1. Plugin Licensing
Sitewide Sales, Paid Memberships Pro, and all our Add Ons, unless otherwise stated, are licensed under the GNU General Public License (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html) version 2.0.
This means, among other things, that you may use the software on this site or any other site free of charge. You can run this code on as many sites as you want. The code is not obfuscated, so you can customize it to fit your needs or use the code in your own projects.
In fact, you can do pretty much anything you want with our code as long as you follow the GPLv2 guidelines by applying the GPLv2 license to any altered or unaltered versions of our plugins that you distribute.
If you are using an altered version of one of our plugins in one of your projects, we do ask that you:
(a) Give your software a unique name.
