Are there any other methods of selling plugins, with this plugin managing licencing/updates, than WooCommerce?
]]>Hello greetings David. I have recently been trying to release new updates to my plugin, however, I am getting a recurring error when I load the zip.
I have launched several versions with different names but each time it loads I am getting this error
And when I try to load it again, I get this following warning, which I imagine was because it would be stored in a database or something like that, so that version was loaded.
The name of the zip is visualinmueble-5.9.0-beta24.zip
Thank you very much, I hope you can help me. Greetings David
]]>I would like to know if I can upload my files to Google drive and manage them from this plugin, i.e. store externally but manage from the plugin, thanks in advance
]]>First of all, fantastic plugin!
Currently when I try to upload a theme, I get the following error: The file could not be uploaded; the error code was: The zip file was not valid; it needs to contain a valid .php plugin file (see:?https://codex.www.ads-software.com/File_Header#Plugin_File_Header_Example)
Is there any workaround to support themes as well?
]]>No matter how I try and organise the zip file, I always seem to get this error: The file could not be uploaded; the error code was: The zip file was not valid; it needs to contain a single top-level directory with name exactly equal to the plugin slug (plugin-name). The additional entry encountered was: plugin-name
I’m making sure that the zip contains a single top-level directory with the exact name as stated in the error but it doesn’t seem to make any difference. Where am I going here?
]]>Hello, please could you check if this plugin combined with Simba Plugin Manager – Updater Class 1.8.16 reads correctly the readme.txt file inside plugin.zip? because with “pure” class 4.13 from yahnest a readme.txt file look like this
but with Simba looks like this (some tabs missing + no correct formatted lines + truncate lines at some point)
thank you
]]>Hello, I installed this plugin and its bother here
https://github.com/DavidAnderson684/simba-plugin-manager-updater
but it is not clear to me how I can show on my plugin a login/enter credential form
]]>Hello anderson, what would be your recommendation for the best way to migrate from one license server to another.
This is the context:
Initially the license server was for example serverA.domain.com and now I want the new versions of the plugin to upload them to serverB.domain.com.
On serverA.domain.com I released an update that changed the. $mothership(Updraft_Manager_Updater_1_8 constructor parameter) now pointing to serverB.domain.com.
Clients upgraded to the new version which has the new mothership serverB.domain.com
I started uploading the new versions of the plugin to serverB.domain.com and created the users manually that I had added when the license server was serverA.domain.com .
However, clients cannot update, but if the new updates appear, for example, in a client I have this message “A new version of Visual Inmueble is available. See the details of version 7.5.11. Automatic updating is not available for this plugin.”
]]>From a user profile a plugin was created and several version zips were added to it. Then you log in with another user and you don’t see the packages you uploaded. How can I make a user see the plugins of other admin users.
thanks greetings
]]>A typical way to compress a folder on MacOS is to right-click the folder and select “compress.” However, uploading that zip file (via the drag&drop interface) results in the following error message:
The zip file was not valid; it needs to contain a single top-level directory with name exactly equal to the plugin slug (ml-slider-pro). The additional entry encountered was: __MACOSX
It must be some sort of hidden file as there’s nothing with that filename anywhere to be found (even with hidden files enabled).
What I did instead, that worked, is via the terminal:
zip -r ml-slider-pro.2.18.0.zip ml-slider-pro
I’m fine with the command line, but wanted to report the issue in case you wanted to support the former too.
]]>Hello!
I bought your https://www.simbahosting.co.uk/s3/product/plugin-updates-licensing-and-renewals-manager-woocommerce-connector/ plugin, but it doesn’t create licenses after the purchase.
I checked the code and saw a problem here woocommerce_payment_complete.
There is a global $updraft_manager variable there; and it is empty, so the process doesn’t go on.
Can you help with that?
wp 5.2
wc 3.7
php 7.2
Simba Plugin Updates Manager is installed and activated, wc
I will attach screenshots below.
hello and thanks for the plugins you develop.
I’m trying to understand if this is useful for me.
what I would like to do is
1 put all the plugins I own in a google cloud bucket / amazon bucket
2 the user or my client or me on the sites I support, I install this “updater”
3 this updater checks ALL the plugins that are installed on the site and checks if they are present in the bucket.
4 If the plugins are present, download and update them.
5 BONUS: I should insert some security check (a license key or similar to prevent anyone from activating this updater)
what did you develop do and can do these things? or you could help me understand how to make it happen.
thank you.
]]>I’ve created a plugin entry and uploaded a zip file for v1.0.0
Now I’m trying to upload new version 1.0.1 and getting this message: “A .zip with this filename already exists. Please use a unique filename.”
Does not matter if in a top level Upload Zip or in the plugin Manage Zips interface.
Is it required to delete old one first?
PS: (maybe it can help) I have this plugin installed on the same server where I have added it to download.

I had a look at it and it looks like that in latest versions this is fixed. I recommend you to delete the old version and instal the new one via composer.
If you have a plugin repo on github I can make a PR.
]]>Hi,
do you provide an API interface for creating new License keys?
Hi David,
it would be nice, if it where possible to have the following options:
1. On admin options a textarea to modify the plugins description instead of a single text field.
2. On admin options a textarea to extend the .json information with a changelog section.
3. On amin options a textarea to extend the .json information with a installation option.
4. The option to set imagelinks to the .json file for plugin information popup.
Is this possible, or can i modify the .json file manualy for some of these options?
Thanks and regards
Patrick

Hey. I installed this plugin to test it out, but I can’t find where the license manager is. The description says:
Manage user licences – create, renew and delete licence entitlements for non-free plugins
Where is this page located?
Thank you.
