This plugin allows you to manage, distribute and validate licenses for your software and programs that your sell or simple just require a license for. This plugin is super easy to use and comes with a simple API that allows you to create a license on the fly using one simple function.

Features:

  • Secure license validation using the HTTP/HTTPS API which returns JSON for cross platform use (Software, Scripts, Plugins, Themes, Apps).
  • Create a license using WordPress admin or use the API to create a license on the fly.
  • Ability to suspend a license.
  • Ability to add an expiration for a license (perfect for 30 day trials).

How to use

To validate a license you will use the HTTP/HTTPS API. Make a call to

http://yourwebsite.com/license-validation/license-key-here

The return of the API will present JSON object containing information about the license.

If the license is valid, the response will look like below

{"isValid": true}

If the license is invalid, expired or suspended the following response will be presented

{"isValid":false,"message":"Message-why-the-license-failed"}

Full documentation is coming soon. The plugin will be updated with links shortly when the documentation is finished. Until then you can contact, justin@justin-greer.com questions or concerns.
