License

Settings 3 min read

This page explains how the addon decides whether the admin may operate it. It is for the WHMCS administrator who saves the license key.

The License screen shows the ServLayer subscription for Uptime Monitor 2. Verification uses HTTPS to www.uni-art.io. A failed check is remembered for a short time so the rest of WHMCS does not wait on the license server on every page.

License tab — product and account information panels License tab — binding details, update notifications, and license key field


License Status Panel

The top panel shows the current license verification result:

Field Description
Status Active — license is valid and the addon is fully operational
Support Expires Date your active support window ends; builds released after this date require a renewed subscription to install
Billing Status Whether the underlying WHMCS service is active or suspended
Product The ServLayer product name linked to this license key
Key Prefix Keys for this product start with SRV-UM2-

Binding Information

When a license key is first verified, it binds to the installation environment:

Binding field Value
Domain The WHMCS domain at time of first verify
IP Address The server IP at time of first verify

Note

If you move to a new server or domain, contact ServLayer support to reissue the key and reset the binding.


Update Notifications

The update panel shows whether a newer version of Uptime Monitor 2 is available:

Field Description
Installed Version The UM2_BUILD_VERSION constant in the current build
Latest Available The newest version registered on the ServLayer release server
Release Date When the latest version was published

Click View Changelog to open an in-panel modal with the tagged release notes for the current and newer versions.

Note

Update information is fetched only after a successful license verification. If the license is invalid, the update banner is not shown.


License Key Field

Field Description
License Key Enter or replace the SRV-UM2- key

After entering the key:

  • Click Save License Key to store it.
  • Click Force Check to immediately verify the key against the ServLayer license server and refresh all status fields.

Extension Licenses

The bottom section of the License tab lists extensions and their license status:

Extension Status field
Multi-Region Active / Not licensed
Status Page Pro Active / Not licensed

Extension licensing is managed through the same ServLayer subscription as the core addon.


What Happens When the License Is Invalid

If the license check fails or the key is missing:

  • The admin area is limited to the license screen, with renewal guidance
  • Scheduled checks stop
  • Public status pages keep showing the last known state. Visitors can read that state. They cannot change it

A blocked extension does not turn off the core addon. The core keeps running, and that extension stays disabled until its own entitlement is valid.

[!IMPORTANT] Builds released after the support window is closed are blocked. A build released before that date keeps running. Only a newer build requires renewal.


Troubleshooting

Problem Fix
Status shows "Invalid" Verify the key is correct; check domain/IP binding
Status shows "Version Blocked" The installed build was released after your support expiry; renew or downgrade
Force Check fails Allow outbound HTTPS from the server to www.uni-art.io
Extension shows "Not licensed" Contact ServLayer to add the extension to your subscription
