You need to keep the Pro version activated if you want the pages to work, because they have elements that are only available in that version. I don’t think you need to keep a license, as that only provides for updates to newer versions. However, without a license you’ll of course also miss out on possible security updates.
Having said all the above, I wonder if anyone would even want to keep a license, seeing the complete utter mess Elementor made of the last ‘upgrade’…
Thank you so much for your reply.
I am not sure I understand. The PRO version is not free so basically this plugin is useless to use for a business because I can NEVER be sure I’ll keep paying this PRO version for life, meanwhile my clients are sure they WILL keep their websites for life and want them functioning.
I don’t think my work should be conditioned by paying a program/plugin.
I understand I have to pay to work with all the functions (THAT is why I pay) but the material I create with it should not be conditioned like this.
If I pay for a video edit software and create some videos and sell/upload them, after I stop paying the program and dezinstall it it’s not like the videos I created disappear or stop working… I don’t understand why this can’t be the same.
Are there other alternatives?
Hi,
Since you are using our Pro features on your website, you’ll need to open a support ticket at my.elementor.com.
WordPress.org rules state that commercial products are not supported here.
@muntomani You indeed seem not to understand how it works. What you created with Elementor Pro will keep functioning even after a license has expired as long as you keep the Pro version installed and activated.
UNLESS, a Pro feature gets into a conflict with e.g. a WordPress update.
By the way, you cannot compare a video editing software (which normally is OFFline) to software in use on a live website (in other words: ONline). If you do not understand that difference, I suggest you first do some more learning.
