​Optional: Pro License

Summary: Activate the Antimanual Builder Pro License to unlock premium import features, AI-assisted page planning, and advanced controls. This guide explains where to enter your key, how activation works, what becomes available, and how to verify the license status in WordPress.

The Pro License is the activation step that unlocks Antimanual Builder Pro features after the free plugin is installed. Once your license is validated, the premium import workflow, AI-assisted planning, and other Pro-only controls become available in the WordPress dashboard.

What the Pro License Does

Antimanual Builder Pro is designed as an extension to the free plugin. This means the base plugin must remain active, while the Pro plugin adds premium functionality on top. The license does not replace the free version; it authorizes access to the Pro features bundled with the add-on.

After activation, you can use premium tools such as single HTML file import, ZIP project import, and optional AI page planning for supported workflows. If the license is inactive, the Pro import routes remain locked and the related screens are not available.

• Requires the free Antimanual Builder plugin as the base installation
• Activates premium import and planning features in the Pro plugin
• Unlocks the HTML Import screen and related Pro-only settings
• Enables enhanced import handling for pages, assets, and project structure

Where to Enter Your License Key

To activate the Pro License, open your WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to the Antimanual Builder Pro account or license section. The exact menu label may vary depending on the installation path, but the activation screen is provided by the Pro plugin after it is installed.

Paste the license key from your purchase confirmation email or customer account into the license input field. Then click the activation button to submit the key for validation. If the key is accepted, the status panel will confirm that the license is active.

• Open the Pro plugin’s license or account screen
• Copy your license key from the purchase email or account area
• Paste the key into the license field
• Select Activate License and wait for confirmation

Activation Steps

Follow the standard activation sequence to ensure the Pro plugin is ready to use. This process is intentionally simple and is completed directly from the WordPress dashboard without requiring manual code edits.

• Install and activate the free Antimanual Builder plugin
• Install and activate Antimanual Builder Pro
• Go to the Pro license or account page in the admin area
• Enter your license key and click Activate License
• Wait for the confirmation message showing the license is active

Once validation completes, Pro features are enabled automatically. You do not need to manually switch on individual modules before using the premium import tools. For a related setup step, see .

What Becomes Available After Activation

When the Pro License is active, the premium builder workflow is unlocked in the dashboard. This includes the import backend, which is the core addition provided by the Pro plugin. The free plugin continues to handle existing manual builder features, while Pro adds advanced file import and migration capabilities.

• Single HTML file import with associated assets
• ZIP project import for multi-page static site migration
• Optional AI-assisted page planning for supported ZIP workflows
• Premium import screen access from the WordPress admin menu
• Advanced import handling for larger and more structured projects

If you are preparing to migrate existing content, the license is especially important because the import routes are not available without it. For migration details, review Docy Theme 2.0.0 Update: EazyDocs Migration Guide and .

How to Verify Successful Activation

After activation, confirm that the Pro plugin is functioning correctly by checking for Pro-only menus, screens, or settings. A successful license status should also appear in the account panel. If the activation is valid, premium controls will load automatically across the relevant builder areas.

• The license status panel shows the key as active
• Pro-only import screens are visible in the admin menu
• Premium import options appear inside the builder workflow
• The free plugin remains active alongside the Pro plugin

If these items do not appear, refresh the dashboard, confirm the correct license key was used, and verify that both plugins are still active. In most cases, activation issues are related to an incomplete installation or an incorrect key entry.

Troubleshooting Common License Issues

If the license does not activate, first confirm that the free plugin and Pro plugin are installed in the correct order. The Pro plugin depends on the base plugin, so the free version must remain active for the premium features to load properly.

Also verify that the key matches the one provided in your purchase email or account dashboard. Copying the key directly is recommended to avoid spacing errors. If your site is behind a restrictive server configuration, ensure that WordPress can communicate with the license validation endpoint.

• Check that the free plugin is installed and active
• Confirm the Pro plugin has been uploaded and activated
• Re-enter the license key carefully without extra spaces
• Refresh the admin page after saving activation changes
• Contact support if the status remains inactive after retrying
