- Cause: the issue appears for multiple-user licenses, when the inserted registration code is invalid.
- Solution: contact the license administrator - the person who purchased the license from our website - in order for him to reset the license; the procedure for resetting the license is described below:
- Go to www.extendstudio.com and login to your Extend account.

- Cause: the issue appears when the serial you are trying to use to register a product is already in use.
- Solution: for a single-user license, the procedure is to reset the license by following the steps above and then register the product on the new work station; for a multiple-user license, use a registration code, or if you don't have any, follow the indications given for the errors 503, 664.
- Note: in the case of the single-user license, since it's a one use/device license the product will not work anymore on the initial work station after you transfer the license.
The configuration panel opens automatically when you insert a new menu on a page. Also, you can edit a previously inserted menu by clicking on the "Edit Menu" button.
When you configure a menu you can use presets to quickly save and reuse configurations. Also, if the menu is located in many pages accross the website you can use the "Save to all pages" feature that will make save the changes made to the menu in all the pages where the menu is present. You can read more about menu configuration and how the extension simplifies your work from here.
At the moment, the license type that we offer is the single-user license, with an unlimited time duration; although this type of license doesn't allow multiple simultaneous use, it can be used on any number of work stations, following a simple procedure which involves reseting the license on a station, and registering it on the new, desired one.
In the near future, there will appear more types of license, both referring to the number of users - multiple-user licenses - or to the time duration - limited time duration licenses.
