In order to receive automatic updates, you will need to connect your FooEvents account and website. To do so, you will need to enter your website URL in the My Account section of the FooEvents.com website. You will then be provided with an license key which can be entered on your website in the FooEvents Global Settings section.

Expired licenses
Only accounts with a valid FooEvents license will have access to plugin downloads, support and are eligible for automatic updates. Licenses expire 12 months after purchase date.
If you purchased the FooEvents for WooCommerce plugin on Envato/CodeCanyon, then you can still download and manually update the plugin from your Envato profile, however, should you wish to receive automatic updates and technical support you will need to renew your license on Envato/CodeCanyon or purchase a new license on FooEvents.com
Please note, after setting or renewing a license, it could take a short while before the update options reflect on the plugins page due to WordPress caching.
Updates not working
The most likely reasons why your automatic plugin updates are not working are:
- Your FooEvents license has expired
- You haven’t created and saved your FooEvents license key or Envato purchase code in the FooEvents plugin settings which is required for automatic plugin updates to work correctly
- The Website URL that is linked to the FooEvents license key in your FooEvents Account doesn’t exactly match the URL where the FooEvents plugins are installed (e.g. contains ‘http://’ instead of ‘https://’)
- It could take up to 24 hours for any changes to your FooEvents license key to take effect and automatic plugin updates to start working
