Free add-on license owner

Permalink 3 users found helpful
Hi Folks
How do I know which user assigns my free add-on license? For paid add-on I can see them into the transaction page. But for free add-on, there is no way to find that.

Hi Rony,

They don't show up on Transactions but they do show up under the Transaction submenu "licenses".
The only time I've lost track of who's license was added was when the package was manually uploaded

Hi Adrian
I think the licenses link only show the add-on that I've added for future use or purchased previously. It doesn't show the licenses for my own add-on. Let me know if I'm wrong.

Rony, you are right.

I have thought about this also, but come to realize it's not feasible to list all sites using free add-ons since they tend to be many (if you have a popular add-on).

Consider Designer Content which probably has 30.000+ installs - how would that be presented to Jordan?

One of my add-ons has 1000+ installs (not to mention the manual installs) and I would be exhausted just browsing through all those sites.

You can, however, go to your add-on page and click on the link 'Used On Sites' to find out which users has explicitly made it public they are using your add-on (but I guess that will only cover about 5-10% of the actual use).

Hmm, so I was thinking right. There no way to know that. And you are right, its very difficult to list about 30000+ users. Thanks for clarifications.

I misunderstood your question Rony.
I needed a paradigm shift... I read your question as a consumer instead of a developer.
Oops
In addition to free add-ons going through the check-out procedure, I've been able to download an archive copy for manual installation instead. I don't know how that could ever be tracked
