When your Pro-upgrade expires, it DISABLES pro.

    When purchasing Pro you are purchasing a license for single/multi-site use of the plugin and with that, according to their documentation, you get 1 year of updates included.

    What they don’t tell you is that at the end of that year, they will DISABLE the plugin as well!

    This is like buying Windows XP when it came out and getting updates/patches until they EOL the software…. and then instead of being able to continue to use the copy of Windows XP that you PURCHASED, but without updates, they DISABLE IT AND LOCK DOWN YOUR COMPUTER!

    No notice that you’re about to expire or that you should not upgrade when you get the notification, it just disables pro and your site suddenly becomes useless with NO WARNING!

    I posted a follow-up when I changed the topic to resolved, but apparently they are different submission processes.

    The developer contacted me via email within an hour and explained to me that what happened was not how the plugin was designed to work (a bug). He sent me a working pro-version and is checking into the issue I had.

    We ended up subscribing for another year because it’s a fantastic plugin. My heat was because it appeared to have done what I consider unacceptable… i.e., the silent down-grade. It had, but not by intent and the developer is making sure it doesn’t happen to others.

    Good service. Thanks!
