Third-Party Plugins

All of our included GPL-licensed third-party plugins will not stop working if you don’t have a license. You can still use it perfectly and legally.

You only need a license if you want to ask for support from the their teams or if you want to get the updates from them rather than from Labinator.

Please note as well that page builders like (Elementor) or (Beaver Builder) may also require a license to access their cloud library of templates. If you need to use their templates, please consider getting a license from them. Alternatively, you can use our own Elementor templates which we provide in the portal.

Our team does not provide support for the included third-party plugins. We only provide support for our own developed products.

We are providing the latest version of some third-party plugins (like Elementor Pro) to help our members in building their sites affordably without them having to buy a separate license for every plugin or website.

Yes, it is perfectly legal to use them without a license since they are all released under the GPL license.

Yes, you can remove this message by installing our premium plugin: Labinator Hide Admin Notifications. This plugin is available for download as part of your membership.

1. Log in to your account at the Labinator WordPress Marketplace.
2. Go to the Downloads page.

We update the third-party plugins once we verify their compatibility with our own plugins.
There is no time-frame for updating these as it depends on our workload and how fast we can test them.

Update Notifications

Since our products work without any license, and they are made for freelancers and agencies, no automatic updates are available. You have manually to download the updates from our membership portal. Only the free plugins and themes that we provide at WordPress.org support automatic updates.

It is good to note that manual updates are safer for the websites compared to automatic updates. They also only take a few seconds of your time with only a click of a button. If something breaks because of a plugin conflict in a manual update, you will instantly see it. However, with automatic updates, your website might break or not behave as expected without your knowledge. We always recommend manual updates for best possible experience.

Our team verifies and tests every update thoroughly before uploading it to our portal.

1. Locate the Changelog button from the upper menu of this website and click on it.
2. Check the latest versions and compare them with what is installed on your end.
3. Install the latest versions by accessing your Dashboard then clicking on the Downloads button.

This error message typically specifies a problem with stray characters, some of which are not visible, in front of the opening tag or after the closing tag of the file. Check the error message to find the particular file name that’s generating the warning. The file name usually is at the end of the error message.

To fix this problem, you have two choices. The easier choice, if you haven’t made any significant editing changes lately, would be to replace the file that’s causing the error message with your backup copy that was working correctly.

If a working backup copy isn’t available, you’ll need to download the file that’s causing the problem. Open the file in a text editing program that doesn’t create hidden characters. Do not use a word processing program because it sometimes will insert hidden formatting characters in the file. Make sure the first characters are <? and the last characters are ?> in the file. Check for any hidden characters at the end of the file, such as spaces, by moving your cursor to the end of the file and deleting any found spaces.

  1. Get access to the file system on your server. Our recommended method is using SFTP, but you can also potentially use cPanel or SSH.
  2. Find, in the root of your WordPress install, the .maintenance file.
  3. Delete the .maintenance file that you found.
  4. Reload the browser and you should see your site working well again.

One good thing to note: by default, WordPress stores the time a site went into maintenance mode in the .maintenance file, and will stop paying attention to it after ten minutes. That means that if everything is behaving you’ll only have the error message “Briefly unavailable for scheduled maintenance. Check back in a minute.” showing for ten minutes if this does happen to you via an unexpected server hiccup when running an update.

This is usually a caching problem. Please make sure to clear your browser’s cache then try again.
