However, if your server has a firewall it's possible that it is blocking communication to remote servers and prevents JReviews from verifying the license. To get around this you need to open up the host for JReviews (ping reviewsforjoomla.com) or make your local key permanent.

− | Even though your license never expires, the local key has a valid life of 15 days. When the 15-day period has passed, the key is automatically renewed and stored in the database. This is done to reduce the risk of fraud and enables you to move the license as explained above in point a).

− | Yes, as stated above two months after purchasing a license you can make your local key permanent and disable the remote license check. You can do this in the Client Area under your license details. There you'll find a button to make the key permanent. The button will appear only if the license is active and if you haven't already made the key permanent.

− | You are allowed to use JReviews in subdomains of the same domain. For example if your domain is reviewsforjoomla.com, then you can use the license in sub1.reviewsforjoomla.com, sub2.reviewsforjoomla.com and so on. To enable the license to work on a specific subdomain please submit a ticket requesting the sub-domain you want to enable. We can only add sub-domains after the license has been activated on the main domain or any other sub-domain.
