Subdirectory

Hi,

I installed Newspaper in my domain nopua.com

I’d like to install another two Newspaper in nopua.com/tw , and nopua.com/en

Does this require me to purchase another two Newspaper, or I can use the original Newspaper in subdirectory?

The purpose of this practice is for multi language.

Thanks.

Generally a license should be tied to one “domain folder” which in your case is the root domain — so I think you are fine.

If you were setting up client sites in different sub-directores like client1.mysite.zzz then you WOULD need additional licenses.

“Technically” the license refers to ONE “install” — (see the license on Themeforest included with your purchase, btw — good idea to look at THAT) — but almost everybody considers it fair use to install on one website.

For example on our main company site, we use static pages (not WP) with our service info; we have custom CMS for our news system in one sub-folder; we have blog running with TagDiv theme in another folder. I would not personally pay for another license to also use the same theme on same site but to setup my ecom system in another folder on the same domain for same site. Theme still being used for ONE website, just due to the site structure I can’t use theme for everything as site predates WP existing by 6 years.

So, point being — generally I don’t think you would have problem creating alt version of the site in sub-folders as long as it’s the same content.

If you were creating completely DIFFERENT websites with different content, different images, etc., then that probably WOULD need a new license.

I don’t work here — just feedback while I’m on my first cup of coffee 🙂

Hi Chris,

Thank you for helping! I’m planning on Subdirectory only, NOT subdomain.

Example:
nopua.com/tw/
nopua.com/en/
nopua.com/…/

So I’ll have to wait for official answer.
