In the Options, a Pro badge marks the reserved features.
The trial and its end Starter
The trial starts at installation and lasts 14 days; the days left are shown in the icon menu. At the end, without a licence, Modula switches to the Free plan:
- your SmartTexts and SmartMails all stay there, and usable;
- beyond 20 SmartTexts or 5 SmartMails, you can no longer create new ones;
- site restrictions already set stay applied, but can no longer be changed.
The examples installed by the introduction (demo badge) don't count towards the limits.
Buying Pro Starter
In Settings → Plan & Licence, Buy Modula Pro — €9.99/year, or the Go Pro button in the icon menu on the Free plan. Payment is handled by our reseller; you receive a licence key by email.
Activating a key Basic
- Settings → Plan & Licence.
- Paste the key you received into Licence key, then Activate.
- “✓ Licence activated”: everything is unlocked, right away, on all your pages.
| Message | What to do |
|---|---|
| Invalid or expired key | Check the key (copy it from the email, without spaces) and your subscription date |
| This key is not a Modula licence | The key belongs to another product |
| Network error, please retry | Activation needs a connection: try again once online |
The key is checked at activation, then at most once a day: it's one of Modula's only two connections to the Internet. It only sends the key and its activation ID, never your texts. See Privacy.
Changing or removing a key Advanced
- Change: Change licence, paste the new key. The old one is only released once the new one is accepted: you're never left without a licence.
- Remove: Deactivate this licence frees the key for another computer; this one goes back to the Free plan.
