Go to the JReviews admin license screen. Clear the local key text area and re-submit the license number. This will fetch a new local key that includes the recently purchased add-on information. If that doesn't work submit a ticket.

== Installation & Configuration ==
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). For more information, read this article http://docs.reviewsforjoomla.com/How_does_the_JReviews_license_work

+
:*If this is the first time you install JReviews, you must also install the ionCube loaders on your site. Read the [[JReviews Pre-install requirements]].
+
:*If it was working before, this means something changed on your server that made the ionCube loaders stop working. You’ll need to contact your host to find out what they changed. You might need to upgrade the loaders to the latest version.

You need to check the "upload_max_filesize" setting in your server’s php.ini file and increase it to at least 8M so the the package can be installed without a server timeout.

Make sure all your menus have unique aliases. If you created the hidden Joomla menus required for proper sef url functionality, these cannot have the same aliases as their JReviews equivalents.

For any type of problem, if you have recently modified any core php JReviews files, you must revert to the original to make sure the issue is unrelated to your changes.
