Activating License

In order to start creating projects you need an active license. LITE users and PRO users that have only one license will have first license already active, so they can skip this step.

In top right corner you will see a box with number of available licenses left and Activate New License button. Upon clicking on Activate New License, page will be refreshed and after page reloads you will see Unassigned license at the top of the active licenses list.

LITE users will see button Upgrade To Pro. Clicking on button will open a popup for upgrading/purchasing a PRO license

Assigning Domain

Assigning a domain name to a license is an action that will enable your CU3ER to display correctly, without branding on your target domain. Until you assign domain to your license all CU3ER's exported will have branded slides and CU3ER preloader on start. Assigning a domain name is not necessary to create and manage projects.

LITE users cannot assign domain to their license, since it is automatically assigned to getcu3er.com.
Once LITE user upgrades to PRO he will be able to assign domain.

To assign domain to active license please do the followin:

  1. Click on a yellow button "Assign Domain" in license row
    CU3ER Account - Assign domain

  2. Popup "Assign domain to PRO license" will appear
    CU3ER Account - Assign domain popup

  3. Enter your domain name in the input field. Make sure you have entered correct domain name as once assigned, domain name can’t be changed as license is bounded with that domain name for good.
    Please note you need to enter just domain name (e.g. my-site.com) without ‘http://’ and ‘www’

  4. Click on the button "Proceed". If you've entered valid domain name, you will go to next step "Confirm domain name". You can confirm assigning of domain name by clicking button "Yes, assign domain now!" or go back to editing domain name by clicking "Edit domain name" button.

  5. Upon clicking on the "Proceed" page will be refreshed and you will see your "Unassigned" license change title to domain you've assigned.
    Congratulations! Your have assigned domain to your license.
  6. License assigned for domain name will be valid for that domain and all it’s sub domains.
