Need help?

If you have any feature requests, need more hooks, or have even found a bug related to your software license, serial key, or key manager, please let us know in the support forum or e-mail us at support@wpexperts.io.

You can also check out the documentation, which contains the most essential information on what the plugin can do to manage your software license, serial key, and complete key manager workflow.

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.
