krpano License Manager Plugin

If you are a krpano plugin developer who wants to distribute your plugins and have your users activate it later with a license key, then this plugin is for you!

History

As I was creating some plugins, I needed a way to let users try out my plugins. I believe that by allowing users to try plugins, they would be better educated and make more thoughtful purchases.

krpano itself shows an nice overlay when using the demo version and the software is activated using a license key.

This idea was interesting enough that I created the same solution, but now for plugins.

Features

• Easy integration into your own plugins
• when not registered, the plugin will display a non-intrusive overlay that shows the software package(s) that have not been registered
• the overlay can be removed by users that purchase your plugin and activating it with a license key
• you can use this plugin in all your plugins you wish to protect
• the license includes validation against your customers krpano registration name and email, and your own product name
• optionally, set an expiration date for the license key
• RSA private / public key based
• Free trial : the free trial gives you access to all files and instructions on how to integrate with your software, but of course... displays an overlay when not registered
• Includes supporting files to generate and validate license keys (web based, stand alone html)

What you get

• A step by step guide and solution for generating and validation license keys for your krpano plugins
• A zip file with all files needed to integrate the plugin into your own code and generating license keys for your customers

Why you should get this plugin

• The simplest way to license your plugins: give them away for free (but with an overlay) and let users activate them with a license key once they decide to purchase/register the plugin
• No need to re-invent the weel - this plugin and the assisting files will have your plugins protected with industry standards and have you up and running in no time. 5 lines of code. That's it!
