Using Your License on Localhost and Staging Sites

When you use Visual Portfolio with a localhost or a staging site, it is not considered as an activation, so the license can be used on the production site.

To activate Visual Portfolio Pro on a live site, simply follow these instructions.

What is a Staging Site?

A staging site is a copy of your live website used for testing changes before applying them to the live site. This allows you to experiment and perfect your site safely.

Normally, you need a Visual Portfolio Pro license activation for every WordPress installation, regardless of whether it is a live site, development site, sub-domain, sub-directory, etc. However, to help creators work with staging sites, there are a number of staging and development domains that do not count towards your license activations.

Supported Staging Environments

Some hosting providers offer custom staging environments. Using these environments will not count toward your license activations. Supported providers include:

• WP Engine
• InstaWP
• Cloudways
• Kinsta
• GoDaddy
• FlyWheel
• BlueHost
• HostGator
• SiteGround

If your hosting provider is not listed, they may use standard methods for staging sites, and general rules will apply.

Supported Domain Formats

Staging and development domains that do not count towards license activations include:

TLD (Top-Level Domains):

• .dev (example.dev)
• .local (example.local)
• .test (example.test)
• .wpengine.com (example.wpengine.com)

Subdomains:

• dev. (dev.example.com)
• test.* (test.example.com)
• *.test.* (example.test.example.com)
• staging.* (staging.example.com)
• *.staging.* (example.staging.example.com)
• staging-[0-9].* (staging-6.example.com)

IP addresses:

• 10.0.0.0/8
• 172.16.0.0/12
• 192.168.0.0/16

If your staging/development domain does not meet these requirements, you’ll need to purchase an additional license or upgrade your plan. Alternatively, you can transfer your license between your main site and your staging/development site as needed.
