How to create, download and activate a uSkinned license

Step 1

Step 2 a

Check to see if you have any available licenses. If you do, click on the button 'Create' next to one of your unassigned licenses.

Step 2 b

If you have no available licenses you will need to buy an additional one. Click to buy a Site Builder License and follow the steps to complete the purchase.

Once payment is complete return to this screen and then move on to step 3.

Step 3

Before filling out the website license form you should read the following instructions:

You must specify a production domain (live website domain e.g. umbraco.com).
- You can also specify additional staging and development domains if required.
Domains should be entered without http:// or https://.
Enter your domain as 'mywebsite.com' rather than 'www.mywebsite.com' for this to work correctly.
Do not enter any forward or backslashes in your domain.

Example Website License

Production Domain: website.com

Staging Domain: website.staging.com

Development Domain: website.development.com

Umbraco Cloud

Please note, if you are using Umbraco Cloud, then your staging and development domains should contain your umbraco.io and azurewebsites.net provided domains.

Production Domain: website.com

Staging Domain: YOUR-SITE-ID.umbraco.io

Development Domain: YOUR-SITE-ID.azurewebsites.net

Step 4

Enter the domains you wish to assign to your license and double-check these are correct as you will not be able to edit them in the future. Now click 'Create'.

If you do make a mistake and require your license to be edited in the future you will have to submit a support request to the uSkinned team.

Step 5

Click 'Download' to access your license file.

Step 6

Take note of where you have downloaded your license file on your local machine.

Step 7

This step will differ slightly, depending on what version of Umbraco you are running.

Open your website solution on your local machine. From the root folder, navigate to the ~/umbraco/Licenses/ folder. If /Licenses/ folder does not exist inside ~/umbraco/, then you can create this folder.

Add the license file you downloaded in Step 6.

You can now view your website with a fully licensed version of uSkinned Site Builder.

Please note, you may need to restart your website before the license message will be updated.

Open your website solution on your local machine. From the root folder, navigate to the ~/bin folder.

Add the license file you downloaded in Step 6 here.

You can now view your website with a fully licensed version of uSkinned Site Builder.

Please note, when you add a file to the ~/bin folder the website will be restarted so the first load might take a little longer than usual.
