ResultsAiX Sign installs like any other WordPress plugin. You then paste your licence key once, and every screen of the plugin opens up.
The key also tells you how many of your sites can use the plugin, and the licence panel on the Settings tab lets you move it between sites.
Where to find it:
The plugin lives under Plugins in WordPress while you install it. After that, everything is under AiX Sign in your WordPress sidebar. The licence panel is on the Settings tab.
Installing the plugin:
- Download the plugin zip from your account portal.
- In WordPress, go to Plugins, then Add New Plugin, then Upload Plugin.
- Choose the zip file and click Install Now.
- Click Activate Plugin.
- Click AiX Sign in your WordPress sidebar.
Activating your key:
The first time you open AiX Sign you see a screen called Activate your license. Your key was emailed to you from info@resultswithkevin.com when you bought.
- Copy the key from your purchase email.
- Paste it into the License key box.
- Click Activate license.
The plugin checks the key with the licence server. When it is accepted, the page reloads with the full menu: Dashboard, Documents, Templates, Training, Resources, Settings and Diagnostics.
If you see a message:
- License key not recognized: copy the key again from your email, with no spaces at either end.
- This key is valid but does not include ResultsAiX Sign: the key is for a different product. Look for the Sign key in your purchase email.
- This license has no available sites left: open the licence panel on a site you no longer use and click Deactivate This Site, then try again.
- Could not reach the license server: wait a moment and click Activate license again.
The licence panel:
Open AiX Sign, then the Settings tab, and scroll to the panel called License. It shows:
- License Key: your key, masked so only the start and the last four characters show
- Status: Active when everything is in order
- Licensed To: the email address the licence belongs to
- Renews: the date shown for your licence
- Activated Domains: each site the key is active on, with a count such as 2/3 sites used, and your current site marked (this site)
Under the list are the buttons Refresh License Info, Deactivate This Site and All my keys & downloads, which opens your customer portal.
Changing your key:
Type the new key into the Change license key box and click Replace key.
Moving the plugin to another site:
- On the old site, open AiX Sign, then Settings, and click Deactivate This Site. Confirm when asked.
- Install the plugin on the new site and activate your key there.
Your documents, signatures and audit trails stay on the old site exactly as they were.
Freeing a slot from another site:
In the Activated Domains list, click Remove next to any other site. That frees its slot for a new site, which is handy for staging copies. The Remove button next to your current site is greyed out; use Deactivate This Site for that one.
Updates:
New versions appear on your WordPress Plugins screen like any other plugin update. Click Update now when one shows.
Installing PRO:
ResultsAiX Sign PRO is a separate plugin with its own key. Install it the same way, then open AiX Sign and click PRO License in the sidebar. Paste the PRO key and click Activate PRO. PRO needs the core plugin active. See What ResultsAiX Sign PRO Adds.
A real example:
Sam at Oakridge Web Studio runs the live site at yoursite.com and a staging copy at staging.yoursite.com. Both are activated, so the panel reads 2/3 sites used. When the staging copy is no longer needed, one click on Remove frees that slot.
Tips:
- Activate the live site first, then any staging copy.
- Lost your key? Use All my keys & downloads in the licence panel, or the Find it in your portal link under the key box.
- Next, set your sender details on the Settings tab. See The Settings Tab Explained.
