Need help?

If you have any feature requests, need more hooks, or maybe have even found a bug, please let us know in the support forum or e-mail us at support@wpexperts.io. We look forward to hearing from you!

You can also check out the documentation pages, as they contain the most essential information on what the plugin can do for you.

Important

The plugin will create two files inside the wp-content/uploads/lmfwc-files folder. These files (defuse.txt and secret.txt) contain cryptographic secrets which are automatically generated if they don’t exist. These cryptographic secrets are used to encrypt, decrypt and hash your license keys. Once they are generated please back them up somewhere safe. In case you lose these two files your encrypted license keys inside the database will remain forever lost!

If you would like to contribute to any of these libraries in these languages (Node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby, .NET, C, C#, C++, and Golang), please visit our library page for more details.

Note

Few features like user license display on account page and license certification are fork from Digital License Manager plugin by Darko Gjorgjijoski and we have changed the code according to our need.

Was it so difficult to add a field in the api responses: valid_license? true, false.

The plugin owner should be ashamed of themselves. They are stealing and copying over features from other plugins, selling them within their overpriced pro version. When installing the plugin and the pro version, you’re facing a lot of PHP issues and errors. I can not understand why so many people are still using this plugin. There are better solutions out there.

I have problems with version 3.0.6, but I managed to overcome them. By investigating plugin files I found where the bug lies and have sent my suggestions to plugin developers in hope they will incorporate it in the next version. Honestly I´m dissapointed today, because in 3.0.7 version the bug still persists, obviously my suggestions were not implemented. Pity, I had to install previous version with my modifications, luckily I have backed it up before update.Other than that the plugin is working as it should, sending keys after order is completed, generate keys, etc.

It is hard to choose the reason for this 5-star rating because not only the software does what is expected and more, but the developer has demonstrated being astounding in both support and development (the product has been coded in an excellent way).Hard to find a gem such as this
