WHY?
Hi @chucky,
You've got the activation key via email or in your account page. You just need to insert the key in the "Activation Key" section and activate it. If you install the add-on on the real domain you should insert the activation key so as to get updates. In other words, the activation is only needed to get updates.
But this is asking me to pay again, like a subscription?
I didn't sign up for a yearly subscription, in fact, I would never have used wpforo if I thought those necessary features were being charged yearly.
I feel scammed by this and am pretty angry.
wpForo is a free WordPress plugin, it doesn't have Pro version and it'll always be free.
Here you can see the wpForo plugin without any customizations and add-ons: https://wpforo.com/community/
Please visit the demo website and check the free version of the wpForo plugin.
We also develop paid add-ons (separate plugins) for wpForo, they add some extra functions and features to your forum. The license you've bought allows you to get one year free upgrades to all future releases After one year you should renew your license to get product updates. However, you’ll still be able to use the version you have for an unlimited time.
Like I said I would not have used ( and wasted MY valuable time) wpforo if these necessary features ( only available as plugins which obfuscated their subscription models) if there was a transparent declaration of this subscription - I was lead to believe from all the material I saw that I was BUYING a plugin. No words can fool me into thinking that this is anything but a switch and bait scam.
gvectors has been dishonest IMO to me.
You know dismantling and rebuilding a forum is a massive hassle, that is why you hid this info.
WHat's the point of a forum without image and file features? You know this is a trick, I hope this tactic fails for you, don't expect another cent from me, obviously, my thoughts on gvectors will not remain private.
