Hello Sirs,
I have found a Bug: — Please activate the theme! — Message is displayed to all Users, which does not make Sense. It should be only displayed to users who have the switch_themes or manage options or something like this capabilites. Not to users wo only have edit-posts (or even only read capabilites).
The function where this Nag Screen is “added/defined” is: static function td_cake() {
Note: Yes of course I can enter the key and will do so soon, but it is my development box and I do not want to enter a key there. But this is neverless a bug, this message should only displayed to users who have the right to add this key.
thanks!
Update:
As I can not edit my post?:
Even worse (but missed that completely): It also shows a red Menu-Item called “Activate Theme” in the Admin-Menu, which is even worse and irritating.
Just for clarification: The message curently states:
— Please activate the theme! — Click here to enter your code – if this is an error please contact us at activate@tagdiv.com
=>So this is evern worse, as the users do not know wat tagdiv.com is.
Thanks
Hi,
Your suggestion is quite good and I will update the message and the permissions for the nag screen. I’m very sorry for this inconvenience, I know it’s an extra step but we add it to prevent mass piracy of the theme.
You can use the same key on your dev servers and domains – we have no intention to limit that. Only when one gets out on the forums we block it.

Hello Radu, hello Lucian
thanks for your reply. No need at all to appologize. Your theme is absolutely great. Its worth every Dollar. And you have an absolutely great support. Its a very long time since I was so happy with a product I bought.
Its absolutely OK to have this licencing/nag screen. My concern was only, that in case of any bugs or problems, my users might see this message and might then get very confused. Limiting it to the admin users would therefore be great.
Thats great if I can use the key also on my dev machin, to remove the nag screen (as it helps to free a litte bit of space on the “above the fold” area…)
Thanks for the great theme and support to you both.
