Getting copy protection to work...
- 
 Upon just getting an indie license of HISE (yay!) I'm now on the journey to get copy protection into my first plugin... 
 Right away I notice the snippet of server side code provided here
 https://docs.hise.dev/glossary/copy-protection.html
 is kind of incomplete and missing stuff at the beginning. Before I try to figure out everything myself, has anyone else managed the process and is willing to share how?

 Check out which is basically the server side of this system. If you don't want to roll your own server that should get you started. Otherwise I think @Dan-Korneff has spent a few hours setting up his own server to talk to so he might also have some insights.

 @Christoph-Hart said in Getting copy protection to work...: spent a few hours setting up his own server @Christoph-Hart I think you meant a few months  
 @Morphoice It was no trivial task and took quite a bit of time to design and setup. In the end, I made a fully wordpress integrated license manager that uses the unlocker.
 I'm not sure how much I can share on how to do it cause it involves many tasks that are beyond the scope if HISE, but I suggest starting with the basics.
 If you need something that works and you don't want to deal with bug fixes and webserver security concerns, I'd 100% go with HISE Activate.
 If you want to DIY a solution, use a preexisting License Manager available for your platform, and then creating a script to send the end user their encrypted license file.
 I'll answer any questions you have.

 @Dan-Korneff I'm good with php and web stuff, that shouldn't be a problem given I know what needs to be done, the documentation is incomplete... the plugin side is where I have absolutely no clue

 @Morphoice As @Dan-Korneff says an existing license manager with your own endpoint for license file encryption is a good starting point. @Christoph-Hart posted this php snippet a while ago which is easy to get you on track seeing you're comfortable with php
