  1. Nowadays it's not only about forums anymore.

    On the site I used this addon I just removed the forum and replaced it with a database for the topics.

    For example I also have two other licenses with Core and Gallery only, one with Core and Pages and from at least one other license I am going to remove the forum application before I have to renew it too.

    What I mean is there are surely other clients around here too that don't use forums at all and focus on Pages, Downloads or Commerce only.

    Would be great if the addon could show fake users all around the installed community parts :smile:

    In my Client Area I can't see an option to remove certain products from my licenses. For instance, on one of them I definitely don't need forums, commerce or gallery, so those can go, plus on the other I could probably dispense with Downloads.

    Another question, on some of my licenses I want to cancel some applications too. For example I don't need downloads anymore and on some sites not even forums, only core and pages.

    So can I do that when I get the next invoice? As long as I have already paid for them I still want to use them/backup content, but when I renew not for those apps of course.

    In the client area I can only renew the whole package with all purchased apps and then it looks like it's too late.

  3. Like @Miss_B already said there are many reasons. Distributing files via the Markerplace has it's pros and cons - for developers AND users.

    I prefer not to offer all files in the MP, only themes. That's my decision and you have to respect that. In the end it's simple, If you don't like that just don't use the addons, I don't want to sell anything.

    Funfact: On my old XenForo site you can instant download all my addons and translations without signing up. The difference is they are abandoned after I left XF. They are no longer developed and no longer receive updates. If anyone still wants some of the old stuff he can get it, but on his own risk because I don't support them anymore.

    It'd be like requiring an account to download a file from BetaNews, FileHippo, Softpedia

    You can't compare this to those download portals. Every dev here that runs his own site and offers software and support (free or paid) does this for members only.

    That's exactly the same as you are writing only one line above that. The only difference is, you don't even have to pay :wink:
