An Extended License is not a Multi-use License.

For your reference: http://codecanyon.net/forums/thread/any-update-on-multiusedeveloper-or-volume-licenses/54130?page=1 (it has been requested many other places as well, but this had some good discussion).

Envato does not offer developer licenses at this time, unfortunately.

I can’t get on board with suggesting they buy an Extended License instead of multiple regular licenses. If it ever came down to it, they could be held liable for illegal usage on their other 49 sites (or 45, if they buy 5), since the Extended License is still single use. Is that likely to happen? No, of course not. But I can’t in good conscience tell my customers that’s what they should do. Perhaps that’s a dumb attitude, and I know I lose a lot of business because of it… but currently I feel our hands are simply tied, and that’s just how it is.

We need a real multi-use license. I am hoping this is in the set of “new license changes” that are coming :)

I’m confused on what the issue is… Let them by the theme 50 times and take their money ;)

I’ve had many people use my theme for multiple projects and they just buy it each time…of course not all buyers are that honest.

I think the issue is that buying 1 license 50 times is very inconvenient. Most buyers don’t want to do this. Some are concerned with price, but most just don’t want to have to deal with going through the purchase process that many times (I can’t blame them).

Being able to set a quantity of regular licenses to purchase, rather than making it one at a time, would also solve the issue, of course. :)

Would a greasemonkey script be possible for this too?

Oh, then what we need is a little box where we can enter an amount of copies prior to checkout.

Exactly. Why is what seems like a simple addition of a quantity box such a hard thing to get? Let the site do the multiplication and then charge it as one amount / one transaction.

Otherwise you’re looking at 50 transactions on the same CC / Debit card which likely will raise a red flag or two (and it should) with the issuing bank. If you use PayPal, I don’t know what they’d think of that. Lastly, every transaction would generate at least 3 email messages. So that’s 150 emails too! Definitely nutty to say the least. :-)

Yes, no multi license is the biggest problem with the envanto marketplace right now.
