Another beta 3.0.3 … and the addition of ‘custom’ licenses ..
The introduction of a license for the use of the program with release 3.0 has been well accepted by the community. Most users seem to agree with the objectives of it ... to give donating users and registered users some advantages.
But, as was to be expected, not every user is happy with the limitations of the various license types. And, also, it became clear that there roughly two types of users:
If your license remains 'classic' despite upgraded to V3.0.2 beta, you have two options :
1. Be patient, as soon as your license will be updated (normally once a week) it will be set to the license you are entitled to.
2. If you don't want to wait, run the program one time in license update 'force' mode .
You do that by adding 'f' or 'force' to the license element in the config file :
The request for a License Password is no longer necessary. Every user that is logged in on the website can see and copy it from his user profile page.
On it its marked as ‘License pass code’.
There are several ways to open this user profile page :
- click on ‘my account’ at the bottom of each web page
- go to http://www.webgrabplus.com/users/’username’
- click on your own user pictogram that shows left of any forum post you made
Build 3 ..
Unfortunately some stupid programmer left a piece of code in REX that , obviously, crashes under most conditions! Apparently it was only tested under the rare condition it doesn't crash .. blame on him!
... Oh , gosh, that programmer was me, Jan !! Again sorry ..
If you need REX, be sure you run this build of V3, if it shows "WebGrab+Plus/w MDB & REX Postprocess -- version V3.0.0.0 -- build 3" at the start you're OK.
Despite the difficult times we all have to deal with ..
.. a new release, Version 3.0.0 is ready for you all. Apart from the regular fixes and improvements, the main change is how it interacts with the individual user. The purpose of this interaction is to give donating users privilege over regular/unregistred users, which we feel is fair. You might consider it the introduction of a 'license'.
