👏 Acknowledgements

This plugin was early fork of License Manager for WooCommerce by Drazen Bebic and WPExperts. However, nowadays, the code has been completely rewritten in order to modernize it and provide better support, stability and new features.

Other acknowledgments: Micromodal, Tom-Select, Flatpickr, defuse/PHP-Encryption, spipu/html2pdf, tecnickcom/tcpdf, 10quality/wp-query-builder, ignitekit/wp-notices.

Props to @pondermatic for contributing to our plugin.

⚠️ Important Note

The plugin will create wp-content/uploads/dlm-files directory which stores the cryptographic secrets that are required to decrypt the licenses. If you lose this file, you will lose your license keys as well. Make sure you backup those files!

Does it work without WooCommerce?

Yes it does.

How License Activations work?

The License activations are stored as a separate database entries and not using a counter. This allows easier management of License Activation per device/installation/etc.
