Licensing Addon smarty code

[sgrayban]

Is there a smarty tag I can put in my emails to provide the client with the license key ?

 

Also why is the key being placed in the domain section under the admin clients product page ? Did I miss a step ?

I'm getting the same thing on testing the addon and cannot figure this out.

 

The licenses are being issued/controlled as I would expect but when I "purchase" a license the License Key is being inserted into the "Domain" field for the addon.

 

At the moment I have configured a custom field called "License Key" and am cutting and pasting the key from the "Domain" field to make it look as you would expect.

 

Is there a setting where this is defined in the addon or admin?

There must be a way to do it.

 

Matt did it here, if you go to your product page you will see your license and when you click on it it sends you to the "Product Details".

 

When my clients click on mine they get a domain url instead. Very strange as there is nothing in the docs about this.

The license number is in the domain field as it makes it easier to setup rather than having to add a custom field to each licensed product.

In your product email you can use this

Your License Key for {$service_product_name} is {$service_domain}

[sgrayban]

I don't have a problem with that, what clients don't like is when you click on the link they expect to go to the product instead of it being treated as a URL. Matt did it here so how did he do it ?

[sparky]

To change that then I guess you will need to edit your tpl file to change the url when its a licensed product

Hi Sparky, thanks for the info.

 

If anyone needs a quick start on the template change its in the clientareaproducts.tpl (and for me its on line 12)

 

Find:

 

{$service.group} - {$service.product}{if $service.domain}<br /><a href="http://{$service.domain}" target="_blank">{$service.domain}</a>{/if}

 

and replace with

 

{$service.group} - {$service.product}{if isset ($service.domain) && $service.module == 'licensing'}<br /><a href="{$smarty.server.PHP_SELF}?action=productdetails&id={$service.id}" target="_blank">{$service.domain}</a>{else}<br /><a href="http://{$service.domain}" target="_blank">{$service.domain}</a>{/if}

P.S. To keep the template "clean" and cater for users that sell products and services other than those requiring domains the {else} should really be an {elseif $service.domain}

 

as follows:

 

{$service.group} - {$service.product}{if isset ($service.domain) && $service.module == 'licensing'}<br /><a href="{$smarty.server.PHP_SELF}?action=productdetails&id={$service.id}" target="_blank">{$service.domain}</a>{elseif $service.domain}<br /><a href="http://{$service.domain}" target="_blank">{$service.domain}</a>{/if}

Well done... it will only work for V4.2.1+ though

$service.module is not in V4.1.2

[sgrayban]

bummer and I was just about to get all giddy here

I completely read that wrong.... for some reason my brain farted and I didn't see the V4.2.1+

 

Thanks for the tip Vox !!!

@ Sparky - well caught! and thank you.

 

@sgrayban - you're welcome.

[sgrayban]

Vox you should add this to the wiki if you can.
