EffectIO CMB2 Field Type: EDD License 1.1.1

Description:

CMB2 Field Type: EDD License is a custom field for CMB2 that automatically handles EDD Software Licensing license activation and item updates. It provides an edd_license field type for use in CMB2 metaboxes on post types such as pages and posts.

The field accepts the same parameters as the CMB2 text field type and adds settings of its own. Required settings are the server URL for the EDD SL API and the path to the item main file. Optional settings cover the item ID, item name, installed version, and author, with values taken from the main file header when they are not set. A wp_override option can be set to true so WordPress plugin information is replaced with the details provided by your server.

Output behavior is configurable through options for a deactivate button, a clear button, and a license expiration notice showing the remaining time while a license is valid. A renew link can point to a website where users renew the license, and a renew timestamp controls when that notice appears, with a default of thirty days before expiration or false to show the notice always. The entered license key is hidden by default using a mask character, and the number of visible characters can be adjusted or set to zero to hide the key completely.

The vendor’s own page for CMB2 Field Type: EDD License has the full details.
