Once a valid key is activated, the plugin registers with WordPress’s update system and offers new versions on the Plugins and Dashboard screens like any other plugin. The license check response is cached for 12 hours.

If updates are not appearing, confirm the license shows Active and that your site can reach wbcomdesigns.com. See Troubleshooting.
