How to activate your theme’s license to receive automatic updates
To receive automatic updates of your theme, you need to activate your license key.
To activate your license key:
- In Theme Palace, go to My-Account > View Licenses > Manage Sites
- Add your site URL in the space provided (see below).
- After entering your URL, click on Add Site.
The next step is to add your license key to your theme installation. To find your license key:
- Go back to My-Account.
Click on View Details and Downloads.
You can copy the License Key of your purchased theme there.
The final step is to add your license key to your copy of the theme. To do this:
• From your WordPress Dashboard, go to Appearance > Theme License.
• Paste the License Key in the specified area.
• Click Save Changes.
You are now set up to receive automatic updates of your theme.
Having some trouble with the Theme License link under Appearance. There is not a Theme License link. Any suggestions?
@drewmelnick: Sorry, looks like you are using old version of theme. This new API key was implemented on 29th Feb 2016. So, please contact our support at http://themepalace.com/support-forum/ or fill in API key support form at http://themepalace.com/update-key-support/
I am having the same problem! I just bought Signify Pro and there is no Theme License section in my WordPress dashboard. Also when I click on the above API key support link I only get a page with a deactivated form. Please help me submit a support request/
UPDATE: disregard earlier request. I was able to resolve issue by uploading file directly to WP. Thx!
i am having the same problem. and i paid for this theme and it shows status pending?
yes please contact our support directly.
I figured it out. I was using a Mac with Safari. Safari would not properly save the .zip file. By using Firefox, the download saved properly under the .zip file. This allowed me to upload the downloaded .zip file. From the time selection page. By uploading a downloaded .zip file from Firefox I was able to use the theme. Ask any questions.
Yes some browsers are really smart and uses auto extractor. So, you did right thing. Either you other browser or you can just zip the folder that you got auto extracted.
Hello,
I just bought the theme Photo Perfect Pro but I do not put the license key in my WordPress .
Theme License section does not appear in the Appearance menu .
So I do not know what to do because I have to pay this theme .

Sorry for the late reply @beezco. It seems like you are using old version where this menu section would not work.
Please confirm you have the latest theme installed or any updates available for download in your dashboard.
Or can you please write here your current theme version so that we can verify it?

Hello @mujeebart, can you please let us know the current version you have downloaded ?
Hi,
thanks Wen
current i am using Version 4.4.2.

Mujeeb
Sorry for the confusion, but would like to know the current version of the Photo Perfect Pro theme that you have installed.
You can find the current version in readme.txt file inside your theme directory.
I don’t have an option to download the license. I have the free version 1.4. Please advise.
@sohughes1, sorry free version does not have this option and feature available. You have to go for Pro version of the theme you are currently using. Or if you have already purchased the Pro version please install and activate to get this option enabled.
Thank you!

Make sure you have activated the purchased theme and deactivate the free theme if previously activated.
After activating the pro theme, you should see the Theme License menu.
If you still have this issue, you can contact support team through Update Key Support Form. http://themepalace.com/update-key-support/

How do I set the initial images in mason layout for blog page – they are blank. thanks
The initial images in masonry layout is the post’s featured images.
So to set the initial images in masonry layout first you need to create/add post going to Admin Panel / Posts -> Add New.
While creating post you need to set Featured Image ( You will see Featured Image section little below in right hand side of the screen) for that post will will be displayed as images in masonry layout.
Similarly you can create/add more posts with featured image which will be displayed as images in masonry layout.
If you have two post’s with featured image then you will see two images in masonry layout.
Please post in your further queries in our support forum to get swift responses.
Hope this will help you.
Regards!!!
Hi, the View Licenses link doesn’t seem to be working. I can’t add my site URL as I can’t access the Manage Sites option on the View Licenses page. Please help
@niharikabalachandra, could you please let us know for what purpose you are trying to change / add your site URL there. We usually do not recommend this approach.
Normally, this information is auto updated after you install and activate your license key from the site.
Also if you want to use the license key in another site domain, you would just deactivate / remove the previous license and use it in another new domain as license would normally work back again from there.
Hope this helps !
I have activated the license on word press, will I now receive updates to my theme?
Yes, once you input the license key and activate it successfully, you will be able to receive the automatic updates.
Hi. I’ve been trying to activate my theme’s license to ensure I receive the automatic updates (Theme is Education Hub). I am trying Account > View Licenses > Manage Sites but the View Licenses link is not working for me. Can you suggest what I might be doing wrong?!
Well you can go to your account dashboard and view your purchase history. Click on ‘View details and downloads’ link which will show you other information along with the License Key. Copy this license key and go to your dashboard Appearance -> Theme License , input the license and activate it.
It should normally work now.
Let us know if you have any confusions.
Thanks! The view licences link is working now:)
Na code krijg ik License status is unknown.
wat moet ik doen
You need to once talk to your hosting. Some hosting blocks API call method which means your hosting server is unable to authenticate with Theme Palace server for Key validation.
If still problem persists, please fill out this form http://themepalace.com/update-key-support/ and let our support team inspect your setup.

The license key emailed to you or you can find it in your account details at Theme Palace. Implementation of this key is pretty easy as described in the tutorial. Make sure you have followed the following steps:
• From your WordPress Dashboard, go to Appearance > Theme License.
• Paste the License Key in the specified area.
• Click Save Changes.
Dear Team ,
i still cannot install the theme which i purchase , can you please install for me !
i cannot see Theme Lie sense on my wordpress
It seems like you still have ‘free’ version activated in your site. Make sure you upload the purchased premium version from dashboard/cPanel/FTP and activate the newer version.
Then you will see the License option under Appearance -> Theme License.
If you have make sure with all above condition satisfied, then email your WP login detail to support[at]wensolutions.com for further inspection.
Thank you.
Hi today i updates word press new version , finally i can activate the licensee for Expedition Pro but it seem home / front main slider, popular trip.. all not work , cannot show up on my home page . i use before the demo version . it is work !
please guide me
@pennyyyp,
The maximum upload size is controlled at the server-level, not by WordPress. Here are three ways you can increase the upload limit:
1. If you can edit or override the system `php.ini` file, increase the maximum file and post sizes. For example, `upload_max_filesize = 100M ;` and `post_max_size = 100M ;`
2. If you cannot edit or override the system `php.ini` file, add `php_value upload_max_filesize 100M` and `php_value post_max_size = 100M` to your `.htaccess` file.
3. If neither of these work, it’s time to ask your hosting provider to increase the maximum file and post sizes on your account. Keep in mind that most decent hosting providers allow this, and If your hosting provider won’t accommodate you, perhaps it’s time to find a new hosting provider.
(in the above examples, the limit is set to 100MB)

I’ve been using Clean Corporate and just purchased the upgraded Clean Corporate Pro. How do I activate the Pro version and will I lose what I’ve been working on already in the free version.
@sfennell, you can simply upload the zip of pro version from Themes section of the dashboard and activate it.
No, you won’t loose any settings after upgrading to the premium version.
Hope this helps!
