Woocommerce linked licensing system for your plugins

So how do you do that?

fromAbsolutePath but not on master branch. You'll have to do as orange suggested and browse from the appData directory using getParentDirectory, getFolder, and getChildFile.

@lindon

Why don't you put the validation key/flag...etc. inside the "C:/Users/joeBlo/AppData/Roaming/myCo/Validation Folder" for example?

So this folder will be a common folder for all software, even with or without Validation App. For example;

 const validationFolder  = FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.AppData).getParentDirectory().createDirectory("Validation Folder");

because its not even commonly "rooted" on MacOS...

Yes AppData is common on both Win and Mac. This works here.

[Lindon]

@orange --er no its not. I t will be common on a single Mac but not between more than one Mac - well that's my understanding anyway.

Every query requires processing resources, the less queries you make the better.

Yes it's obvious. I just thought that this kind of api required backend process can't work with a standard wordpress website and AWS or something like that professional server system needed. So is this system in a standard hosting?

@orange @d-healey Which hosting plan are you using?

I use cheapo shared hosting, but I'm looking to switch to a VPS - not related to licensing, I just want a faster webstore for my customers, the current one has always been a little slower to load pages than I'd like.

Yes, no AWS here.

@orange @d-healey Which hosting plan are you using?

Recently, I had to re-design my website compeltely from scratch. Before, it was struggling with hosting, theme, images and design mistakes. If you want speed, the performance is the sum of everything. Hosting, theme, images, your page design style...etc. all of them are affecting the performance.

• For hosting, I am using Kinsta, it's exclusively a Wordpress optimized, pretty fast system, I highly recommend it.

• For theme, I am using Kadence. I've tried tons of themes before, but definately this one is the best, well woocommerce optimized, pretty fast theme. It also has great addons like Conversions, Kadence Blocks (Gutenberg block builder)...

• For page design, definitely go with Gutenberg (with Kadence Blocks). I think the page builders (like Divi, Elementor...etc.) will die soon, because Gutenberg (which is designed by Wordpress) is much more faster, getting better day by day, and it is the future of Wordpress.

• One more thing is the image optimization. Shortpixel wordpress plugin is the one to go. It not only optimizes pictures, it also supports WebP image format which was developed by Google and it is the future of the web also. Recently Wordpress added WebP support. This image format supports transparent images with much more less file size. Not all of the browsers support it for now, but Shortpixel handles it with showing optimized jpg files to non-supported browsers.

If you take care all of the details, there is no need to do any action or no need to worry about using Woocommerce License Manager API in your website.

@orange One question,

How do you handle the serial numbers in Woocommerce License Manager plugin? Do you upload serials before purchase, or any ideas?

[Dan Korneff]

@Steve-Mohican

• Automatic license creation with the purchase

@orange One question,

Both ways are possible. Like @dustbro said, I am using automatic license creation, it's very handy and you don't have to worry about if the serials are running out or not. Instead of uploading thousands of serials, also automatic license way makes your database more clean.
