    the $160 licence question...

    When you get this licence, you get to keep vB on one web server (one domain) forever? or just for one year then you gotta renew it?

    the US$160 license grants you to a license use forever on one domain with included 1yr of product updates... after the first year, you can continue to use vB on your 1 domain

    however you need to purchase a yearly update subscription to be able to access the members area for future upgrades/updates

      yes and the yearly update to access the members area is only $30 / year if you have an owned license .

        one server / one domain ...
        Does it means, if i change the provider,
        it's a different server, and even the domain name is different,
        i have to buy another license,
        or i can use it later on other server / with different URL,
        and it must be only one instance at any given time ?

        Also domain != domain name , right ?
        I mean, if i have a webspace with domain names
        "www.mydomain1.com" and "www.mydomain2.com",
        which belong to the same webspace,
        i still can run vbulletin with one license on this webspace ?

        Sorry, it's probable stupid questions,
        but i just want to be sure

        Thanks in advance

          if you change domains or urls you just need to got to the members access area and update your license details

              The one that used to confuse me is, when i asked similar questions, the admins would say "not able to access admin area, etc"

              i though they meant admin area on forums, but low and behold they meant admin area on their sites, just some clarification!
