Managing IgnitionDeck License Registration
The IgnitionDeck license does allow for a localhost environment and/or a staging environment1 without having to manage the license registration. However, if you are not using a hosting provider that has a supported staging environment, you can change what site your license is activated on via the IgnitionDeck members dashboard.
The IgnitionDeck Echelon license allows for unlimited activations so managing the license is not necessarily required except for administrative "tidying".
The IgnitionDeck Enterprise license allows for a single activation plus a supported staging/development environment. Managing where the license is registered may be required.
Managing Your IgnitionDeck License
- Go to the Licenses/Downloads tab (https://members.ignitiondeck.com/my-account/view-licenses/),
- Under your license key, click on the button titled Manage Sites,
- Under the Site URL section, you can click the Deactive Site link to remove the license activation on your testing environment.
Please note that deactivating the license will not remove any of the configuration on your testing environment—it will simply disable the paid functionality.
