Devepler Mode - Testing Licence

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi, I have a problem with the IP. Board. I want to learn the IP framework. Board, but I can not find a free IPB. I want to install the free license IPB (test) to be able to instruct the framework. The Client Area when I click the download takes me aside to buy, how and where to take the free version of the forum where I can put on a trial license?

Hello,

There is no 'free' version as such and has not been for a very, very long time now.

The only 'free' option is the five day demo although it has restrictions as it is not intended as a dev environment in any way, and no data is saved after it expires.

The most economical way of obtaining IPBoard is a Hosted Community although the files are encoded, depending on what you plan on doing (as you say learning the framework) this may not be suitable. To have clear files you'd need a Self Hosted licence.

The only option for testing IP.Board is the demo system:

But that is just to let you try out running a site, not developing with the framework. If you want to develop products for IP.Board, then you'd need to purchase an IP.Board license, just like those who use the software to run a site with.

To clarify, there is no (legal) way to run IP.Board without purchasing it. The test license you are referencing is something you gain access to once you have purchased a full license. It is designed to allow you to run a test installation in addition to your live installation, so that you can test things without affecting your live site. It is not a free substitute for a purchased license.
