Understanding The Plugin License<\/h3>\n

The way it works on ThemeForest<\/a> is when a plugin is included for free with a WordPress Theme\u00a0you can use the plugin for free without any issues, however,\u00a0if you want automatic updates and support from the plugin developer you need to purchase it separately (this is 100% optional). Some plugins include a field to enter your \u201cpurchase\u201d code for the plugin. Since you purchased a bundled product you do NOT have a purchase code for that plugin so you can\u2019t enter anything in this field.\u00a0Updates to the plugins are provided when the theme itself is updated as mentioned below.<\/p>\n

Included\u00a0plugins should\u00a0work 100%\u00a0without the need for entering a purchase code into the plugin settings (if available).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
