license query - test v real site

Permalink
I have just today come across concrete5 and am currentluy having a look round.
One problem i cannot find the answer to is:
If i buy themes/add-ons now i am uisng it via my test site mysite.com/testcms and then want to move the whole thing over to the live site mylivesite.com, will i lose all i have bought ?

Thanks :)

When you upload the site or move it from your staging location the new location it will continue to function. It could then indicate that add-ons are unlicensed, but that can be corrected by registering the site and adjusting the licence allocation under 'My Account' on concrete5.org. So you never loose or have to re-purchase for that particular site.

Hello and welcome,

You made a good choice picking C5.

Short answer - NO.

Connect your site to C5 through the dashboard and get the bits you want.

Assign those bits to /testcms, then when you want to change places release the license from /testcms and apply it to livesite.com.


Hope that helped.

No. Legally they are licensed on a per site basis, so as long as it's running in one live place actively at a time your fine. (Staging/development servers are an okay exception)

No. Technically you're probably not going to be "moving" your site at all when you launch, but rather just pointing a domain at it. This doesn't impact the site at all.

No. You can always release an add-on from one project page and assign it to another.

Thanks for info guys.
I will be moving the whole thing across to a completely new domain. but as lonjg as i can do this legally, then its fine.

I presume i add the new domain to my account here, then un-assign from old test domain, then reassign to new live domain.
Thanks again

if you copy/move the database for your site to a new location, it will simply connect to the same project page when you goto add functionality

Best wishes,
