(DP42) Single Use License Keys

[DawPi]

INFO:

Commerce will generate a licence key upon a purchase whereas Single Use License Keys app can pre-generate a key "ready to use" either with or without a sale item.

DETAIL:

A new product (or editing an existing one) via Commerce app and choose to use the Single Use License Keys licence method. The next step is to view the Single Use License Keys application itself and select 'Import Keys' and the product. You then add the keys (copy/paste recommended) and click to complete. Single Use License Keys will then adjust the stock levels to ensure that a client cannot purchase the product if there are no licence keys available for it.

BRIEF:

The overview page in the Single Use License Keys application will let you see the total number of keys that have been already issued and any remaining (free) keys. You can also from this page choose a product and examine its key status too.

What's New in Version 2.0.1   

 

Added ability to fully work on a IPS Cloud services (without uploading anything). Will be changed when IPS fix a bug with new types of a licenses for commerce.

[DawPi]

What's New in Version 2.0.2  

• Fixed bug related with removing unused codes.

[Daniel F]

It was brought to our attention that this application requires manually uploaded files. As of 4.4.3 you're able to hook into IPS\nexus\Purchase\LicenseKey::licenseKeyTypes() to register your own LicenseKey class within your applications namespace.

[DawPi]

I did it. Will be reviewed one more time tomorrow.

OK, even if I let you to delete used key then it would be still available via the purchase of the Commerce product. It's fine for you? I rather would send you one modified file with enabled deleting of used keys than enable it for everyone. Satisfied? Send me PM then for more details.

I need to delete the key from the list so that if a user buys the product doesn't end receiving again a key that was already used due to us having to role back a backup 

 

that is the point of deleting a used key @DawPi

[DawPi]

Send me pm - I'll send you more details about that.

Done via PM.

If the user does a CC dispute or refund does this get posted back to the key processor and notify the admins that the key needs to be disabled because of a refund?

[DawPi]

Nope. The key processor build in IPS4 does not support it either.

Are you interested to make something like this?

[Spectral-]

When you say the key processor build in IPS4 doesn't support it do you mean that IPS4 doesn't support updating when a refund or CC dispute is done?

[DawPi]

Let me check something and I'll post more details&questions there. 

[Neutro Short]

would be good i'm also interested in that subject as a refunded key needs to be disabled

Hello, DawPi. I upgraded to IPS 4.5 and the app stopped working.

ERROR 2S119/1 The CSRF protection switch does not match. This may indicate a plugin or theme is out of date. Contact technical support for more information.

You're very fast. 😉

Will check it (as other resources too).

What's New in Version 2.0.5  

• upgrade to 4.5 compatibility.

I just installed this. I changed an existing product to use SULK license keys for new purchases. I purchased a new copy of the product from my own account using my account balance.

The transaction worked and the license keys list shows that one is used, but how does the customer actually receive their key? I don't see it anywhere.

[Interferon]

Okay, I found it is hidden away in "Purchases".

This is very confusing. The email the customer receives does not contain the key. After ordering, they are told they can go to "My Orders" but that page does not contain the license key either.

Is there any way to send the key in a way the customer will actually see it? If I have to send out an email every time someone orders something then this is no better than just manually sending keys.

Hello @Interferon,

this is how IPS4 Commerce license system works now. This mod "just adding" new version of it (from normal md5 generated key) - allow your own license keys (from an external system mostly).

So any suggestions about e-mail notifications and changes places where customer may find their keys should be addressed to IPS Team.

Hope you understand me. 🙂

[Interferon]

Okay, I definitely recommend setting your product to send out a second email that provides a link to the Purchases page so the user can get their key.

You should also add instructions for activating a product on Steam, if it is a Steam key.

Great plugin. 🏅
