newbie question - developer license

[alkasber]

Hi,

I´m new with Ablecommerce, my question is simple.

I saw this post by logan regarding a permanent no expiring DEMO mode for those that already have the license.

If you have a valid license installed, go open the file App_Data\ablecommerce.config.

The first line should start <application ....

Anywhere inside that line, add the demoMode indicator:

<application demoMode="true" ...

If you have a live license installed, this will put your store into full-time demo mode. Domain restrictions are not enforced and there is no expiration. You can also switch this on and off from the admin interface. This is a new feature we added in RC3 to try and ease the difficulty of development against a live license.

My question. This switch and off in the admin interface, does it only shows up if you have a license? (I´m still with the DEMO)

I have to make a lot of customizations before going live. (I´m Brazil) I have to use the development license and when I go live I change it to the standard license? Or can I solve this using the standard license and method that Logan posted above.

How it works?

Thanks!

You can do either, the choice is yours.

Since you have a developer license, use your developer license locally and just install your live license when you upload your site to the live server.

Or, leave the development copy in demo mode and make your modifications. When it's ready, upload it to the live server and install your license. Then switch off the demo mode in the Admin side.
