No! The license validation part for your distributed plugins and themes is not part of this plugin. Therefore please take a look into the Software License Manager documentation.

Reviews

Works like a charm!

Prayoga Teguh June 29, 2018

Whoever using this plugin and seems it don’t work, please make sure the “downloadable” option in product is checked. Also in the plugin setting, input the creation key (not using the activation key). I use the latest WordPress, Woocommerce and Software License Manager, and every is work as it should.

Variable Product Support

borisng May 16, 2017 1 reply

hi guys, i’ve been testing your plugin for now it what i see is very interresting but i have a question, do you have support for variable downloads ? because if i create a woocommerce product variation i dont see the licencing options?

Useful integration plugin

Cristi S. September 3, 2016

You and the guy from SLM allowed me to do in a few minutes what I found as a road stopper at Shopify. Well done, guys, and kuddos for your work. I’ve been a bit confused what the two setting options mean, but I suppose I got lucky applying the best guess and …it worked! To see actual license keys automatically generated in my customer orders was trully great. Please provide some more documentation about your settings and all will be great.
