## Common Licence Activation Issues

Some of the common issues users face while activating the Nexter Pro license.

### Expired Licence 

In some cases, if you're not receiving updates and cannot activate Nexter Pro, then your license might have expired.

To check this, visit the Store.

Go To **Dashboard**, and under the **Manage Subscription**s, check if you see this.

Learn [How to Renew your license from here](https://qa.nexterwp.com/docs/renew-nexter-pro-license/).

### Make sure Site and Home URL are Same

Make sure your website WordPress Address (URL) and the Site Address (URL) are the same. 

To check from the WordPress backend, go to **Settings** > **General**.

![wordpress address url site address url](https://qa.nexterwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/wordpress-address-url-site-address-url.png)

For example, if you installed and activated the plugin licence on a staging site and then you moved it to the production site, the homepage URL and Site URL could be different and this can cause the licence activation issue.

### Security Firewall Blocking

There might be chances that your advanced Security firewall from a plugin or hosting is blocking access to our servers to verify the key. Please disable your Security firewall and try again.

You can use the licence on local-host and staging sites unlimited times, regardless of the limited website plan. Staging sites will be considered only if they:

- localhost

- 10.0.0.0/8

- 172.16.0.0/12

- 192.168.0.0/16

- yourdomain.dev

- yourdomain.local

- dev.yourdomain.TLDs

- staging.yourdomain.TLDs
